RT Resident POST
When power is first applied, initial self tests
are performed by built it ROM routines and special processor on the system
planar board. These self tests should complete with in 1-2 minutes.
The tests labeled 'fatal' indicate that if this code remains for more than
five minutes, indicates that component has failed.
Numbers display on the two-digit display to track the
progress of the POST programs. Some tests may run so quickly that the numbers
may not be visible.
Note: I have seen tests 14,15,16
and 17 last for up to three to four minutes, depending on the number
of hard disks and/or floppy drives connected to the installed adapters.

Notes:
The following chart is for "steady" numbers only. Flashing (about
one second) numbers are for software failures. See page 2-19 for flashing
numbers during the diagnostic checkouts.
When u is shown in the chart, it is displayed in the upper
half of the two-digit display.
