Rack Diagnostic Counters
The rack diagnostic counters contain information about the operation of each
partial rack. The rows are racks, from 1…76 octal. There are four groups of
counters per rack, corresponding to the four possible starting I/O groups for
a rack.
The following table lists the rack diagnostic counters’ descriptions.
Monitor Diagnostic Counters in Adapter Mode
Follow this procedure to monitor diagnostic counters in adapter mode.
From the Monitor menu, choose Diagnostic Counters.
The 1756-RIO-ADPT DiagMon window displays. Notice that the Rack Status
Table and the Global Diag Counters are the same in adapter mode as scanner
mode diagnostics. The BT Global Update; however, shows the diagnostics for
the BTRs and BTWs in adapter mode.

Tout
This counter increments when the 1756-RIO module sends a packet to this rack and does not receive a reply within the
