Calibrate and run a remote speaker test
You can run a speaker test to verify from a remote location that a speaker is working as intended. The speaker performs the test by
playing a series of test tones that are registered by the built-in microphone. Every time you run the test, the registered values are
compared with the values that were registered during the calibration.
Note
The test must be calibrated from its mounted position at the installation site. If the speaker is moved or if its local
surroundings change, for instance if a wall is built or removed, the speaker should be re-calibrated
During calibration, it is recommended that someone is physically present at the installation site to listen to the test tones and
ensure that the test tones are not muffled or blocked by any unintended obstructions in the speaker’s acoustic path.
