Bail-Sensor Test

This tests the following:

 

D

Bail sensor switch

 

D

Electrical Test

The electrical test performs all of the following:

 

D

Carriage communications test

 

D Carriage ASIC test: Values stored in the carriage ASIC registers are

 

 

temporarily stored. All registers are tested by writing, then reading, the

 

 

numbers AA(hex) and 55(hex). When the test is complete, previously

 

 

stored values are restored.

 

D Cartridge interface ASIC test: Verifies the functionality of the cartridge

 

 

interface ASIC.

 

D Cartridge ASIC / carriage ASIC link test

 

D

EEROM checksum

 

D On-board SIMM RAM test

 

D ROM CRC test: Performs a ROM checksum and compares it to a

 

 

checksum value previously stored.

 

D Swath RAM test: Tests the RAM used by the cartridge interface ASIC to

 

 

store the swath.

Input/Output Test

The input/output test performs the following:

D Parallel input/output test: Reads the data and status registers of the Bi-Tronics PAL. (Tests only a small portion of the Bi-Tronics input/output functionality.)

D Serial input/output test: Verifies the ability of the RS-232 interface to send and receive data. This test uses a special loopback connector (part number 07440-60302) to connect the output to the input.
