# How can I use the Test button?

Click the Test button to test your device with a configuration, without any disruption to production.

If you selected a trigger type under the Live button that is external (any other than Presentation or Self trigger mode), you can trigger the reader automatically in Test mode. You can trigger the reader automatically in Test mode using the Trigger On and Trigger Off times. For your convenience, you can see the calculated trigger frequency.

You can either reduce Trigger On or Trigger Off times to reduce the cycle time, and thus increase trigger frequency.

NOTE: Depending on the read setup, code to read, and connection interface, there might be speed limitations, and at higher speeds, it can help to disable image transfer.

Some typical use cases are the following:

- Trigger On = 20ms, Trigger Off = 1980ms -> Frequency = 0.5 Hz (default)
- Trigger On = 20ms, Trigger Off = 980ms -> Frequency = 1 Hz
- Trigger On = 20ms, Trigger Off = 480ms -> Frequency = 2 Hz
- Trigger On = 20ms, Trigger Off = 180ms -> Frequency = 5 Hz
- Trigger On = 20ms, Trigger Off = 80ms -> Frequency = 10 Hz
- Trigger On = 20ms, Trigger Off = 30ms -> Frequency = 20 Hz
