Problem: Errors 24 and 2 occur after executing Return in error handler

Symptoms
When an error handler is executed for certain errors and Return is executed, the error handler is called again for error 24.
The following program will print error 78 because point P0 is not defined.  Then error 24 will occur when Return is executed and error 24 will be printed. 


Function main
  OnErr eHandler
  Go P0
  End
eHandler:
  Print Err(0)
  EClr
  Return
Fend

Statements that require a point for an argument will exhibit this behavior, including Jump, Go, Move, etc.  When using one of the coordinate functions (CX, CY, CZ, CU), you will receive both error 2 and error 24.

Causes
This is a bug in the SRC-3xx controller firmware.  

Remedies
You can ignore error 24 and error 2 in your error handler.

Status
This problem will be fixed in a future version.
