PC
Inspector, tests system hardware, generates system inventory reports,
monitors power supply voltages, measures system temperature, CMOS
configuration and provides remote logging using on-board serial port.
PC Inspector is unique for it contains many
features not found in other hardware diagnostic cards. PC Inspector runs
diagnostics on your complete system. Simply install the PC Inspector in
any PCI 5 or 3.3 volt slot and power-up the system. Utilizing on-board
FLASH firmware, the card will take over the system after it has completed
POST, automatically performing complete system diagnostics. The
diagnostics can be run on each component individually or set to run in an
unattended burn-in mode. In burn-in mode, select a preexisting script or
create your own. PC Inspector can also be used to acquire detailed system
information and generate an inventory report.
In addition to the firmware, system power
supply voltages can be monitored using on-board LEDs. Voltages are
measured within 2% fluctuations. The power supply voltage reading can also
be monitored remotely using the on-board serial port. The serial port will
output data that can be monitored remotely using HyperTerminal or similar
utility.
PC Inspector is also equipped with two
optional temperature sensing probes. These probes can be placed anywhere
on the system. These probes have a 12 inch reach, ideal for probing
temperature at specific points on the system board. The temperature is
measured in Fahrenheit and Celsius scales simultaneously. Temperature
results are output to a serial port, generating a real time reading.
Finally, PC Inspector has an on-board CMOS
data chip. The data chip is equipped with a battery which has a 10-year
life span. The CMOS data chip provides the user a complete CMOS utility.
This chip has numerous CMOS functions. It has the ability to copy CMOS
settings from a target PC to the card. Later this data can be written to
multiple PC's. It can also be used to compare CMOS settings from a target
PC to a test PC.This function can be a time saving tool for rewriting CMOS
settings on new builds or comparing CMOS settings on a series of systems.
The above features make PC Inspector a must
for any burn-in environment. You can set up CMOS, perform system
inventory, and run a complete system diagnostics. With its remote
capability, all test results, including temperature and voltage details
can be routed to a remote PC

System Board testing |
|
Continuos loop testing
verifies proper operation of CPU, FPU, DMA channels, interrupts,
timers, BIOS, keyboard, and other I/O functions. Full testing of CMOS
Clock functions is also done. |
|
RAM Testing |
|
Performs the most
comprehensive tests available for Base and Extended Memory (up to 2
gigabytes). Performs over 24 different patterns of tests standard and
proprietary algorithms. Provides graphic display to pinpoint exact
location of failure. Newly improved to test the latest SIMMs, DIMMs,
RIMMs,(SDRAM 66-133, DDR, DDR/2, RDRAM(RAMBus), SRAM, ECC, Parity and
Non-Parity) |
|
System Information |
|
Provides a complete
report on the system. Select information for motherboard, peripherals,
IRQ/DMA usage, CMOS, I/O ports, PCI / PnP and Benchmarking. A newly
added feature generates SMI information. This will provide detail
specification of components. For example, if you want to know what
kind of memory you have installed. SMI will return specifics on memory
type, module type, installed size, speed, bank connections and error
status. Ideal for detecting Over-clocked or Remarked CPUs.
|
|
Operating System Independent |
|
It can directly run using
Self Boot Technology without the need for ANY operating system for
superior low level testing |
|
Multi-Processor and CoProcessor Support |
|
Support for up to 8
Processors and CoProcessors |
|
PCI Bus Information and Testing |
|
Full report on PCI Bus
states and usage. Displays current PCI Bus Speed. Identifies each PCI
Bus component separately. Example of information: Device type, IRQ
line used, and memory address occupied. Also includes various PCI Bus
tests. |
|
Up-to-date Systems |
|
Perform sophisticated
diagnostic testing on IBM and compatible PCs, ranging from older 486
machines to the latest Intel Pentium 4, AMD Athlon MP/XP, and Cyrix
processors. |
|
Serial Port Output |
|
PC Inspector is also
equipped with the capablility to output system information, test
results data, and temperature values via a Serial Output |
|
Monitors External Temperature |
|
The card is equipped with
two optional temperature sensing probes. Information is routed through
the serial PORT, generating a real-time reading of the voltage and
temperature. |
|
Tests The Presence Of Clock And Reset
Signals |
|
QuickPOST PCI monitors
the Clock and Reset lines These are the most critical signals a system
needs to begin the boot-up process. QuickPOST PCI uses LEDs to let
users know, if one or both of these signals are not present. |
|
Plugs Into Any PCI I/O Slot |
|
The PC Inspector plugs
into any open PCI I/O slot. Once the system is powered-up ,the card is
automatically begins the Burn-In process. |
|
Incorporated QuickTech Erase Function |
|
Secure deletion utility,
that allows you to wipe your files beyond recovery. Ideal for the
deletion of sensitive material or to wipe your hard drive before
selling/giving away your computer. |
|
USB Port Testing |
|
New autodetect mode
automatically finds all installed ports. The test will also perform an
internal and external (using optional QuickTech USB controller) modes.
During the testing process, it will detail port information and
voltage used and modes supported. |
|
Flash / ASIC Technology |
|
