Memory Overflow Error

Memory overflow. Trigger state set to Hold. Lower the IF bandwidth, or increase dwell or sweep time.

Severity: Informational

Further explanation: The measurement that you are currently making requires that data be stored faster than it can be processed.  Very few customers will experience this situation.

Suggestions: To limit the amount of data to be stored, try lowering the IF Bandwidth, slow the sweep time, increase the dwell time, or limit the number of data points.  There are many other settings that can be adjusted to solve this problem.

EventID: E8020265 (hex)

Message: 614

"The specified measurement does not have a calibration valid for Confidence Check. Please select a different measurement, or recall or perform a different Calibration Type."

Severity: Error

Further explanation:  The measurement choice is prevented so that calibration will not be turned off.  Not all cal types support all measurements.  For example, an 1-Port cal on S11 can not be used to calibrate an S12 measurement.  When a measurement is selected that does not have a calibration which can be applied, an informational message is displayed and calibration is turned off.

Suggestions:  Use a full 2-Port calibration to be compatible with any S-Parameter.

EventID: E8020266 (hex)

Message: 615
