Self Test Function

Series 31XX/35XX terminals include a series of self tests which verify that terminal
hardware components are operating properly. Run self test if you suspect a problem
with the hardware. Except for keyboard testing, no operator input is necessary after
selecting a test screen.

Running the Self Test

Access the Self Test function from the Command Mode menu:
1. Boot to command mode (refer to Chapter 4 for boot sequences).
2. On the Command Mode screen, use the <UpArrow> or <DownArrow> to scroll
through the options.
3. Highlight Screen Test and press <Enter>.

Self Test Summaries

The Self Test is divided into five functions or screens:
Config Screen 1 - Reports the terminal type and version, time, date, main battery
status, current power source, and status of the serial ports when a loopback
connector is used.
Config Screen 2 - Reports information on the keyboard and display. If a laser
scanner is attached, the test reports if the trigger is pulled or not. If a wand scanner
is attached, the test reports whether the wand is scanning black or white.
Memory Screen - Tests ROM, RAM, and EMS (Expanded) memory, and reports
the amount of RAM and EMS.
Fill Screen - Fills the entire screen with a test pattern to verify that the entire screen
displays.
Set RTC Screen - Sets the time and date settings of the real-time clock.
