Appendix A. Firmware Checkpoint Three-Digit Codes
These three digit codes will appear to the left of the top row on the Liquid Crystal
Display(LCD) which is located on the front panel of the system. The intended use of
the three digit codes is to assure the observer that the Firmware is operational after
power on, and before information appears on the console display; there is no other
diagnostic intent implied by the values of the three digit codes. If an Fxx code
requires any action, it will be listed in Chapter 3, “Error Code to FRU Index” on
page 3-1.
