SECTION 4
4.0 System
Diagnostics
A
System Diagnostic Mode
shown in Figures 4.1 and 4.2 may be entered during
normal operation from the Setup menu. The entry menu indicates firmware revision
and offers useful routines for testing front panel LED’s, relays, serial ports and analog
I/O. It is exited manually by pressing
NEXT
and automatically if no keys are pressed
for 5 minutes. It is very important to understand that
CHANNEL INPUT DATA IS NOT
PROCESSED DURING THE DIAGNOSTICS MODE
. It is possible to miss
important input values while utilizing this mode and appropriate safeguards
should be in place. However, the Diagnostics Mode can prove invaluable
when testing I/O since relays and analog outputs may be stimulated without
driving inputs to precise levels.
