System tests

Testing for swapped channels
You can test the system for swapped channels.
1. Press the Menu button.
2. Select GENERATOR > CHANNEL CHECK.
3. Press the Menu button to start the test.
The unit outputs a tone on the left channel and then the right channel. If what you hear
does not match what is shown on the display, check for swapped channels.
Testing for phase reversals
You can test the system for phase reversals.
1. Press the Menu button.
2. Select GENERATOR > PHASE CHECK.
3. Press the Menu button to start the test.
The unit outputs noise on both channels and displays In Phase. The unit then inverts
the noise on the right channel and displays Out of Phase. The first action should
produce a central stereo image and the second action should not.
If the opposite occurs, one channel in the system is phase inverted. Check for
connection errors.
Conditioning the unit
You can run a procedure to condition the unit. The system outputs modulated pink noise that
increases and decreases.

conditioning the unit, reduce the volume to a low level. dCS is not liable for any damage
to equipment due to incorrect use of the conditioning feature.

2. Select GENERATOR > BURN IN.
