Diagnostic error messages appear when a test program finds a problem with a hardware option. For the test programs to properly determine if a test Passed, Failed, or Aborted , the test programs check the error-return code at test completion. (See 'Return Codes'.)

For application program or operating system error messages, refer to the information supplied with that software package.
