System Test Kit 14
1.4.2 Self Test
Each time the test kit is powered on, a Self Test is performed to verify the major components are
functioning properly. The following tests are performed:
•
Memory test – checks the physical memory in the system. At least 20 MB of free memory
must be available after loading the application to ensure the system runs properly.
•
Hardware configuration – checks the data acquisition card status. Two cards must be
installed properly and have the proper device number.
•
Test kit setup – checks the setup files and verifies the software and hardware version of the
test kit.
•
Ethernet connectivity – checks the Ethernet connectivity of the system to ensure the System
Configuration Download Link (USB-to-USB Network Bridge) is working properly.

The test kit will display the test being performed on the screen. If any errors are encountered,
the test kit will generate pop-up messages for the user regarding the type of error. Any issues
must be corrected and the unit restarted before continuing. See
Troubleshooting on page 59 for
help diagnosing issues.
When the Self Test completes successfully, the Main Menu will be displayed.
