Series 500 Multi-seat System
Use the turn-on procedure listed above and observe that the monitor
screen "flashes" as the 98700 powers up. If the screen does "flash" then
turn the computer ON. These loader messages should appear on the
monitor of the Graphics Display Station (GDS) whose DSB is in the
lowest numbered slot (=GDSO):
Loader revision 4.1
Testing Memory ...
Looking for a System ...
HP-UX Model 530/540 Release 5.00 (97089C)
Load Done
If the loader messages do not appear, check the other two GDS monitors.
If the messages appear on one of the other GDS monitors (GDSI or
GDS2) then the DSB for GDSO or its interconnect cable is defective.
(If the loader messages appear on the monitor for GDS2, then the DSB
cards or cables for GDSO and 1 have a problem.) If the loader messages
appear on a terminal connected to either the 27130A (MUX) card or
27128A (ASI) card, then that indicates that the loader ROM was unable
to talk to any GDS in the system because of DSB card or cable problems.
If the system must be powered down do so during the "Testing Memory"
period.
After assuring that the loader ROM messages are appearing on the ap-
propriate GDS, allow the system to completely load HP-UX operating
system. Look for the HP-UX copyright messages on the system console,
and the login prompts on all other terminals and consoles.
