Abstract:
An earphone device/test station pairing ( 1, 2 ) includes an earphone device ( 1 ) including: at least one electroacoustic driver ( 32, 33, 34 ); a digital module ( 31 ) including a processor module; and a digital interface configured to connect the earphone device ( 1 ) to a media/communications device having a digital output; a test station ( 2 ) including at least one transducer ( 40, 42, 6 ), the test station ( 2 ) being operative to communicate with the earphone device ( 1 ) via the digital interface to allow data transmission between the earphone device ( 1 ) and the test station ( 2 ) during a test/configuration procedure; and a test module ( 4 ) for performing automated testing of the earphone device ( 1 ) when mounted on/connected to the test station ( 2 ).

Claim (Index 27):
An automated method of testing an earphone device during a production line manufacturing process comprising:\n providing an earphone device/test station pairing as defined in  claim 1 ; positioning the earphone device to be tested in a predetermined test position relative to the test station and running by means of the test module a program to perform the steps of:\n a test phase comprising:\n activating a pre-generated test pattern; and \n collecting at least one response; and \n \n an analysing step comprising analysing the at least one response.
