Required Parameters
When parameter -F (data file) is specified, NSPDIAG sends the test commands read
from the data file to the device. The command line parameter -S is required to bypass
the Main Menu and start the data file testing. Without parameter -S, the Main Menu is
displayed with the initial values noted in the command line. See
details.
Required Parameters
You must set three required parameters before NSPDIAG can start processing the test
commands and bypass the menu. They are:
1. Device name (-D):
NSPDIAG reads the test commands from a data file and sends them to the device
specified, using the command parameter -D.
2. Either data file name (-F) or batch file name (-B):
The data file can be specified using the command parameter -F or when it is listed
in the batch file, specified using the command parameter -B. The data file name
and batch file name cannot both be specified.
3. Start testing (-S)
This option allows NSPDIAG to bypass the Main Menu and start testing. Without
this parameter, the Main Menu is displayed with specified parameters set. See
for details.
When any of the required parameters (-D, -F or -B) are missing or there is an error on
the command parameters, NSPDIAG displays the explanation of valid command line
parameters. When -S (start testing/ bypass menu) is missing, the Main Menu is
displayed with specified parameters set.
