Figure 5-1. 5250 diagnostics (16 bit).

This diagnostics utility uses the 5250 Enabler program to gain access to the 5250 emulation card. The enabler program will not work on a PCI card using memory above one megabyte, so the 16-bit diagnostics will fail, however the 32-bit diagnostics program will run properly.

5.6.232-BIT WINDOWS DIAGNOSTICS

The 32-bit diagnostics program (diag32.exe) is installed onto a Windows 95/98 machine and should be used instead of the 16-bit diagnostics. The 32-bit diagnostics program will run properly no matter where the emulation card is located in memory.
