Shows the Power-On-Self-Test (POST) codes during the system startup.
The POST code is provided by the BIOS and is displayed on the LCD panel
as soon as it is available. If the system stops during the startup, the last
successful boot step POST code is displayed on the LCD. When Boot Steps
is selected, the POST step will be shown on the LCD status panel during the
subsequent boot processes.
To ensure that MaxiLife is ready to display the first POST codes as soon as
possible, the Pre-boot diagnostics are not executed when the system is
booted with the Boot Steps option selected. The following diagram shows
how Boot Steps obtains its information from the BIOS, and then displays a
POST error if needed.
