Using the speaker system: harman/kardon HK695 Audio System
In order to facilitate optimal system setup, a diagnostic system has been built in to the harman/
kardon HK695 Audio System. If you are having trouble getting sound out of your system, or
are not confident that your setup is optimal, use these system diagnostics to configure your
harman/kardon HK695 Audio system.
Disconnect all speaker cables from the sound card. To test the front speaker channel, plug the
green connector into the diagnostic jack on the rear of the subwoofer. This will generate a test
tone. This tone will alternate from the Subwoofer to the satellites and back again.
The diagnostic test can also be used to test the rear speaker channel input by plugging in the
black connector into the diagnostic jack on the rear of the subwoofer. (Test tone may sound
different due to the surround characteristics of speaker system).
When you have finished the test, unplug the cable from the 'DIAG' jack and plug the audio
cable back into the correct soundcard output jack. Review the user setup if necessary.
While the speaker system is in the diagnostic mode, the -/+ controls will control the volume of
the diagnostic tone.
If the test tone was heard from all speakers, your HK695 Audio System is working correctly. If
not, see the troubleshooting section for detailed troubleshooting techniques.
