When this is set to HALT, the F2 function key is disabled. Pressing the F1 key causes the
HMC7000 to change to RUN mode and begin executing the installed application. If you do not
press the F1 key when the HMC is in HALT mode, then it will continue to display this screen after
power-up.
Factory Hardware Test Mode (FHWT)
The Factory Hardware Test Mode is used to test and confirm that the hardware of the HMC7000
is in proper working order. These tests operate independently of any project or application
downloaded into the HMC, so they can be useful in determining if a problem is software or
hardware related. None of these tests will erase or corrupt any project that you currently have
in the unit. However, care should be taken to ensure that no power loss occurs during the
performance of these tests.
The following is a list of the hardware tests available in the FHWT:
LCD color display
Display Backlight
Touch screen
Function keys
Function Key LEDs
Power LED
Flash memory
SRAM memory
EEPROM memory
Power Down memory retention test
RTC (real-time clock)
Serial Port tests
USB loopback
Expansion port tests
Buzzer
After you have conducted any of the above tests, you can view a summary of the results on the
HMC screen or download the results to a USB flash drive.
