To execute the built-in performance verification test
To execute the built-in performance verification test
Besides the powerup tests, there are additional performance verification tests
available. A list of these tests is available with the command "pv -l".
Most of these tests can be invoked from a terminal mode window in a
debugger interface or by telnetting to the probe. The LAN tests can only be
executed through the RS-232 port.
To perform the PV tests from a lan connection:
Disconnect the target cable from the target system, and attach the
1
terminator to the end of the target system cable.
2 To execute the all the tests one time type:
pv 1
(the lan tests will not be executed from a lan connection). The results will
appear on screen.
LAN Tests
The LAN tests can only be executed through the RS-232 port. The
remainder of this section assumes that the tests are being run from a terminal
emulator connected to the RS-232 port.
For the BREAK IN, TRIGGER OUT BNC FEEDBACK TEST, connect a
coaxial cable between BREAK IN and TRIGGER OUT
For the TARGET PROBE FEEDBACK TEST, replace target cable with
feedback connector E3490-61604
Set all of the switches to OPEN.

This is standard RS-232 at 9600 baud which can be connected directly to a 9
pin RS-232 interface that conforms to the IBM PC-AT 9 pin standard.
Use a terminal emulator to connect to the HP processor probe.
2
Enter the pv command.

Options available for the "pv" are explained in the help screen displayed by
typing "help pv" or "? pv" at the prompt. The help screen output will appear
similar to the screen shown on the following page:
