Test program
Running the test program
The Nord Stage test program is stored both in Flash and in the BootPROM position
U6
.
Test program version is shown on the Stage display when the test program is initiated.
In order to trace a hardware error easier, each Nord synthesizer has a test program.
This program is primarily used in production in order to test all functions.
The functions provided by the test program allow a quick and easy search for possible
errors on the hardware. On the Nord Stage, the display guides the user through the test
program.

will light up, one by one. If errors are detected, one of the three groups will flash:
