GETTING STARTED
You can follow the diagnostic messages as they appear .
On the left is shown the component reference (24), for
example:
CPU (80C88) PASS
The word PASS appearing to the right of the component
reference means that the test has been successful.
The word FAIL appearing to the right of the component
reference means that the component has failed the test.
The abbreviations used are in English (e.g. CPU =
Central Processing Unit).
Note: A fail message does not necessarily mean that the
system cannot be used. Some errors are transient. In
case of a fail message we recommend you perform a
Hardware
Reset (switch the system OFF and ON again).
If the fail message continues to appear run the
Customer Test (explained in Appendix B).
On conclusion of the diagnostics (which last some
seconds) the LED indicator light (6,A),(7,A) for the
right hand disk drive (12,0) (under the LCD) comes on.
This indicates that the system is looking for a
diskette in the disk drive. While it is doing so, the
green indicator light remains lit. ( Never try to
insert a diskette in, or remove one from, a disk drive
while the green light is on.)
This will last some seconds, and then the following
message will appear:
Insert syste. disk for drive A:
and strike any key when ready.
This message means that the system is now awaiting an
operating system diskette (or a diskette with the operating
system and application software) in disk drive A (the
right-hand disk drive).
