Using TroubleShooter Diagnostic
Software
The TroubleShooter diagnostic program is included with the Ether-
Talk drivers on the Asanté EtherTalk Installer diskette. The program
runs diagnostic tests on the adapter to help you identify problems
on the adapter. It also provides configuration information about the
Macintosh and the adapter, such as its Ethernet address.
Running TroubleShooter Diagnostics
The TroubleShooter diagnostic program reinitializes and reconfigures
your Ethernet connection and sends out data through the Ethernet
port. Therefore, before you run TroubleShooter, you must:
•
Save all open files and close all active applications.
•
Log out of any active network services.
•
Change from EtherTalk to LocalTalk.
•
Turn off virtual memory with System 7.
•
Restart your Macintosh with virus software, extensions, and
inits disabled.
The following sections provide instructions for these operations.
Changing from EtherTalk to LocalTalk
1
Drag any remote volumes into the Trash.
2
Change from EtherTalk to LocalTalk by clicking the Local-
Talk icon in the network control panel.
3
Disable virus software, extensions, and inits.
4
Restart the Macintosh.
