On the Diagnostics screen, check boxes arranged according to hierarchy levels are displayed adjacent to related test targets. Selecting the box adjacent to the All Packages enables testing of all packages. Selecting a box in the next lower hierarchy removes the check mark from the All Packages target and enable testing of all of the targets in the hierarchy located below that checked target. Placing a check in a single box located at the lowest hierarchy causes only that target to be tested. When check marks have been entered in the boxes for the targets that are to be tested, select the Execution button to test the selected targets. When the pattern check for the host module, E module, or the DIMAQ-IP is performed, power off the system and power it up, to reboot the software. Observe the monitor as the testing progresses; pass-fail results will be displayed in the window located to the right of the diagnostic list.

Rebooting the System

0

Powering off and then powering on the G50 or the G60 S system performs a complete “hard” or “cold” boot of all subsystem software. Perform a “hard boot” in the event of system lock-up. Performing a “soft boot” is not recommended. A “soft boot” only reboots the system Host, but does not reboot the DIMAQ-IP.
