3.3.4.10. Test Button
The Test button opens a window, which allows you test your speakers one by one. Testing a speaker channel enables you to ensure that the speakers or headphones are properly connected.
The test utility displays a button for each of the possible output channels, but the number of active buttons depends on your selected output mode. Click any active speaker button to send the test sound to the corresponding speaker. See Figure 15.
The “Loop Sounds” button allows you to repeat the test sound until you click Stop. If the Loop Sounds is off, the sound will only play once for each click of a speaker button.
The Auto button sends the test sound to each speaker once and moves it to the next speaker automatically.
The Close button exits the test utility and returns you to the Main Control Panel Setup Tab.
