These programs, also called overlaysor loads, are identified by a title and a number that is preceded by themnemonic for load (for example, Trunk Diagnostic — LD 36).The programs used in Midnight and Background Routines are also usedmanually as interactive diagnostic programs. See Table 16 "Programs usedin Midnight and Background Routines" (page 62).Nonresident programs are used interactively with a command and responseformat. In this format, enter a command that tells the system to perform aspecific task.
