The Use of Diagnostic Tools in testing
installed hardware components and
other peripherals
Diagnostic tools are used to test
and diagnose equipment
Digital multi meter
is a device that can take many types of
measurements.
It tests the integrity of circuits and the quality
of electricity in computer components.
 A digital multimeter displays the information
on an LCD or LED.
loopback adapter
 also called a loopback plug, tests the basic
functionality of computer ports.
The adapter is specific to the port that you
want to test.
toner probe
The toner part is connected to a cable at one
end using specific adapters, such as an RJ-45,
coaxial, or metal clips.
The toner generates a tone that travels the
length of the cable.
 The probe part traces the cable.
 When the probe is in near proximity to the
cable to which the toner is attached, the tone
can be heard through a speaker in the probe.
Toner Probe
Software Tools
 Like hardware tools, there are a variety of
software tools that can be used to help
technicians pinpoint and troubleshoot
problems.
 Many of these tools are free and several
come with the Windows operating system.
Disk Management Tools
 Software tools help diagnose computer and
network problems and determine which
computer device is not functioning correctly.
 A technician must be able to use a range of
software tools to diagnose problems, maintain
hardware, and protect the data stored on a
computer.
some disk management tools:
FDISK:A command-line tool that creates and
