Running the System Diagnostics
Selecting Devices for Testing
The left side of the Customize window lists devices that can be tested. Devices
are grouped by device type or by module, depending on the option you select.
Click the
(+) next to a device or module to view its components. Click (+) on
any component to view the tests that are available. Clicking a device, rather
than its components, selects all of the components of the device for testing.
Selecting Diagnostics Options
Use the Diagnostics Options area to select how you want to test a device. You
can set the following options:
• Non-Interactive Tests Only — When checked, runs only tests that require
no user intervention.
• Quick Tests Only — When checked, runs only the quick tests on the
device. Extended tests will not run when you select this option.
• Show Ending Timestamp — When checked, time stamps the test log.
• Test Iterations — Selects the number of times the test is run.
• Log output file pathname — When checked, enables you to specify where
the test log file is saved.

The tabs in the Customize window provide information about the test and the
test results. The following tabs are available:
• Results — Displays the test that ran and the result.
• Errors — Displays any errors that occurred during the test.
• Help — Displays information about the currently selected device,
component, or test.
