Video Display Diagnostics

Video Display Mode: Enter either a "V" or "v" from a terminal connected to Port 1.
The PortServer video display diagnostics are controlled from a terminal (or PC
with terminal emulation software) connected to Port 1. This terminal must be set
to 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity.
There are eight tests that can be selected. These tests perform diagnostic checks on hardware
sections of the PortServer.
If "V" is pressed to enter Video display mode, a startup screen appears. The screen displays test
information, and waits for user input.
To start any test, press the appropriate test number. See Basic Test Descriptions on page 74 for
