Output Check

The subwoofer's transducer and amplifier can quickly be checked without the need for an external
noise generator and any associated cables. It can be tested manually or via an automated sequence.
!
Initiating Output Check automatically or manually will cause the subwoofer to emit pink
noise. To ensure against potentially dangerous exposure to high sound pressure levels, it is
recommended that all persons exposed to equipment capable of producing high sound
pressure levels use hearing protectors while the equipment is in operation.
Auto:
Using the Auto mode, a 2-second burst of pink noise is emitted from the low-frequency
transducer. To initiate the Auto Output Check sequence, follow these steps.
1.
Rotate the DSP Navigation / Edit Wheel to select Auto.
2.
Press the DSP Navigation / Edit Wheel to initiate the automatic test procedure.
Note: Status changes from "Start" to "Stop". Press it again to terminate the test sequence at any point.
3.
A 2-second pink noise burst is emitted.
Note: When the subwoofer is emitting pink noise, its status changes to indicate "On". It changes back to "Off" after
the 2 second burst is complete.
4.
Auto status changes to "Start" to signify the end of the Output Check cycle.
