    Gathering Troubleshooting Data
    7-5-1 Overview
    There may be a time when it would be advantageous to  capture trouble images and system data (logs) 
    for acquisition through remote diagnos tics (InSite) or to be sent back to the manufacturer for analysis.
    There are different options to acquire this data that would give different results.
    7-5-2 Collect Vital  System Information
    The following information is necessary in order to properly analyze data or images being reported as a 
    malfunction or being returned to the manufacturer:
    Product Name = VIVID 7

    7-5-3 Collect a Trouble Image with Logs
    If the system should malfunction,  press the Alt-D keys simultaneously . This will collect a screen capture 
    of the monitor, system presets and several lo g files in a date and time stamped zip file.
    NOTE: Power Supply and Temperature logs are  not currently being updated by the Vivid 7.
    This Alt-D function is available at all times.
    When Alt-D is pressed, a menu  box appears that allows for;
    • a place to enter a description of the issue
    • a check box to indi cate a System lockup
    • a choice to Export to a pre-formatted MOD, CD-RW or save to the Export directory D: drive (for  remote viewing through InSite).
    NOTE: NOTE: You  MUST select one of the available devices as the destination device if it is to be 
    different than the default Expor t directory on the hard drive.
    The screen captur e is a bitmap which eliminates the po ssibility of artifacts from compression.

    Diagnostics Tools
    7-6-1 Diagnostic Procedure Summary
    7-6-1-1 Purpose of this Sub-Section These software based diagnostics tools are available on Vivid 7:
    •Common Service Diagnostic Interface (GSUI)  and
    • Vivid 7’s Front-End System Test
    To be able to use these Service Tools, the Back-End  Processor must be up and running to some extent. 
    If the Back-End Processor doesn’t  starts, it’s not possible to use the software service tools! 
    A typical approach would be to first log on to the  GSUI and run the tests there. If the Acquisition test 
    fails, it is time to switch to Vivid 7’s Front-End System Test.
