SYSTEM RESET
If the data contained in the instrument’s memory has been dam-
aged, either by being exposed to the effects of a strong mag-
netic field, or other unknown reason, the instrument may not
operate properly. The remedy is a system reset:
(1) press and hold the UPPER 1 selector button located to the
right of the LCD display, (2) simultaneously press the top group
of THREE buttons in the PROGRAMMABLE PADS section
while still holding the UPPER 1 selector button, (3) the mes-
sage «System Reset» appears for an instant then the instru-
ment resets to the factory-set situation. All user-programmed
data is irremediably lost.
IMPORTANT PRELIMINARY NOTES
Observe these important preliminary notes before getting into your instrument
AVOID PLACING DISKS NEAR MAGNETS - Do not place floppy disks on top of speakers, near mag-
nets, telephones, or other sources of electromagnetic fields. The disk contents could be damaged.
OS-DISKS - UPDATEABLE OPERATING SYSTEM
UPDAEABLE OPERATING SYSTEM - Two floppy disks containing the operating system are supplied
with the instrument. The OS disks can contain a more recent version of the operating system than the
one contained in the instrument’s Flash ROM.
To load the operating system contained in the OS disks:
(1) turn off the instrument, (2) insert OS-disk 1 in the drive, (3) turn on the instrument, (4) When the
message “Loading OS-DISK clears ALL MEMORY !! < Enter to load / Escape to abort >” appears, press
ENTER to start the op. system update, (5) when the message, “INSERT NEXT OS-DISK please < Enter
to load >” appears, extract the first disk, insert OS-Disk 2 and press ENTER to continue (6) when the
operation is complete, carry out the SYSTEM RESET operation described below. Remember to extract
the second OS-disk and store both OS-disks in a safe place. Make back-up copies and use those
instead.
