TO ENTER PROGRAM INFORMATION
You must first supply power to the PDS-3500 by inserting the A.C. power adapter into the 3.5mm
jack on the right side to the rear of the chassis.
To select the BANK and PRESET numbers: put the MODE SWITCH in the PROGRAM mode and
put the DATA SWITCH in the BANK/PRESET position. Select the BANK you wish to enter data into by
pushing the left foot switch I BANK/STORE!. The BANK number will advance one number at a time at a
single push of the foot switch or, if the foot switch is held down, the BANK numbers will advance at the
rate of about ten numbers per second. The BANK numbers are shown on the left hand portion of the
LED display. When you have reached the desired BANK number, select the desired PRESET number in
the same manner using the right foot switch. The PRESET numbers are shown on the right hand portion
of the LED display. Should you overshoot the number, you may either continue to depress the foot
switch until the desired number comes around again, or you may switch the MODE SWITCH to OPER-
ATE and back to PROGRAM which will reset the BANK number and the PRESET number back to 1 and 0
respectively.
To enter the PROGRAM CHANGE number: with the MODE SWITCH still in the PROGRAM mode,
put the DATA SWITCH in the PROGRAM CHANGE position. Use the right foot switch to advance the
PROGRAM CHANGE numbers as with the PRESET numbers above. The PROGRAM CHANGE numbers
will appear on the LED display with one dot (X X X) in front of the number. The LED display will show
the value that is presently stored in memory for that preset. You change the number by incrementing up
starting at that displayed number. If you fail to store the number you have incremented to, the previous-
ly stored number will remain in memory. Store this number in the memory of the PDS-3500 by depress-
ing the left foot switch. A series of four dashes (----) will appear indicating that the PROGRAM CHANGE
number has been stored. It is not necessary to store each parameter individually; you may stare all three
preset values at a time by depressing the left foot switch once, when the values for PROGRAM
CHANGE, MIDI CHANNEL, and PEDAL STATUS numbers have been selected. You must, however,
store the preset values before you place the DATA SWITCH back into the BANK/PRESET position or the
preset numbers will all be reset to default values.
Entering the MIDI CHANNEL number: is done in the same manner as the PROGRAM CHANGE
