to
press EXECUTE after entering
the
reply (Y,
N,
B,

Line 2 The
MOl
section number (described under Diagnostic Run Summary Chart
in
this section).
Lines
12, 13, 14, 15 The
bottom
right
of
the display screen shows the data used
to
make
the
decision. TEST defines
the
type
of
comparison used for
the
decision. The comparison
is
made between
the
data
defined by
MASK
and RCVO.
MASK
is
used
to
refer
to
either expected
data
or a mask for bit
comparisons. RCVO refers
to
the
data
that
is
returned from
the
section and can be data, status,
or timing information.
MASK
and RCVO refer
to
data strings between 1 and 24 characters.
The three classes of test are:
1.
Bit comparisons (bits on, bits off, bits
not
on,
bits
not
off) compare
the
RCVO
data
against
the
bits
that
are
on
in
the
mask. Zero bits
in
the
mask
are
don't
care bits.
2. Magnitude comparisons (low, high, equal, not equal,
less
than
or
equal, greater
than
or
equal) compare
the RCVO
data
against
the
mask.
3. Within limits compares
that
the
RCVO
data
is
with-
in
the upper and lower limits specified by the mask.
A yes
or
no decision
is
made based
on
these results.
