On-Line Diagnostic System (Sherlock)

by Mariano Nunez Commercial Systems Division

The Sherlock diagnostic system is made up of a user interface program that provides access to the diagnostic programs, a diagnostic system monitor that provides control and logging functions, and a diagnostic system library (XL.DIAG.SYS) that provides a standard interface for all diagnostic program developers.

The Sherlock system will add support for the 997 system. This will also include support for the 4X memory for all 9x9 systems.
