The Tone Indicator Panel allows the user to test the Tone Indicator device connected to the system. When the user clicks the Tone Indicator Button, the Diagnostics opens the Tone Indicator. The panel provides the user with several test options to exercise the Tone Indicator.
The Tone Indicator can conduct either an interactive or non-interactive test. The Non-Interactive test simply consists of three consecutive tests which use various Tone Indicator settings.
Testing the Tone Indicator
The user can select a variety of options for the Tone Indicator test:
- Volume - The user can set the Volume of the Tone to High or Low.
- Pitch - The user can set the Pitch of the Tone to High, Medium, or Low.
- Duration - The user can set the Duration of the Tone to various lengths, in milliseconds.
- Repetitions - The user can set the number of Repitions of the Tone Indicator to various numbers.
- Wait Time - The user can set the Wait Time between Repetitions of the Tone Indicator to various lengths, in milliseconds.
The User must validate that the Tone Indicator performed as expected for the various settings.
It is important to note that the Tone Indicator test does not return a PASS of FAIL. It merely diagnoses whether the Tone Indicator is connected and functioning.
