Appendix B – Programmer’s Interface
for System Diagnostics
System Component Information
The Precis SD displays system information in its splash screen* for diagnostic purposes. The
information indicates the current status and well-being of the system components.
The splash screen can be accessed using a terminal emulation program, such as HyperTerminal
(see page 21). One of four verbosity** settings is specified to provide a level of detail for information on
five system components. Only one verbosity setting and one component setting can be entered in a
command. The order in which these two settings are entered is interchangeable.
Note: In a multi-enclosure system, the splash screen displays information only for the enclosure that
is connected directly to the PC.
* AMX reserves the right to add to the contents of the splash screen at any time, without notice.
** Verbosity (i.e., wordiness) refers to the amount of information provided; the higher the verbosity
setting, the more information is displayed.
