M-Audio DMAN [39/52] Dman dos mixer utility

Diagnostics Test Box

Select the associated test button to test each option. The status of

each test is displayed to the left of each test button. A "fail" result

does not necessarily mean a sound card hardware failure. For

instance, the DMAN does not have the FM synth or joystick port

features which are included in the test. These tests will fail simply

because these features are not present. If the diagnostic program

accesses the hardware using the communication parameters

listed the test will be graded "Fail".

IMPORTANT:

When running CS32DIAG.EXE, the FM Synth

and Joystick tests will fail because there is no joystick or FM

synth hardware on DMAN. These failures do not mean that

there is anything wrong with DMAN.

If you encounter any problems while running diagnostics or

during normal DOS operations at a later date, refer to the “DOS

Troubleshooting” section.

DMAN DOS Mixer Utility

As part of the DMAN Windows 3.1x or Windows 95 installation,

the DOS sound mixer program CS32MIX.EXE is installed on your

hard disk. This program is a DOS graphical interface and

command line mixer utility that controls the same features as the

Windows sound mixer utility. The program may also be run as a

command line, with arguments, from the DOS prompt or in a

DOS batch file. In fact, the DMAN Windows software installation

will place a CS32MIX command in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file

that is run at boot time to initialize the mix levels of your DMAN.

To run the program as a graphical interface, type CS32DIAG and

press the [ENTER] key. The Mixer is then displayed in a

graphical form that is controlled by the keyboard or mouse (if the

mouse driver is installed.)
