HP MaxiLife® Hardware Monitoring HP MaxiLife Test Sequence and Error Messages Diagnostics Runs a set of diagnostics assessing the system's components. Results of the tests are displayed on the LCD status panel, one after another when the LCD buttons are pressed. For HP MaxiLife to access the status of some of the components, the power supply has to be in the ON state. If the system is turned off when Diags is launched, a menu will be displayed, requesting an authorization to power on the PC. It is possible to cancel the diagnostic process and return to the previous state by pressing the LCD key labelled "Back". When "GO" is selected, the main power supply is started but the PC is not allowed to do a normal boot. The purpose of this is to allow only these devices that can be tested to answer the diagnostic request from HP MaxiLife. Components are tested in sequence when the "Next" button is pressed. When they have all been checked, a diagnostic screen is shown. Depending on the result of the diagnostics, the screen could indicate either: OK or FAIL. At the end of the test, you can exit the diagnostic mode by pressing the LCD button. If the power supply was off when the diagnostics was started, it will be turned off again. The following diagram shows how the "Power On" is activated when the main power supply of the PC is turned off. 12
