Starting the Diagnostic Programs (Netfinity 7000 - 8651)



Starting the Diagnostic Programs

To start the test programs from the System CD-ROM:
  1.  Use the Setup program to define the CD-ROM drive as the First Boot Device.  Refer to 'Defining the Startup Device'.
  2.  Insert the System CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive.
  3.  Power-on the system. Or, if the system is powered on, press Ctrl+Alt+Del

     The system begins the power-on self-test (POST). If a user password has been set, the system  prompts you to enter it.

    NOTE:

    1.  If a user password is set, you must enter it to access the test programs.  If you have set user and administrative passwords, you can enter either one.
    2.  If a configuration error occurs, a prompt appears before the operating system starts  (see 'Configuration Conflicts')

  4.  Use the Up Arrow (  ) or Down Arrow (  ) key to select Run System Diagnostics  from the Startup Menu.
  5.  Use the Up Arrow (  ) or Down Arrow (  ) key to move the  highlighted bar to your desired Startup Menu selection.
  6.  Press Enter


NOTE: To stop running a specific test or stop testing after you have started a test, press Ctrl+Break while the test is running. The test stops at the first possible opportunity.


The Test Window: When you select Test from the Diagnostics Menu, the Test window appears. The Test window allows you to select test modules and define testing parameters. Highlighted selections indicate a module or device selected for testing.
