Procedures
When
you
turn
on the
terminal,
it
performs
a
self-test
to
make sure
it is
working properly.
This self-test operation checks
the
following areas/functions:
CMOS
RAM (a
check
sum of the
terminal's set-up information)
DATA
RAM
DISPLAY
RAM
ROM
VISUAL
ATTRIBUTES (displays
the
test
pattern*)
NOTE:
the
results
of the
self-test
do not
depend
on
whether
or not the
terminal
is
connected
to a
computer and/or
printer;
i.e.,
you can
check
the
terminal
is
working
properly without
first
connecting
it in
your system.
To
turn
on the
terminal:
1.
Plug
the
power cord into
the
proper outlet
or
receptacle.
Make
sure
all
interface cables
are
connected properly.
2.
Set the
on/off
switch
to ON
(rear
"swing"
down).
IF
THE
SELF-TEST FINDS
NO
PROBLEMS,
the
cursor
will
appear
in the
HOME position (the upper left corner
of the
screen).
The
terminal
is
ready
for
use.
*
The
test
pattern shows
all
character
sets,
the
different
video attributes
of
characters,
the
version
number
of the
terminal's
firmware,
and
manufacturer
copyright information.
Ordinarily,
the
test pattern
is not
displayed during
the
power-on self-test.
