CHECKOUT GUIDE Modem (DSP) Checkout Note This section is for the built-in modem model. Do the following: 1. Go to the diagnostic menu by selecting Test in the Easy-Setup menu. 2. Select DSP and run the diagnostic tests. 3. If the test detects a DSP problem, replace the modem card. Port Replicator Checkout Use the following procedure to isolate a port replicator problem. The port replicator attaches to the system expansion connector at the rear of the computer: 1. Power off the computer. 2. Remove the failing devices from the port replicator. 3. Unplug the AC Adapter from the port replicator, if attached. 4. Remove the port replicator from the computer. 5. Reconnect the failing device directly to the computer. (If another device is already connected to the computer, remove it first.) 6. Go to the "Running the Diagnostics" on page 40 and run the diagnostics. 7. If the advanced diagnostic device test did not find an error, suspect a problem with the port replicator. 8. Power off the computer and reconnect the port replicator. 9. Power on the computer and run the following advanced diagnostic tests: Serial port test with the wrap plug installed on the port replicator Universal serial bus test with the USB parallel test cable Parallel port test with the wrap plug installed on the port replicator FDD-2 device test on the failing device with a scratch diskette 10. If diagnostic errors appear, replace the port replicator or the diskette drive. If the problem remains after the replacement, replace the system board. 11. If power problems appear only when the port replicator is used, replace the port replicator. Port Replicator Power Overload: If power shutdown occurs intermittently when PC Card devices are used through a port replicator with PC Card slots, suspect an over-current problem. Some PC Card devices use more power; if the maximum usage of each device occurs simultaneously, the total current will exceed the limit, thereby causing a power shutdown.
