DI[AG] PR[INT]
You should then enter how many times you want to run the print
operation. Enter a number between 1 and 65535. Then the following is
displayed:
Type CONTROL_Y to stop the looping.
Any time that you want to stop the diagnostic, press [CTRL]-Y. The
diagnostics prompt will be printed and you will be allowed to enter
another subcommand.
The Print subcommand sends the following string of characters to the
device:
JKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
If TermDSM knows that this test has failed, an error message will be
printed listing the reason for the failure and how many milliseconds the
test ran before failing.
NOTE If the test passes according to TermDSM, then it is your responsibility
to inspect the output of the test to see if it matches the string of
characters listed above. TermDSM cannot know the final outcome of the
test; therefore, the only way to be sure that the test was successful is
through visual inspection.
The diagnostics prompt will be printed on the terminal in order to allow
you to enter another subcommand.
