Use a GPIO device and set up a macro to fire it. At WCRI, there is a Broadcast Tools audio switcher that has several GPO's; I have one of them wired to trigger the RWT on the EAS box. The test is then scheduled in Rivendell as a :30 spot, but it has three components:

1) An intro announcement: "The following is a test of the Emergency Alert System" or some such;

2) The macro to fire the test;

3) Another macro that waits for 15 seconds while the test runs, and to time out the whole thing to :30.
