back up important data via sysex before completing the update. The bender and ribbon 
sensor settings will also be lost during this procedure. A procedure for resetting
these settings is included at the end of this document.

The File names included are as follows:

_00001.mid
_00002.mid
_00003.mid
_00004.mid
_00005.mid
_00006.mid
_00007.mid

3)  Press REC. 
4)  When 'Ready to update' appears on the screen, send the first file (_00001.mid) 
    from your sequencer.
5)  When the file is completed, verify that the checksum is indicated as below. 

Block1 ( chksum = 49F8 )  => filename : '_00001.mid'.
Block2 ( chksum = 12E3 )  => filename : '_00002.mid'.
Block3 ( chksum = A146 )  => filename : '_00003.mid'.
Block4 ( chksum = E6EB )  => filename : '_00004.mid'.
