When to Use the Embedded System Diagnostics

component failure may be indicated. As long as the microprocessor and the

system's input/output devices are functioning, you can use the embedded

system diagnostics to help identify the problem.

Use the embedded system diagnostics to test only your system. Using

this program with other systems may cause invalid results or error messages.
