Using Wesmaint - GE D25 User Manual

GE Grid Solutions

Using WESMAINT

On-Line Start- When the D25 is powered-up or restarted, internal processes perform a series
up Test
of routines, starting with self-tests, followed by the spawning of all the
software applications that reside in the unit's memory.
Many of these processes will output progress messages to the 68K monitor, as
they are performed. Having a terminal set up to view these start-up messages
can provide useful information about the operational status of the unit.
Terminal emulation software is not part of the D25 system, but terminal
Note
software, such as SGConfig's Terminal Emulator, can be used for viewing
system messages.
For complete instructions about using the emulation software in your stand-
alone PC or laptop, refer to the documentation provided with the software.
