System Component Information
The Enova DGX Switcher displays system information in the splash screen* for diagnostic purposes.
The information indicates the current status and well-being of the system components.
The splash screen can be accessed using a terminal emulation program, such as the Terminal view in
DGX Configuration Software (see page 173). One of four verbosity** settings is specified, which
provides either a list of the seven system components with minimal information (FIG. 102) or a level of
detailed information on one of the seven components. Only one verbosity setting and one component
setting can be entered in a command. The order in which the verbosity and component settings are
entered is interchangeable.
* AMX reserves the right to add to the contents of the splash screen at any time, without notice.
** Verbosity (i.e., wordiness) refers to the amount of information given; the higher the verbosity setting,
the more information is displayed.
Note: DGX_SHELL commands are another resource for accessing diagnostic information for a
system (see page 219).
