5-1 Autotest
Autotest
The Autotest command, from the Load pull-down menu, provides a quick tech-
nical check of the CDT370 board functionality. When you select this function,
the debugger loads the Autotest and a TMS370C756 memory map required
to perform the test. When started, the Autotest software displays the message:
AUTOTEST IN PROGRESS.
At the end of the Autotest (a few seconds), the completion message is dis-
played as:
AUTOTEST SUCCESSFUL
or
AUTOTEST FAILED.
and the original memory map is restored. The autotest program can be run
from the command line of the Command window or in a batch file.
The Autotest software must be run with
No connection to a target system and
No device in the easy extract socket of the target cable.
The Autotest software is not exhaustive.
See Chapter 9,
Repair Guide, for information about what to do if the Autotest
fails.
Note: Autotest Restores the Memory Map, but not Memory
Running the Autotest command erases the symbol table and the CDT370
memory contents.
