EM64 Self Test Mode


 

The EM64's Self test mode allows you to run a number of diagnostic self tests.  

To enable the Self test mode. set Jumper 10 On, then set Jumpers 2, 3 and 4 as shown below to select the desired test. (If your EM64 is equipped with a thumb wheel, you may use it to select the desired test.) Then. reinstall the EM64 and press [Reset] to start the test. When you press [Reset]. all the LEDs flash, the EM64 resets to the new jumper settings, and the self test you have selected runs.

If your EM64 is equipped with the optional thumb wheel, you can use it to select a speed for the Chase, Fade all and Fade one tests without removing the module. Once the selected test is running, set the thumb wheel to the desired speed. Set the thumb wheel to zero to freeze the test. Thumb wheel settings from one to nine set the speed from the slowest rate to the fastest rate respectively. In the Level to al/ test, the thumb wheel allows you to set output levels of zero through nine.
