This may have gotten lost in the noise involved with this thread, but the most concise answer is that the general diagnostic tool you're looking for simply does not exist. The software tools that were mentioned are a couple of very specific tests that can help troubleshoot a couple specific kinds of problems. By themselves, they would not be able to determine the overall health of your console. Also, as has been explained, they're not something that ETC is comfortable releasing into the wild for a variety of reasons.
There have been several suggestions in the thread of how to test your console without any special tools. You're right that the macro Pete suggested doesn't test everything in the console, but it is useful for certain problems. Sarah described a couple of good approaches to verifying that the facepanel hardware is working correctly. It's also good to connect the console to some actual lights (preferably something with a small filament so it's easier to see flicker) and run all of the faders up and down repeatedly. This will help find any that are dirty or aren't working correctly. Connecting a DMX test device to each of the outputs can verify that they are working correctly. Basically your goal is just to use the console as heavily as possible while watching carefully for any undesirable behavior.
I apologize for the frustration that this conversation has caused. I just hope you can understand that most of these older products don't have a lot of the handy utilities we've gotten used to seeing in newer products. This isn't about anyone trying to censor anything, or about trying to force you into sending it in for service. We just don't have what you're looking for.
