DSKY lamp test

At the DSKY, key in V35E. This will light up all of the DSKY annunciators, display 88 or +88888 in all of the numerical registers, and flash the 88's in the VERB and NOUN areas. After about 5 seconds, the test stops—you can tell, because the flashing stops, though the numbers remain—and you can continue.

When the accompanying screenshot was taken, I didn't yet know how the AGC controls the DSKY's STBY and RESTART indicators, so those weren't turned on by the test. Because of a bug in the simulator (as of 07/19/04), the PROG indicator doesn't re-light after the lamp-test completes. Therefore, you may or may not see the PROG indicator lit if you try the sample operations below.
