11. Select the test mode. You can select either one-pass or continuous
testing. To toggle modes, move the cursor to the Test Mode field and
press
S
PACE
.
One Pass testing runs the specified test once. Continuous testing runs
the specified test until there is a failure or until you stop the test by
pressing
C
TRL
+
Z
.
Note: There may be a delay before AutoSite responds to the Ctrl-Z if you are
testing system RAM or user RAM.
CAUTION: Executing the System RAM test or the User RAM test erases
all data in RAM.
12. To test all hardware, move the cursor to the
Perform All Tests
prompt and press

Manipulating Keep Current Algorithm Files
The Keep Current service allows you to download new and updated
device algorithms from the Keep Current Bulletin Board System. Keep
Current algorithms are made available to Keep Current subscribers
before they are incorporated in an update kit.
See the
Keep Current User Manual
for more information and for
instructions on downloading Keep Current algorithms.
Accessing the Keep
Current Menu
Before you can manipulate a Keep Current algorithm file, you must
access the Keep Current menu, which can only be done with a full screen
terminal that emulates one of the following:
• ANSI 3.64 compatible terminals
• DEC VT-100 compatible terminals (supported by TaskLink)
• Qume QVT-101 compatible terminals
• TELEVIDEO TVI--910 compatible terminals
• Wyse WY-30 compatible terminals
If you are using handler control software, consult the documentation to
see if it supports one of the terminal types listed above.

AutoSite User Manual 3-25
If you are using TaskLink, your system should already be configured to
access the Keep Current menu; skip to step 9 on the next page. Otherwise,
do the following:
1. Connect the terminal to one of the serial ports on the control unit. The
serial ports are shown in Figure 1-4.
2. Configure your terminal or terminal emulation software to match the
following parameters:
• 9600 baud
•No parity
• 8 data bits
•1 stop bit
See the documentation supplied with your terminal or terminal
emulation software for more information.
3. Power up AutoSite if it is not already powered up. If you power up
AutoSite, wait for AutoSite to complete the powerup self-test. The
self-test LED on the control unit goes out when the self-test is
complete.
Note: The powerup self-test takes approximately three minutes on a 44-pin
AutoSite and four minutes on an 88-pin AutoSite.
4. When the self-test is complete, you will see either the powerup screen
or a single angle bracket prompt (
>)
. If you see the powerup screen,
go to step 6.
5. Type
Z
↵
to display the powerup screen.
6. AutoSite displays the powerup screen and the following prompt:
Current terminal type = DEC VT100 (ANSI 3.64)
Do you want to select a new terminal type? (Y/N)
If the current terminal type matches the terminal type you are using,
press
N
↵
and go to step 8.
If the current terminal type does not match the terminal type you are
using, press
Y
↵
. AutoSite displays the default and current terminal
types and a list of the available terminal types. Select a terminal type
that matches the terminal you are using and press
↵
.
7. AutoSite responds with the following prompt:
Save terminal type as power on default? (Y/N)
Press
Y
↵
. AutoSite saves your current terminal type as the power on
default and then displays the Main Menu, which is shown in
Figure 3-15.
8. From the Main Menu, press
M
,
C
,
K
to get to the Keep Current menu.

9. If you are using TaskLink, access the Keep Current menu by doing
the following:
• Start TaskLink in administrator mode by entering
tl a
at the DOS
prompt. If you are already running TaskLink in operator mode,
exit TaskLink and restart it in administrator mode.
•Select
Programmer Interface
from the
Utilities
menu.
• If you are entering the programmer interface for the first time
since powering up your programmer, the banner screen appears.
Press
↵
to get to the programmer’s Main Menu.
• From the programmer’s Main Menu, press
F1
,
M
,
C
,
K
to get to
the Keep Current menu.
Viewing Keep
Current Files
This section describes how to view a list of all the Keep Current algorithm
files found on the Algorithm disk. Each Keep Current algorithm file has
the extension .KCx, where
x
is a number ranging from 0 to 9.
Note: When viewing a list of Keep Current algorithms, AutoSite does not check
for compatibility between the installed version of system software and the
individual Keep Current algorithms.
To view a list of Keep Current algorithm files found on the installed disk,
follow these steps:
1. Make sure the handler is idle.
2. Access the Keep Current menu as described in the section titled
“Accessing the Keep Current Menu.”
3. Insert the disk with the Keep Current algorithm files you want to
view into the disk drive.
Typically, Keep Current algorithms are downloaded to a separate
disk. If you wish to manipulate a Keep Current algorithm, the Keep
Current algorithm must be copied to the appropriate
Algorithm/System disk.
If you are performing these operations using the MSM,
the Keep
Current algorithm and system (.sys) files must be copied to the
I:
directory. Use the More Commands/File Operations/Copy File
command.
4. Press
V
. AutoSite displays up to 10 files at one time. If there are more
than 10 files, press
C
TRL
+
N
to display the next page of files. Press
C
TRL
+
P
to display the previous page of files.
If you want to view files on another disk, press
F2
, insert another
disk, and return to the beginning of this step.
5. When you are finished, restart your handler control software as
normal or, if you are using TaskLink, press
A
LT
+
F1
to return to
TaskLink.
