devices, such as the SM5 or HB7, are not displayed.
The device part number and index for each device along with the zBus chassis
numbers are displayed in the system diagram. The version number of each
programmable device's firmware (TDT Microcode) is also displayed within
parentheses next to each device. See "Updating the Microcode " on page 21-6, for

For RZ devices, the number of installed DSPs detected is displayed on the right side
of the device in the diagram. "{DSP ERROR}" is displayed in red if a DSP is
expected but not identified.
