Appendix D – Programmer’s Interface
for System Diagnostics
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 187). One of four verbosity** settings is specified, which provides either a list of the seven system
components with minimal information (FIG. 117) 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 235).
Verbosity Settings
The verbosity (
v
) settings (
v0
,
v1
,
v2
,
v3
) correspond to the level of detail that will be displayed, with
v0
being the
lowest level of detail and
v3
being the highest level.
