VXI-11 ERRORS
The 8099's ERR LED will blink when the unit detects a VXI-11 protocol or com-
mand error. These can be a command not appropriate for a VXI-11.3 instrument.
Sometimes these are intentionally sent like when the Agilent IO Connection
Expert is looking for VXI-11.2 and VXI-11.3 devices on the network. These
types of errors should not occur when a test program is running. If the user
is experiencing these errors when running a final program, use the ICS Error
Logger to record the errors. Table 5-3 lists the VXI-11 Error Codes
