cycled independently, then a 500 Hz tone will be heard independent of how the
configuration jumpers are set.
Audio Circuitry Test
This test uses the DSP-9 audio output to generate an audio test tone that can be
looped back into the audio input to check the audio levels in the DSP-9.
1. With the DSP-9 powered up and a tone audible at the speaker, disconnect the
speaker from the DSP-9.
2. Loopback the audio output of the DSP-9 to the audio input using an RCA phono to
RCA phono cable.
3. Adjust the DSP-9 volume control to approximately the 11 o'clock position. The
normal LED on the DSP-9 front panel should be on.
4. Increasing the volume control to approximately the 12 o'clock position should like
the overload LED.
5. If the LEDs do not operate in a manner consistent to that noted in steps 3 and 4,
there may be some problem with the loopback cable or in the audio circuitry of the
DSP-9.
Ending the DSP-9 Self-Test
1. Power down the DSP-9.
2. Disconnect audio loopback cable.
3. Restore configuration jumpers to preferred operating options.
4. Put back panel and rear bezel back on the DSP-9 housing. (Don't forget the star
washers over the RCA phono connectors.)
5. Install the DSP-9 into your station per the installation recommendations in this
manual.
