I/O errors that may occur during a test

Introduction

During a test, there are various parts of ANY-maze that may generate errors. For example, a procedure may attempt to set something to an invalid value, or an I/O device might generate an error (perhaps a switch didn't activate, or a pellet dispenser failed to dispense a pellet).

All errors and warnings that occur during a test will be written to the Errors & Warnings panel for the apparatus on the Tests page.
