Akai MPD232 Service Manual

Software setup
The Manufacturing Test of AD33 requires the following files
– ADT1.exe: executable file
– AD33.png: image file
– AD33.xml: test file
These files should be arranged so that the product specific files (AD33.png and AD33.xml)
are in a folder called “tests” that resides in the same folder as the ADT1 executable as
below.
Running the Manufacturing Test Application
Port selection
Different language versions of different Operating Systems have different ways of
identifying MIDI ports and audio hardware. For this reason, ADT1 allows the Tester to
select these ports when the program is first run. Once a subtest has been successfully
completed, it should no longer be necessary to select these ports even if a different unit is
being tested.
The ports that need to be selected depend on the sub-tests that are being performed for
that product. In addition to the main USB-MIDI port, the Manufacturing test for MPD232
requires that a port be selected for the MIDI loopback test.
Device/Test selection
When the program starts on an English language version of Windows XP, the Tester
should be presented with the following “Port/Test Chooser” window.
Select the correct port and test and click “OK”. This selection should only need to be done
once when the program is first run.
