Step 17
D
D

This step
is
to
ensure
that
each key
on
the
keyboard
works
correctly.
The
procedure
is
to
press each
key
on
the
keyboard,
observe
the
character
displayed
on
the
screen,
and
compare
this
character
with
that
shown in
the
keyboard
diagram below
for
the
key pressed.
In
this
diagram
the
keys are shown
with
the
character
that
should be displayed when
the
key
is
pressed.
Remember, go by
the
characters shown
in
the
diagram
not
by
the
characters
on
the
keyboard keytops.
The
cursor will move
tq
the
next
position
on
the
screen as each key
is
pressed. You may press
the
spacebar (blank)
after
each key
is
pressed
in
order
to
see
the
characters more easily as
they
appear
on
the
screen.
Notice
in
the
diagram
that
there
is
a
group
of
keys
at
the
extreme
right labeled
"a"
through
"I".
If
your
keyboard does
not
have
these
keys, cross
them
out
in
the
diagram.
Note: Some keys,
if
held
down
for
about
1second,
will
repeat the character. Also, during the
following
procedure, the
key
marked
CONTROL
in
the diagram must
not
be pressed.
Press,
one
at
a
time,
the
four
keys shown
in
the
diagram with
the
double
characters
mm, nn,
oo,
and pp,
and observe
the
characters displayed. These
four
keys each display
one
character
when
the
key
is
pressed and repeat
the
character
when
the
key
is
released.
Press
the
remaining keys,
one
by
one,
and
check
that
the
character
shown
in
the
diagram for
that
key
is
displayed.
If
the
displayed results differ
from
what
is
shown
in
the
diagram,
turn
the
display
station
off
and
on
again. Wait
for
the
display
to
reappear. Now
retry
this step.
If
the
displayed results
continue
to
be
different,
record this step
on
a
3276/3278/3279
Problem
Report Form (GX23-0201
),
to
be
found
with
the
papers shipped with
the
display station,
and
notify
your
supervisor.

screen.
Pull
out
the
operator panel drawer,
as
described
in
Step 12, until it stops and latches (at
the
first
stop). Check if the Machine Check light
is
off and the Test light
is
off
or
blinking;
if
so, push
the drawer
in
to
its original position; if not, report the symptom on a 3276/3278/3279 Problem
Report Form (GX23-0201
),
to be found with the papers shipped with the display station and
notify your supervisor.
One
of
the following 8-digit numbers should appear
in
the
first row on
the
screen.
11000000 Terminal adapter
is
not attached to the 3276.
11110000 One terminal adapter
is
attached
to
the
3276.
11111100 Two terminal adapters are attached to
the
3276.
11111111 Three terminal adapters are attached
to
the
3276.

The
3276
setup
is
completed.
If
your
display station has
the
Magnetic Accessory
Adapter
feature, a
cable with
connector
is
located on
the
left side
of
the
display. See
the
instruction
book
packed with
the
accessory
to
connect
it.
The
Selector Light Pen, APL,
Text,
and Magnetic
Slot
Reader features may now be checked by
performing
the
applicable checks
in
Section 4
of
the
3276
Problem Determination Guide, which
is
under
the
keyboard cover.
Notify
your
supervisor
that
the
3276
setup
is
completed, and
that
the
3276
communication
cable may
be
connected
to
the
communication facility according
to
the
instructions obtained
in
Step
1.
The
com-
munication cable must be
connected
in
accordance with local regulations.
After
the
communication cabl,e
is
connected,
the
3276
can
communicate
with
the
host.
Note: Retain this document for use
in
the event the units
are
relocated.
