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