properly. Please make sure the A741 is on-line, since there will be no
feedback by this test. The test pattern is fully generated by the controller

software is not installed.
4.9.3 Test Selection
Inorder to perform the following procedures it only necessary to select the
"t"
from the
LBTEST command list aove. This is where the following tests are located.
4.9.4 Test command – B(utton)
Select "B" from the commands listed
under
"t"
. Same test as pressing the
button on the Little Bear card above.
This time the command is given by
software with minimal interaction with
the controller card. Again, the test print
is generated by the controller.
4.9.5 Test command – P(rint)
Select "P" from the commands listed
under
"t"
. A more comprehensive test.
The LBTEST program will generate a
checker-board test pattern simulating
the normal data transfer. If this test
works o.k., then basically the PC and
the PCI card are working fine.
4.9.6 Test command – F(ifo)
Select "F" from the commands listed under
"t"
. This test is mainly used to
test the communication between the software and controller hardware. If
there are any PCI bus problems this test will fail. (see chapter 4.4.3,
Select
the correct PCI slot for the A741 Repro System card)
