Diagnostic Testing
The diagnostic program prompts for the type of wrap test you want to make. You can either test the
adapter using the wrap plug at the 78-pin connector on the adapter, or test the individual ports using a
wrap plug at the end of the cable (testing the individual ports allows you to verify the operation of the
cable also).
The 78-pin connector at the adapter
If you choose to test the adapter without testing the cable, connect the 78-pin wrap plug to the
connector on the adapter. After connecting the wrap plug, start the diagnostic program (if it is not
already running) and respond to the test program prompts for this interface. The diagnostic program
runs the tests without any further intervention.
One or more ports of the cable
If you choose to test the operation of one or more of the ports to the end of the cable, connect the
appropriate wrap plug to the end of the cable for the port you want to test.
Note: Disconnect all connectors on the cable at the device end (not at the adapter) before starting
any wrap tests.
After connecting the wrap plug, start the diagnostic program. When prompted, select the port you
want to test. The diagnostic program runs the test on that port without further intervention.
After the program completes the tests, it prompts for the next test to run. Repeat the procedure for
each port you want to test.
