The Diagnostics menu contains testing functions and printhead reporting selections:
 Hex Dump Mode*
 Options Testing*
 Print Test Rate (min)*
 Sensor Readings*
 Ribbon Sensor Limits*
 iPH Report*
 Flash Module Report*

Items denoted with an asterisk (*) are only accessible through the Advanced Menu.
The menu selections are defined as follows:
DISPLAYED ITEM ITEM DESCRIPTION
HEX DUMP MODE Determines how the printer handles the data received from a host, where:
ENABLE The printer outputs the raw ASCII data it receives without interpretation; no
processing occurs.
DISABLE Processes data normally. (Default Setting)
FILE CAPTURE Saves the incoming data to Module H (USB thumbdrive) if present; otherwise, the
file is stored on Module G. The file name, in the form [dmx_xxx_yyy.dpl], where
the count is automatically incremented for every capture and a unique printer time
stamp (xxx), is assigned.
OPTIONS TESTING Performs printer option diagnostics or monitors and outputs test results, where:
TEST PRESENT
SENSOR
Performs a functional test of the Present Sensor by indicating LABEL PRESENTED
(when a label blocks the sensor) and LABEL NOT PRESENTED (when no label
blocks the sensor). (Note that this test can also be used to check the sensor
function of the Peel & Present option.)
TEST CUTTER Performs a functional test of the Cutter, where:
PERFORM
TEST
001 TIMES
Cycles the cutter blade a selected number of times (0 - 999), with PASS / FAIL
results given for each cycling attempt.
TEST GPIO Performs a functional test of the GPIO port, where:
MONITOR
GPIO INPUT
Displays input signal logic values for Start of Print (SOP).

If unconnected, a zero or one may be displayed.
TEST GPIO
OUTPUT
Displays output signal logic values for End of Print (EP) and Service Required (SR).

To change an output signal state, cursor over the displayed state
to select and then toggle it using the UP or Down Arrow Buttons.
PRINT SIGNAL
INFO
Prints a reference label containing GPIO signal names, pin assignments,
programmed settings, and current signal states.
PRINT TEST RATE
(MIN)
Sets a label-to-label delay interval (0 - 120 minutes) when Test label batch
printing, where:
000 Is the Default Setting.
