7.1 Overview
This chapter describes the diagnostic tests that the customer can perform on the Ingenico
6500. The diagnostic tests allow you to isolate failures in field-installed Ingenico 6500 units.
These tests are part of the operating system and are not changed by applications. The
diagnostics are menu-driven with features that allow a logical progression through the tests.
Once a test is selected, a test or a series of tests will be performed on the selected entity. The
result of the test will be displayed to facilitate diagnosis of the malfunctioning parts.
