Chapter 5: Troubleshooting
To run the self-tests
Self-tests identify the correct operation of major, functional subsystems of the module.
You can run all self-tests without accessing the module. If a self-test fails, the
troubleshooting flowcharts instruct you to change a part of the module.
To run the self-tests:
1 In the System window, select System Admin.
2 In the System Administration window, select the Admin tab, then select
Self-Test. At the Test Query window, select Yes.
The tests can be run individually, or all the tests can be run by selecting Test All at the
bottom of the Self Test window. Note that if Test All is selected, system tests requiring
user action will not be run. For more information, refer to Chapter 8 in the mainframe
service manual.
3 In the Self Test window under the System tab, select System CPU Board.
4 Run the floppy drive test.
a In the Self Test: System CPU Board window, select Floppy Drive Test.
b Insert a DOS-formatted disk with 300KB of available space in the
mainframe floppy drive.
c In the Test Query window, select OK.
The Test Query window instructs you to insert the disk into the disk drive. The other
System CPU Board tests require similar user action to successfully run the test.
5 In the Self Test: System CPU Board window, select Close to close the
window.
6 In the Self Test window, select PCI Board. Select Test All to run all PCI
board tests.
7 In the Self Test window, select the Master Frame tab. Select the 16740/41/
42A module to be tested, then select Test All to run all the module tests.
The module test status should indicate PASSED (see screen on next
page).
