Processor-Based Tests R
If there is a serious problem or the test was started without a cable connected to either loop
path, you may see the message shown in
Figure D-8 displayed on your terminal window.
Once you type into the terminal window and the test starts, the user can change the default
settings, for example, the internal serial loopback or the parallel loopback, and continue as
shown in
Figure D-9 . The user should note that the test will run until 1000+ frames are
transmitted or until the user types “q” to end the test.
The test automatically terminates once 1000+ frames of data have been transmitted. The
test status is then displayed. If both transceiver channels established a link and if there
were no dropped frames, dropped words, hard errors, soft errors, or framing errors, then
the display reports the two tested transceivers passed, with the message “SATA loopback
test PASSED,” as shown in
Figure D-10 .
To test the third serial ATA port, reconnect the serial ATA cable between the untested serial
ATA host port and the serial ATA target. After reconnecting the cable, the user can restart
the test selecting the other choice from “MGT SATA Test Menu” and repeat the previous
steps.
