THE
LEVEL
4 DIAGNOSTIC
PROGRAM
Only one level 4 diagnostic program applies to the
VAX-l
1/730
- EVKAA, a hardcore instruction test.
Digital Equipment Corporation ships this diagnostic program
for
the
VAX-ll/730
on the following
diagnostic distribution media:
• TU58
#7,
labeled VAX
11
HARDCORE INSTR
• RL02
#1,
labeled VAX 725/730 CMPLT
DIAG
• RA60

labeled VAX 725/730 CMPLT
DIAG
• MT

labeled VAX 725/730 CMPLT
DIAG
The method for loading the level 4 diagnostic into memory from the
TU58
tape cartridge
is
different from
loading it from the disk pack.
NOTE
The
level 4 diagnostic cannot be loaded from
MT
#1,
so
all necessary diagnostics must be copied to
the
system maintenance
area
on
the
system disk before
the
diagnostic
can
be used.
Refer
to
Chapter
8
of
the
VAX-ll/730
Installation Guide for the procedure
used
to
copy the diagnostic from
MT
#1 to
the
system disk.
The level 4 diagnostic
is
loaded into memory from the
TU58
tape cartridge by using the console command
language. However, the diagnostic
is
loaded into memory from disk pack with the diagnostic supervisor.
After the diagnostic
is
loaded into memory it
is
executed from the console
I/O
mode with the
START
command.
