Note: See Table 7-2 on page 7-3 for instructions on how to handle
error conditions or for an explanation of any additional display.
Following a successful IPL, display may alternate between an asterisk
(*) and xxxx:Dmpyy where: xxxx = fault symptom code (FSC), and
yy = number of uncollected dumps in the EEPROM.
