System Messages
The System Messages are the data related to the overall system of the device.
System Exclusive Messages
System Exclusive messages are used to exchange the system and voice/
registration data. These allow you to execute bulk dump operation, sending
and receiving all the data of the EL-700/500 including registrations to and
from an external device. This is especially useful for you to build up the
library of the registration data in a device like a hard disk.
Examples of Exchanging the Data
Use the following examples to send (or receive) the registration data to
(or from) a personal computer (a sequencing software).
First, you need to connect your EL-700/500 with a personal computer
(a sequencing software) using a Serial Cable or a MIDI cable (page
158).
NOTE:
You also need a sequencing software,
which has been properly installed in the
personal computer, and which can send
and receive system exclusive messages.
Send the Registration Data from the EL-700/500 to
the Personal Computer (PC)
• Preparation
1
Set the Strings voice on the Upper Keyboard of the EL-700/500.
Press STRINGS button for the Upper Keyboard Voice 1 section,
and select String 1 from the Strings Menu.
2
Store the registration to the Registration Memory button 1.
While holding down the M. button Press the Registration Memory
button 1.
• Sending the Registration Data
3
Send the Request-to-Send all RAM message, “F0, 43, 70, 70, 10,
F7” (Hexadecimal), from the sequencing software (PC) to the EL-
700/500.
Once the EL-700/500 receive the Request-to-Send all RAM message,
the EL-700/500 automatically sends all registration data in the all
registration numbers to your PC. You can store the registration data
in a file on your PC.
NOTE:
Depending on the capacity of your
sequencing software, you may need to
divide the data into two and send them
to the PC separately.
