Error Cluster Source and Explanation differ

[mrbean]

I have a routine that unbundles the error cluster and is supposed to append the 'source' string to some status information that had occurred before that point.  I ran some tests and found that the "Source" string differs (provides less information) than what is displayed in the Explanation field of the ErrorOut Cluster.  How do I access the more verbose 'Explanation'?

Hi Mr Bean!

The errors are staded in several .txt files in the National Instrument library on your harddrive, search for *errors.txt and you will find a lot of them.
You can even state your own errors if you Select Tools»Advanced»Edit Error Codes in LV.

I created a simple VI there i use the Error Code Database.vi from the Error.llb to get the description for a specific error code.
