2. Press [Enter] at the [menu] prompt and enter the administrator password.

3. Press the spacebar until “Diagnostics” is displayed under “Extensions” at the

lower right.

4. Select the letter corresponding to “Diagnostics”.

5. Wait a few seconds while the StorEdge builds the diagnostic.

6. Select option “2”, “Send Email”.

7. Select option “1”, “Edit problem description”.

9. Select option “8”, “Send Email”.

Diagnostic is sent

diagnostics to a file on the StorEdge. To do this, use Steps 1-5 above to access the
“Diagnostics” menu.
