Read error codes are presented when using tape with Amstrad CPC computers. The possible read error codes are:

*'''Read error a''': The signal is dropped or timing is incorrect.
*'''Read error b''': CRC error.
*'''Read error c''': Invalid file type / seems to be used with "CAS CHECK". This is where you are comparing data in memory with data written to tape. So effectively a verify that data was written correctly.
*'''Read error d''': Block is too large to fit in the buffer. (given when you do a CAT on large blocks)<br>
