SpecView Write Errors

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

 

In general, if you get an error code in a data entry box such as
err18210

SpecView has failed to write the value correctly. The most common cause is that the value being sent is outside the acceptable range for that parameter. Check that any limits are not being exceeded for that instrument. (Try entering the value on the instrument itself) The error codes below may help. Contact your SpecView distributor if you cannot resolve the problem.

There are also generic Error Codes

These error codes can be returned when attempting to write data to a parameter:

3        Timeout - Response not received from instrument

18000 Internal IDF Error - Seek advice from SpecView

18001 Address too long - Too many Characters in the address field

18002 Address too short - Not enough typed in

18003 Address is invalid for this Protocol

18004 Incorrect information after the comma

18005 Precision specification is incorrect

18006 Parity Error at Instrument end

18007 Rx Overflow on Instrument

18008 Rx Overrun at Instrument end

18009 Instrument message was corrupted

18010 Tx Buffer overflow at Instrument

18011 Instrument message was corrupted

18012 Parameter value was incorrect for this parameter

18013 Internal IDF Error - Seek advice from SpecView

18014 Rx Buffer overflow at Instrument

18015 Instrument message was corrupted

18016 Write to read only parameter

18017 Internal Instrument Error (Yokogawa) RJC error

18018 Internal Instrument Error A/D Converter Failure

18019 Parameter value was incorrect for this parameter

NOTE:  With Yokogawa UT550 and UT750 the setpoint is a read only variable. To change the SP you must edit Target SP 1-8, which are available on the parameter list.

18020 Parameter value was incorrect for this parameter

18021 Internal IDF Error - Seek advice from SpecView

18022 Rx Buffer overflow at Instrument

18023 Internal Instrument Error - Controller Busy

18024 Data Over Range

18025 Data Under Range

18026 Internal Instrument Error - Burn Out

18027 Internal Instrument Error - Unknown - Seek Advice

18028 Channel or Loop Number incorrect, or Internal IDF Error - Seek advice from SpecView

18029 CPU Number Invalid

18030 Operator Panel Address Invalid

18031 Invalid Delimiter

18032 Invalid Time To Live

18033 Read To Write Only Parameter

18034 Protocol Type Invalid

18035 Invalid Time

18036 SV ValueNotPresent:  Some controllers (notably Eurotherm) return 0x8000 or 0x80008000 as a value when the parameter has not been set-up or is not present in this particular model. Therefore this is a warning rather than an error.

18037 SV No Comms Back Off:  Some drivers such as the Modbus & OPC drivers report errors but 'know' that new values are imminent, therefore they are really just warnings, hence this 'error' does not cause a Comms Back Off
