General Information
1.3 DIAGNOSTIC PROGRAM STRUCTURE
The MDIAG37 is composed of tests that can be run individually or in any combination that you select.
The selected tests can be looped a specific number of times or until you halt them. The tests always run
in ascending numerical order.
Tests 1, 8, and 9 do NOT allow error looping.
1.4 TEST LIMIT A TIONS
This diagnostic is intended to isolate specific RAM and/or EDAC failures. The system to be tested needs
to be functioning well enough to load DUS.
Multiple-bit errors will cause MDIAG37 to lose control over error reporting and the ability to recover
from the interrupt, EXCEPT during Test Section 2. All other test sections will display the following
message:
System Halt 6
CPU memory parity error -- multi-bit error.
The number of the test section in which the halt occurred will also be displayed.
1.5 TEST EXECUTION TIMES
The test execution times vary with the amount of memory.
