Installing Sound ROM Options
After installing a Sound ROM option SIMM using the accompanying instructions, you will need
to transfer the presets from the option ROM to the PC2Õs Flash ROM. Once the SIMM(s) has
been installed and the option panel replaced, complete the following instructions:
1. Start the boot block on the PC2 using the directions above.
2. Scroll to
Install ROM option
and select by pressing
Enter
.
3. Select the correct option (
card 1
or
card 2
) by scrolling and pressing
Enter
.
If a ROM option is installed in the correct card slot, the display will show ÒInstalling...Ó
followed by a sequence of address blocks. When the installation is complete, the main
boot block menu will be displayed.
4. If youÕre installing a second ROM option, select
Install ROM option
again by pressing
Enter
repeat Step 3.
5. Scroll to the
Hard RESET
menu item, and select by pressing
Enter
. Before doing a hard
reset, please read
Resetting the PC2
on page A-5, so you can avoid losing any of your PC2
programs or setups.
6. Press
Yes
to execute a hard reset; the PC2 will restart with the additional ROM option
setups installed.
Resetting the PC2
If you select
Hard RESET
by scrolling and pressing
Enter
, the display will ask
Erase|RAM|objects?
which gives you an important opportunity to think about what you are
doing. This resets all of the PC2Õs memory back to the initial factory state. This is necessary if
you are upgrading the software or installing ROM options. If youÕre not concerned about losing
all of your work, or it has been saved using a MIDI Sysex dump (see page 4-4), then press the
button beneath the
Yes
on the display. The PC2 will execute a hard reset and start running
normally.
Running the Diagnostics
The
Run diags
option executes the diagnostics that are loaded with the operating system. Some
diagnostic tests will erase the PC2Õs memory, which will cause a hard reset when the PC2 is
powered on again. Power off and power on your PC2 to leave diagnostics and return to normal
operation.
