	E	System Test Error Codes
		This appendix lists error codes that might be returned if a system test diagnostic fails. When the system test fails while the animated boot icon is being displayed, you can display the text window containing the specific system test error message by typing the NMI key sequence (that is, by pressing the ~ key while holding down the Command bar or both Command keys on keyboards that have two).
		Floating-Point Processing Unit (FPU) Tests

	Error Code	Meaning
	41	FPU data registers are faulty.
	42	FPU and CPU intraprocessor data transfer test failed.
	43	FPU arithmetic functional test failed.

SCC Channel Tests

	Error Code	Meaning
	51	Port A SCC/DMA transmit interrupt didn't occur within 0.1 seconds.
	52	Port A SCC chip didn't receive the loopback character within 0.1 seconds.
	53	Port A loopback character doesn't match the character sent.
	55	Port B Tx buffer wasn't cleared after waiting for 0.1 seconds.
	56	Port B non-DMA transmit wasn't finished within 0.1 seconds.
	57	Port B non-DMA loopback character doesn't match the one sent.

SCSI Channel Tests

	Error Code	Meaning
	61	FIFO count doesn't match the number of characters loaded.
	62	FIFO doesn't contain the data that was loaded.
	63	FIFO count doesn't match the number of characters left in FIFO.

Tests that produce the following error codes are executed only if a SCSI drive is installed and the "SCSI test" parameter is enabled.

	Error Code	Meaning
	64	FIFO flush command failed.
	65	Can't load counter with test pattern.
	66	Can't load counter with inversed test pattern.
	67	Configuration register failed.

	82	DMA read of encoded data from the ECC failed.
	83	DMA transfer of corrupted data back to ECC failed.
	84	ECC error count is incorrect.
	85	DMA transfer of corrected data from ECC failed.
	86	ECC corrected data isn't correct.
