## NAME

lnptest - LNP Client Test Application

## SYNOPSIS

**lnptest**

## DESCRIPTION

**lnptest** is an LNP Daemon test client used to test the connection between  lnptest and the LNP daemon through the Ir Tower to a corresponding test program running in an RCX.  See the FILES section for the location of the RCX test program source code (distributed with this package).

## OPTIONS

**lnptest** does not support command-line options.

## USAGE

To run the test:\
 \- compile the lnptest.c RCX program \
 \- start the lnpd daemon\
 \- download the lnptest.lx program to the RCX\
 \- (at the RCX) run the program just downloaded to the RCX\
 \- run this lnptest program\
 \- inspect the output looking for lack of failure messages

## FILES

- **/usr/share/doc/lnpd/examples/rcx**

  In this directory is the source to the RCX-side program which is called lnptest.c but written to be compiled against BrickOS.
