4.0    SYSTEM TEST PROCEDURE:

  4.1   SYSTEM CONNECTIONS:

       o    Attach terminal (Item 3.1) with cable (Item 3.2) and connect 9-pin
            end to appropriate connector (SERIAL 2 on 440, COM 1 on 240) on 
            rear of system.
       o    Connect keyboard to terminal and install power cables to both the
	    terminal and the system chassis.
            NOTE: IF 220 VAC IS REQUIRED ON THE SYSTEM, MAKE SURE THAT THE RED
            SWITCH AT THE BACK OF THE CHASSIS IS SET FOR 220V AND THAT THE
            220V LINE CORD IS USED.
       o    Power system ON by pushing rod at front of unit.

  4.2   BIOS CONFIGURATION:

       o    System will BEEP and begin running power-on self-tests (POST).
            If system is a 240, you must press a 'LONG-BREAK' on the keyboard 
            (FUNCT + 'B' on 4313 or FUNCT + '2' on 4314) within 5 seconds to
            get display to appear on the CRT (only needed on first power-up).
       o    Carefully observe the self-test messages for any failures.
       o    The SCSI controller will attempt to find any Hard-Disk Drives.
            It should report 'TARGET 0 LUN 0 INSTALLED AS DRIVE:C' and if a
            second drive is present, it reports 'TARGET 1 ... as DRIVE:D'.
            (Unexpected results may point to assembly problems!)
       o    System prompts 'PLEASE ENTER "1" FOR SETUP ...'    Press '1'.  
       o    Review the Set-Up reported on the screen and select each item that
            needs changing to match the entries in the appropriate Table below
            here.  (Items are selected by number).  REFER TO CUSTOMER MSO FOR

       o    At the '#' prompt, enter "diskadd X" and <RETURN> where:
               X =  '1' for 2nd disk on 1st controller or
               X = '10' for 1st disk on 2nd controller, or 11 for 2nd, etc..
       o    Use the "Y" default partition values when prompted and enter new
            partition names for system's 2nd drive as "usr1" and "usr3".
            If doing a 3rd or 4th system drive, choose "N" at default values 
            and make 3rd and 4th drives each a single (full size) partition.
            Name 3rd as "usr4" and 4th as "usr5".
            NOTE: Assigning of drives as 1st, 2nd, etc., is done in order
            of SCSI ID (0 = 1st) for all drives on 1st controller, then in
            order of SCSI ID on the 2nd controller. 

  4.4B  FLOPPY DISK FORMATING AND COPY COMMANDS (IF REQUIRED): 

       o    With the OPERATING SYSTEM TAPE inserted and the terminal at the
            '#' prompt, enter "mbfinstall" and three <RETURNS>, then enter 
            another <RETURN> at the 'O.S. TAPE FORMAT?' prompt. The tape
            should load the EXTENDED FILES menu (3 minutes).  Select menu
            option #5 (UNIX UTILITIES) and <RETURN>.  Enter "Y" to 'ARE YOU
            SURE' prompt.  When menu reappears, enter "S" for START and 
            <RETURN>.

            O.S. will be Shutdown in the next section).  

  4.7    DEMON DIAGNOSTIC TESTS:

   NOTE:   INSTALL THE TOP COVER ON SYSTEM (WITHOUT SCREWS) BEFORE TESTING.
      o     If the system is powered up and in the BOSS VX Operating System,
            at the '#' prompt enter "init 0" and <RETURN>.  The system will
            proceed to SHUTDOWN (takes approx. 1 minute)
      o     If available (and at same revision level as Captive tape), insert
            the CUSTOMER'S DIAGNOSTIC TAPE and REBOOT the system.  Otherwise,
            use the CAPTIVE DEMON TAPE (Item 3.5).
      o     If using the release DIAGNOSTIC TAPE, a prompt will ask for choice
            of DEMON versus DIVE.  Select <DEMON>.
      o     When prompted, press <ESCAPE> and enter the appropriate PUBLIC KEY
            (DMN Key # that comes with the software if loading the CUSTOMER'S
            DIAGNOSTIC, or the Captive Key # if loading CAPTIVE RELEASE or 
            "xyzzy" if loading the SPECIAL (MFG) DEMON TAPE).
       o     The DEMON DIAGNOSTICS should now load.
       o    Remove the DEMON Tape and insert a SCRATCH TAPE (Item 3.9).
            (Ensure the date on tape is still OK for use - tracked by MFG).
       o    If the system has a Floppy Drive installed, insert a scratch
            FLOPPY DISKETTE (Item 3.10).
       o    At the main DEMON menu, select <UNIT TESTING>.
       o    At the TEST menu enter "Q" and <RETURN> (to ensure that all menu
            items are aborted before restarting tests).
       o    Select <MEMORY TEST>.  At the MEMORY TEST parameters prompt,
            toggle <DISPLAY CURRENT OPERATION:> to 'YES' and toggle 
            <LOOP ON TEST(S):> to 'NO'.  All other menu items default is OK.
            (Runs one pass of MEMORY DIAGNOSTICS and stops.)
       o    At the same menu, type <RETURN> then "R" and <RETURN> to "RUN"
            the MEMORY TEST alone.
       o    While running DEMON MEMORY TEST, press the NMI SWITCH (on the back
            of the 330 & 440 or the front on the 240).  Observe that a message
            displays and that DEMON interrupts to the DEBUGGER program.  The 
            message refers to 'NMI' on the 340 & 440 systems but will say 
            'POWER FAIL' on the 240.  CAREFULLY CHECK FOR CORRECT MESSAGES!   
       o    Enter <CONTROL "D"> to exit the DEBUGGER and resume DEMON testing.
            While running DEMON MEMORY TEST, momentarily short across the two 
            (POWER FAIL) pins inside the NMI SWITCH HOUSING (not applicable to
            240 systems).  Ensure that DEMON again interrupts to the DEBUGGER 
            program and a  'POWER FAIL' message appears on the screen.  Enter
            <CONTROL "D"> to return to DEMON MEMORY TESTING.
       o    When one pass of memory testing has completed without errors, 
            enter <IV> twice to return to main menu.  Select <DISPLAY DEVICE
            STATUS>.  Select <MEMORY TEST STATUS>.  Ensure that the MEMORY
            TEST summary shows no errors.
       o    Enter <IV> twice to return to main menu.  Select <UNIT TESTING>. 
            At the TEST menu prompt, toggle <DISPLAY CURRENT OPERATION:> to 
            'NO' and toggle <LOOP ON TEST(S):> to 'YES'; All other menu items
            default is OK.
       o    Enter "Q" and <RETURN> to clear past test selections.  Enter "ALL"
            and <RETURN>.  Enter "U" and <RETURN>.  (After a short delay, all
            devices found by DEMON are selected to run all tests).
       o    Select <PRINTER TEST>.  At PRINTER DEVICE menu, type "Q" to abort
            printer testing (since printer is not connected).
       o    Enter <IV> three times to begin DEMON testing.
     NOTE:  Enter <ESCAPE> and <IV> anytime during testing to get back to
            DEMON menus for status checking or test selection changes.  (All
            previous test selections remain in effect until "Q" is typed to
            cancel those choices).
       o    Log in the DEMON test start time and observe that all devices are
            being tested (by observing screen and Disk/Tape drives).  Allow 
            test to burn-in a minimum of 22 hours. 
       o    Select <DISPLAY DEVICE STATUS> periodically through burn-in period
            to check for errors at main TEST menu screen.  The system passes
            burn-in if, after the number of hours required below, all devices 
            have looped the expected number of passes with NO ERRORS.  (See
            Section 5 for what to do if errors have occurred).
            
                         GPX 240 = 3 Hours (of DEMON)
                             340 = 3 Hours
                             440 = 3 Hours

  4.10  FINAL CONFIGURATION CHECKOUT:

    NOTE:  If the system was set-up and tested with the CAPTIVE SECURITY KEY
           and CONFIGURATION RECORD TAPE, then install the correct CUSTOMER 
           SECURITY KEY and REBOOT the system using the CUSTOMER'S CONFIG
           RECORD TAPE.  Install new CONFIG RECORD and remove tape.
       o    At the '#' prompt enter "rconf" and <RETURN>.  Ensure that the
            configuration displayed on the terminal matches that of the
            CUSTOMER'S CONFIG RECORD.
       o    At the '#' prompt enter "mbfversion" and <RETURN>.  Ensure that
            the  SOFTWARE LEVEL displayed on the terminal matches that of the
            CUSTOMER'S O.S. TAPE.
       o    At the  '#' prompt enter "init 0"  and <RETURN>.  The system will
            proceed to shutdown. (Takes Approx. 1  minute).  Then power OFF
            the system.
    NOTE:  BE SURE TO REMOVE ALL CAPTIVE TAPES, DISKS, AND SECURITY KEYS
           FROM THE SYSTEM AT THIS TIME!!
       o    The System Test is complete.  Return to Assembly Procedure.
 

5.0  ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA

  5.1   DEMON DISK ERRORS:

       o    Some quantity of SOFT disk errors are acceptable; The numbers
            shown below are the allowable RECOVERABLE READ ERRORS (w/o ECC)
            versus the number of loops of the DEMON Disk test for the
            different models of drive:
                                    115 MB    200 MB    380 MB    760 MB
				    ------------------------------------
              minimum number   
              of loops per            11        6         4         2
              recoverable error       
       EXAMPLE:  A 380 MB disk which has 7 (soft) recoverable read-errors
                 over the 22 hour period and had completed 231 loops of the
                 DEMON test (with no other kinds of errors) passes because
                 231 / 7 = 31, which is greater than 4.       
       o    HARD read-errors (non-recoverable) must be isolated by tracking
	    the bad block numbers printed by DEMON at the time of each error
            and then using DIVE to replace those bad blocks.  It may, of 
            course, be a true hardware problem instead.
       o    EXCESSIVE SOFT read-errors may also be isolated by the bad-block
            numbers.  Determine whether a pattern of repeating the same block
            numbers exists and if so, DIVE can be used to replace those 
            marginal blocks.
   NOTE:  It only takes one marginal block (even though it is recoverable) to
          cause the error limits listed above to be exceeded!  Such a marginal
          block might only fail once every 3 loops, but that's still 
          unacceptable.
       o    If using DIVE to replace bad blocks, be sure to write the GROWTH
            block number on a label on the drive with the date.
 

6.0  TROUBLESHOOTING and REPAIR HINTS

  6.1   SELF-TEST OPERATIONS:

       o    There is a P.O.S.T. board that can display errors detected in the
            GPX by self-tests that run prior to displaying anything to the
            screen.
       o    The SELF-TEST diagnostics can be made to LOOP continuously.  If 
            the SCSI cable is removed from the Adaptec controller and then
            the system is powered ON, the SELF-TESTS should loop and run 
            continuously.  A loop counter is displayed at each pass.

  6.2   SCSI PROBLEMS:

       o    Common SCSI problems can be caused by:
              - 50-pin cable installed backwards on one device.
              - Two devices being set with the same ID or one device
                set with the wrong ID.   
              - One device connected to SCSI cable but not to Power Supply.
              - One defective device hanging the bus for other devices.
