Plasmon LF6600 user manual Test Mode

TEST MODE

The LF 6600 automatically enters the Test mode each time it is powered on. Power-on selftest diagnostics are run to verify the operational readiness of the drive.

After the LF 6600 successfully passes the power-on selftests, the LF 6600 enters the Operating mode. While the LF 6600 is in the Operating mode, the operator may manually enter the Test mode and invoke the system function diagnostics.

The level of selftest diagnostic coverage is configurable via the "Test Thru:" option in the Diagnostics menu. Lower level tests (numbers 0 through 6) verify basic drive hardware operation.

When errors are detected, the appropriate diagnostic message will be displayed on the DOC. Diagnostic messages are presented to the operator in the form of failed test codes and Field Replaceable Unit (FRU) mnemonics that can be relayed to a CE for repairing the malfunction.

If no problems are detected by the system function diagnostics, the display will show "Diagnostics Complete. Press TEST to restart drive...".

Pressing TEST resets "Test Thru:" value to 00 and initiates selftest again. At the successful completion of the selftest, the LF 6600 is returned to the operating mode, ready for normal operation.
