Diagnostic Messages Display Targets
Additional fields/targets available on this display and their use are:
OPERATOR By default, OPERATOR messages are displayed (those which cause
the DIAG target to flash). To change the message format, use the pull-down menu to
select either OPERATOR, ALL MSGS - TEXT, ALL MSGS - CODE, and ALL
MSGS - ALT. In the ALL MSGS formats, all messages are displayed, including
minor problems, which may have led up to an actual failure. In the ALL
MSGS-TEXT format, AP error codes are translated into text (as is done for operator
messages). In the ALL MSGS-ALT format the fixed error code is translated into
text indicating the operation being performed by the package that generated the
message. In the ALL MSGS-CODE format, all codes are given numerically.
If you need to contact Technical Service for help, it is important to provide them
with as much information as possible concerning the observed problem and actions
attempted. The ALL MSGS - CODE, for example, identifies the AP code that can
be found in the Diagnostic Error Messages user manual to determine the cause and
effect of a problem as well as the action to be taken.
DEVICE/SUBDEV The current device/subdevice ID (in the upper left) indicates
for which node messages are displayed or highlighted. The subdevice ID also
indicates the subdevice for which data is shown on subsequently called up displays.
To view another Device/Subdevice, select the appropriate object and use the context
menu.
EMPHASIS MODE The emphasis mode determines whether messages from the
selected source are the only messages shown (SHOWING ONLY) or are
highlighted to distinguish them from others (HIGHLIGHTING). To change the
emphasis mode, use the pull-down menu to select either the SHOWING ONLY and
HIGHLIGHTING modes. The messages displayed or highlighted are further limited
by the emphasis source. The effect of the emphasis mode and source is described
below.
