An error message would look similar to the following example: The centralMemoryTest verifies that the central memory in each Loom ASIC is functioning correctly by checking the following: The built-in-self-repair (BISR) circuit in each loom chip does not report failure to repair bad cells. The data cells can be uniquely written and read correctly (data write/read test). The data in any ASIC can be read from any other ASIC (loom connection test). Bad parity can be detected and flagged in the error register and interrupt posted (buffer number error test). Chip number error can be detected and flagged in the error register and interrupt posted (chip number error test). Pressing while Central Memory Test is selected displays a reminder to take the switch offline, if it is not offline. If the message is displayed, take the switch offline. If the switch passes the test, is displayed. An error message would look similar to the following example: The cmiTest verifies that control messages can be correctly sent from any ASIC to any ASIC.
