Figure 11: Output from the SHOW CFLASH TEST command, when no test is
running.
To test a card, insert the card and enter:
ENABLE CFLASH TEST START=startnumber END=endnumber
where startnumber and endnumber are positive integers within a cluster range.
The endnumber must be higher than the startnumber. Cluster ranges are
displayed in the output of the SHOW CFLASH TEST command (Figure 11 on
page 31).
The test software will read the file allocation table and display a list of free
sectors. Sectors can be tested as single sectors or as a range. The test will consist
of a write/read/verify cycle.
To stop the test, use the command:
DISABLE CFLASH TEST
To display the testing process while a test is in process, enter:
SHOW CFLASH TEST
Figure 12 on page 31 shows a sample output.
Figure 12: Output from the SHOW CFLASH TEST command, when a test is running.
If used when testing is not active, the previous command displays blank
cluster ranges on a compact flash card (Figure 11 on page 31).
Error messages are displayed when a file write fails. Failure could be due to the
card being removed or an error in the card.
