2.10 POWER-ON DIAGNOSTICS

During the start-up sequence, the TRMM-2 performs diagnostic hardware
testing. The progress of this testing can be monitored by connecting an
LM terminal to the COM2 Port. Some examples of the tests performed by
the TRMM-2 are:

•

Memory tests

•

SCC console tests

•

Timer tests

•

Token Ring adapter tests
