Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for preventing untested or improperly tested printed circuit boards from being used in a fire pump control system by interrogating each printed circuit board to ensure post-assembly fitness. Exemplary embodiments of the present invention comprise retrieving test status information stored on non-volatile memory of a printed circuit board, verifying the test status information stored on the non-volatile memory of the PCB, determining if all tests performed on the PCB have passed, outputting a message regarding the status of the PCB, and continuing to interrogate each additional PCB in the fire pump controller. A pass flag is set and recorded on the non-volatile memory of a respective PCB if all tests on the respective PCB have passed. Whereas, an error flag is set and recorded on the non-volatile memory if at least one test on a respective PCB has failed.
