===== Testing the USB, Midi, Sync, CV and Audio Connections =====

==== Testing the USB ====
  - Power the IO board, but don't connect it to the main board
  - Plug in the USB into a computer.
    * If you are using Windows, The computer should detect a "Serial <-> USB" chip and request a driver.
    * If you are using OSX or Linux, .... WorkOnMe
  - Download the [[http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/FT232-FT245Drivers.htm#VCP|driver from FTDI]].  (a mirror for the Windows XP/2k driver is on this site here: {{x0x:vcp_usb_driver_r9052154.zip}}) Make sure to grab the VCP driver. Install it. Verify that a new COM port is created (under Windows, look under hardware control panel)

==== Testing everything else ====

Everything else should just work.  But if you are having problems, here are some detailed testing instructions.

=== Midi and Din Sync ===

WorkOnMe

=== Audio ===

Audio testing is simple.  Plug a jack into your x0x0b0x, and the other jack into your mixer, or an amplifier, and away you go.  One (or both) jacks don't work, it is almost surely a problem with either the Headphone amplifier or the Mixer section.

=== CV and Gate ===

Connect your multimeter to the tip of the CV jack, and ground to the sleeve.  Set the x0xb0x to KeyboardMode, and press the lower C key.  You should see 2 Volts DC(?).  Press the upper C key, and you should see 3 Volts DC(?).

For the gate, do the same, and press any note key.  You should see 5V DC when pressed, and 0V DC when released.
