Setting the Run Time Parameters
The tests you select will run in the following manner unless
you change the run time parameters:
3
Each test is performed one time (passbound)
3
The program waits if an error occurs
0
No errors are recorded to the printer, disk, or other
device.
If you want to change the default run time parameters, press
F2 to move to the Run time parameters window. (Press
Ex
at
any time to exit and return to the submenu of diagnostic
tests.)
The first run time parameter specifies the mode in which to
run the test. You see this prompt:
Testing mode: (T)imebound / (C)ontinuous /
(P)assbound ? P
In Timebound mode, the program runs the tests for the
amount of time you specify; press
T
and then
Enter.
In Continuous mode, the tests run until you interrupt them;
press C and
Enter.
In Passbound mode, the program runs the tests the number
of times you specify. This is the default setting; press
P,
if
necessary, and
Enter
to select the mode.
The next option is:
Wait on error (Y/N) ? Y
Press Y, if necessary, and
Enter
if you want the program to
pause when an error occurs. This lets you view the error
message, make note of it, and then press
Enter
to continue.
(Y is the default setting.)
