System Diagnostics
The Hardware Diagnostics and Functional Verification context within the
TapeStation Controller software offers you advanced instrument diagnosis for
routine confirmation of the system functionality and troubleshooting
purposes.
Software Installation Verification evaluates computer specifications and verifies
that all components have been installed correctly. Using a dedicated
TapeStation Test Tape device (see “TapeStation Test Tape” on page 118), you
can check the performance of electrical and optical components using a System
Verification (see “System Verification” on page 116) or more extended Hardware
Troubleshooting tests (see “Hardware Troubleshooting” on page 117). The
Software Installation Verification is included in the System Verification, which is
itself included in the Hardware Troubleshooting tests.
Test results can be stored, reviewed and used for the generation of PDF
reports on the tests (see “Reviewing Test Results” on page 122). By default
result files from these test suites are collected into exported log files for
remote support purposes (see “Collecting Troubleshooting Information” on
page 221).
