The procedures described in this manual are intended to help service technicians isolate faulty Field Replaceable Units (FRUs) and replace them in the field. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Four types of messages are used in this manual to bring important information to your attention.
The manual is divided into the following parts: Chapter 1 Hardware Overview describes the M100 Series system unit and each FRU. Chapter 2 Troubleshooting Procedures explains how to diagnose and resolve FRU problems. Chapter 3 Test and Diagnostics describes how to perform test and diagnostic operations for maintenance service. Chapter 4 Replacement Procedures describes the removal and replacement of the FRUs.
Some operations require you to simultaneously use two or more keys. We identify such operations by the key top symbols separated by a plus (+) sign. For example, Ctrl + Pause (Break) means you must hold down Ctrl and at the same time press Pause (Break). If three keys are used, hold down the first two and at the same time press the third.

3. Tests and Diagnostics 3.1 The Diagnostic Test This chapter explains how to use the Test & Diagnostic program to test the functions of the (Base on Minnesota 10M&10MG T&D version 1.0) hardware modules. The Test & Diagnostic Program is stored on the T&D diskettes. The program consists of a series of tests that run automatically when the Diagnostics Program items are selected and executed. NOTES: To start the diagnostics, follow these steps 1. Check all cables for loose connections. 2.
You will need the following equipment to perform some of the Diagnostic test programs. The diagnostics diskette (2 pcs) A formatted working diskette for the floppy disk drive test (Floppy Disk Drive Test) A data CD disc (ODD Test) A LAN loopback The following sections explain how to execute the Test & Diagnostic Program and detail the tests within the program.
3. Tests and Diagnostics 3.2 Executing the Diagnostic Test DOS is required to run the DIAGNOSTICS PROGRAM. To start the DIAGNOSTIC PROGRAM, follow these steps: 1. Insert the diagnostics diskette #1 in the floppy disk drive and turn on the computer. (The diagnostics diskette contains the DOS boot files.) And then follow the instructions to swap with the diagnostics diskette #2 for T&D program installed in RAM driver. NOTE: To execute the CD test, make sure the CD is installed in the ODD drive.
