1. Introduction

This package contains a manual that describes how to use the error simulator, along with tools used to generate certain specific error codes.
For information about how to use the error simulator, see the 3DS Network Error Simulation Manual.
In this package, "3DS" refers to the entire Nintendo 3DS family, and not just the Nintendo 3DS system.

4. Installation

Installing NZSimulator.cia

To run NZSimulator.cia, save the NZSimulator.cia file in the tool folder to the SD card in the 3DS development unit.
Also save the nzsim folder where the configuration file is stored to the SD card. The directory structure is as follows.
/nzsim/NetworkErrorSim.cfg
Start DevMenu from the development unit with the SD card inserted, and then import NZSimulator.cia.
You can run NZSimulator by starting the imported NZSimulator.cia file.
The error codes generated by NZSimulator.cia vary depending on the firmware version of the 3DS system you are using to check the errors.
For the procedure to use when checking error codes and for more information about the generated error codes, see the 3DS Network Error Simulation Manual.
