Step 2. Loading the Diagnostic Programs

1. Stop all application programs running on the operating system.
2. Stop the operating system (If help is needed; call your 800 support number).
3. Power the system off.
4. Set the key mode switch to the Service position.
5. If you want to run the diagnostics with removable media, and are running the diagnostics
from a terminal attached to an S1 port, continue with this substep. If not, go to substep 6.
– The tty terminal must be attached to the S1 port on the system unit.
– The attributes for the terminal must be set to match the defaults of the diagnostic
programs. (For more information regarding attributes refer to "Using the Diagnostics"
on page 5-1.
– Before changing any settings, record the normal settings, and be sure the terminal
attributes are set to work with the diagnostic programs.
6. Power the system on.

The DIAGNOSTIC OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS should be displayed.

environment before you can continue with the diagnostics. This is a separate and
different operation than selecting the console display.

Diagnostic Routines option on the FUNCTION SELECTION menu.
Note: If you want to do a more complete checkout including the use of wrap plugs,

menu.

SELECTION menu.
