4.2. Troubleshooting Please take note of the following two points with regard to troubleshooting: 1. Know-how of diagnosis upon occurrence of heavy troubles, e.g. ‘Set cannot be turned ON’, ‘Set fails to start’, ‘No display on screen’, etc. 2. Explanation of each trouble, mainly symptom of trouble in operation. Flow Chart Pay attention to the following points when in pursuit of the cause of a troubleshooting.
5 Power-On Self Test (Boot Check) Outline of POST The set has a boot check function called POST (Power-On Self Test) in it. The condition of the main body is diagnosed by checking beep sound or error code. z Start .....Test begins automatically when power switch is set to ON. z Normal finish ..After memory checking, a beep sound is issued once and the set is placed into automatic stop.
6 List of Error Codes <Only when the port replicator is connected> The following is a list of the messages that BIOS can display. Most of them occur during POST. Some of them display information about a hardware device, e.g., the amount of memory installed.

02D0 System cache error - Cache disabled Contact Panasonic Technical Support. 02F0: CPU ID: CPU socket number for Multi-Processor error. 02F4: EISA CMOS not writable ServerBIOS2 test error: Cannot write to EISA CMOS. 02F5: DMA Test Failed ServerBIOS2 test error: Cannot write to extended DMA (Direct Memory Access) registers. 02F6: Software NMI Failed ServerBIOS2 test error: Cannot generate software NMI (Non-Maskable Interrupt).
7 Self Diagnosis Test As for the self-diagnosis test(PC-Diagnostic utility) to use this model, a standard test and the enhancing test by the module of the main body building in are possible. Notes To skip BIOS password Use <Ctrl>+<F10> key to skip BIOS password or authentication of fingerprint. This key is only for entering DIAG mode.
