Self Test

A self-test routine will check the functions of the MFJ-418. This routine checks

the display, the buttons, the internal memory and the audio circuitry. During the

self-test, you may stop the test by turning off the unit; however, this should

NOT be done during the memory test or the memory could be corrupted. The

self-test can be completed in approximately 30 seconds.

Note: Performing the self-test will reset the unit to its factory default settings.

Here is the self-test procedure:

1. Turn off the power to the Tutor.

2. Press and hold only the Select button while turning the power on.

3. The test begins by displaying a copyright message. This is the test of the

display. Release the Select button before the message completes.

4. You will be prompted to press each of the control-panel buttons.

5. The unit then tests its non-volatile memory. Notice this step will reset the

unit to its factory default settings.

6. If the unit is okay, a repetitive message

"PASS" will be displayed and sent as

audio. If there is a problem, a failure message will be displayed and sent.

7. Once you have confirmed that the audio is okay, turn the unit off.
