Parameters
auto-page This option provides the ability to continue testing and displaying test
results, by providing a new screen every time the SAT screen is filled
with test results. The screen does not scroll to accommodate new
results; instead a new screen is provided after the current screen fills
up.
If the auto-page option is not specified, the SAT screen will not be
refreshed once it is filled with test results and testing will stop until the
user enters the "PAGE" key to continue or the "CANCEL" key to halt the
testing.
failures This requests that only the failures be displayed on the screen. All
passes will not be displayed on the output screen. Hardware failures as
well as aborts, conflicts and EPN-down failures will be displayed.
step This option will allow the user to step to the next or previous alarm and
not have the current alarm tested. When this option is specified, the
user is presented with the alarm information and prompted for a
keypress. The user may enter CANCEL to abort the command, ENTER
to test the currently displayed alarm, NEXT ALARM (function key) to
move to the next alarm, PREV ALARM (function key) to move to the
previous alarm without testing the currently displayed alarm. If this
option is given, then the NEXT ALARM (function key) or PREV ALARM
(function key) may be pressed at any time during the command (even
during test results). If the NEXT ALARM or PREV ALARM is pressed
during a test, the test is aborted, testing of the current alarm stops, and
the next alarm or previous alarm is displayed. If the first alarms is
displayed, and the PREV ALARM is pressed, then the last alarm is
displayed. Also, if the last alarm is currently displayed, and the NEXT
ALARM is requested, then the first alarm will be shown.
NOTE:
When this option is given the only way to terminate this command
is to press CANCEL.
short This will cause the command to execute a series of nondestructive
diagnostic tests.
