Perhaps you're seeing messages something like this?
IEC501A M 0402,TP4105,SL,,BJMSOD1,EASYSORT.STEP2,OD.SADET.G2001V33
Almost without exception, messages that appear on your console are
prefixed with a unique message number ("IEC501A" in the example above).
If you have "Messages and Codes" books available to you, you can look up
this message to get a detailed description.
If you don't have access to the books (either paper or on CD), you can
try to look up the message number online with IBM's LookAt service:

(though the service appears to be down just this moment -- sigh).
