714044000 | Peripheral device component fault | 11 |
20080263407 | VIRTUAL COMPUTER SYSTEM - To improve the maintainability of a virtual machine system, there is provided a mechanism capable of appropriately reporting a failure that occurs in a dedicated PCI device, in a shared PCI device, or in a virtual PCI device. A device for transferring PCI device configuration information between a failure monitoring application and a hypervisor that monitors a PCI device failure is prepared, and the failure monitoring application is operated in a user virtual machine and in a control virtual machine. Based on the above-described PCI device configuration information, the failure monitoring application operating in the user virtual machine monitors a dedicated PCI device failure and a virtual PCI device failure, and the failure monitoring application operating in the control virtual machine monitors a shared PCI device failure, respectively, thereby appropriately reporting a failure of the dedicated PCI device, the shared PCI device, or the virtual PCI device without duplication. | 10-23-2008 |

20100162050 | FAULT REPLAY SYSTEM AND METHOD - A fault replay system uploads part or all of a log file from a subject system and replays the events detailed within the log file upon physical copies of devices present in the subject system. The replay of the log file events aid the determination of at which event a fault occurred and improves the accuracy of fault determination. | 06-24-2010 |
20100268994 | AUTOMATIC KEYBOARD TESTING SYSTEM - An automatic keyboard testing system includes a computer, an automatic testing program and a testing frame. A keyboard circuit board to be tested in placed on the testing frame. The automatic testing program is installed in the computer for generating a testing signal and has a predetermined time period. The testing frame generates a simulating signal according to the testing signal and conducts a key intersection point corresponding to the simulating signal, so that the keyboard circuit board output a key scanning code corresponding to the conducted key intersection point to the computer. The automatic testing program discriminates whether the key scanning code is transmitted to the computer within the predetermined time period. | 10-21-2010 |
20110060949 | VIRTUAL PRODUCTION TESTING OF LARGE INTEGRATED PRODUCTS - A communications system and method for testing components of an aircraft via Ethernet. The communications system may comprise one or more Ethernet links having software and hardware controls for timing, buffering, and messaging, and a dedicated Ethernet line. The Ethernet links may be configured to communicably link sections of a central communication system of the aircraft, each section being part of a separate aircraft component. The Ethernet links may also communicably link the sections with various databases over the Ethernet line. The databases may comprise loadable software, archived testing data, configuration data, and/or diagnostic data. Any of the central communication system sections and the databases may be located at geographically distant locations from each other, such as at separate production sites. The communications system may allow the aircraft components to test each other, or essentially for the aircraft to test itself prior to its components being physically joined together. | 03-10-2011 |
20110072311 | Method and apparatus for performing external device's diagnostic functions in host computer - Provided are a method and apparatus for performing diagnostic functions of an external device such as a printer, connected to a host computer. The apparatus and method receive information about diagnostic functions supported by the external device from the external device; receive one or more of the diagnostic functions which are selected by a user; request the external device to perform the selected diagnostic functions; and receive the results of the requested diagnostic functions from the external device. | 03-24-2011 |
20130019127 | MOUSE MOTION TRAJECTORY TESTING SYSTEMAANM Chang; Pei-MingAACI TaipeiAACO TWAAGP Chang; Pei-Ming Taipei TW - A mouse motion trajectory testing system includes a testing fixture and an electronic calculator connected to the testing fixture. The testing fixture includes a testing base, a rotatable member under the testing base, and a controlling unit. The testing base is used for fixing the tested mouse thereon. The controlling unit is used for driving the rotatable member to be rotated for a preset number of revolutions at a preset speed, so that the tested mouse generates a motion signal. The electronic calculator has testing program for receiving the motion signal from the tested mouse, thereby judging whether the tested mouse is qualified or not. | 01-17-2013 |
20140082426 | DETECTION CIRCUIT FOR FLEXIBLE PRINTED CIRCUIT CONNECTION INTEGRITY - Provided is a connection detector assembly for detecting a connected state between a keypad and a processor along a flexible circuit. The assembly comprises a keypad with a plurality of buttons, each button including button contacts. A flexible printed circuit having a plurality of electrical traces aligned along a width of the flexible printed circuit and includes a set of two or more button signal traces individually electrically coupled with a first button contact of a corresponding one of the plurality of buttons. A first diagnostic electrical trace and a second diagnostic electrical trace form a diagnostic circuit with one another. A receiving unit receives the flexible printed circuit. A processor electrically couples to the diagnostic electrical circuit performs a diagnostic check of the diagnostic circuit to determine a connected state, the connected state indicating whether or not a failure condition exists along a designated portion of the diagnostic circuit. | 03-20-2014 |
20140082427 | SEMICONDUCTOR INTEGRATED CIRCUIT DEVICE AND MICROCONTROLLER - To have a problem of occurrence of the same failure in failure detection of a microcontroller. A microcontroller has a CPU and a data access control circuit. The data access control circuit performs two types of accesses: an individual access in which a data access of the CPU is performed for each thread, and a shared access in which a data access of the CPU is performed by executing two threads. The data access control circuit detects a failure of the CPU by making a comparison between the command and the address, respectively, in the shared access generated by executing the two threads. | 03-20-2014 |
20140164845 | HOST COMPUTER AND METHOD FOR TESTING SAS EXPANDERS - In a method for testing serial attached small computer system interface (SAS) expanders using a host computer, the host computer connects to a master SAS expander through a first serial port, and connects to slave SAS expanders through a second serial port. The host computer sends a test command to the master SAS expander to test the master SAS expander, and stores the test result of the master SAS expander into a flash memory of the master SAS expander. The host computer controls the master SAS expander to transfer the test command to each of the slave SAS expanders to test each of the slave SAS expanders, and stores the test result of each of the slave SAS expanders into the flash memory. The host computer displays all the test results on a display device of the host computer obtained from the flash memory. | 06-12-2014 |
20140317453 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DOCKING A TEST HEAD WITH A PERIPHERAL - A method and apparatus for docking an electronic test head with a peripheral, which positions devices for testing. Exact-constraint alignment features, also sometimes known as kinematic features, are incorporated to provide repeatable positioning of the test head in three degrees of freedom with respect to the docking plane of the peripheral. A distinct alignment feature is used to provide planarity and to establish the required docked distance between the test head and the peripheral. The exact-constraint alignment features are mounted compliantly to enable them to position the test head in the plane while the test head is away from its final docked distance and to maintain that position as the test head is moved to its final docked position. | 10-23-2014 |
