Display Previous Diagnostic Results

Note: This service aid is not available when you load the diagnostics from a source

other than a hard disk drive or a network.

This service aid allows a service representative to display results from a previous
diagnostic session. When the Display Previous Diagnostic Results option is
selected, the user can view up to 25 no trouble found (NTF) and service request
number (SRN) results.

This service aid displays Diagnostic Event Log information. You can display the
Diagnostic Event Log in a short version or a long version. The Diagnostic Event Log

and Page Up keys to scroll through the information.
