Power Loss During User RAM" Test may Corrupt User RAM
User RAM performs a read/write test on Random Access Memory
(RAM) to determine its ability to store data. The results are displayed on
the terminal's display panel.
Attention Loss of power during this test could result in loss of
the application data stored in battery-backed memory. If this
occurs, you will have to repeat the downloading process.
Degauss (color terminals only) demagnetizes the terminal screen.
System RAM Test performs a read/write test to a portion of the
Random Access Memory (RAM). This test is similar to the User RAM
Memory option, but does NOT test the battery-backed RAM, where the
application file is stored. This keeps your application file from being
corrupted even if the power is accidentally cut midway through this test.
Memory Checksum performs a checksum test of all memory and
displays the results.
