Data Backup & Initialization - Yamaha PortaTone PSR-550 Owner's Manual

Data Backup & Initialization
Data Backup
Except for the data listed below, all PSR-550 panel settings are reset to their initial
settings whenever the power is turned on. The data listed below are backed up - i.e.
retained in memory - as long as an AC adaptor is connected or a set of batteries is
installed.

Even though these settings are retained in memory, you should save them — and all
your important data — to floppy disk for permanent, safe storage. To save all of the
data types listed above to floppy disk, use the Save operation (page 60) and select
"All" as the file type.
All data listed above will be lost if the power is interrupted — in other words, if the
power is turned off, the AC adaptor is disconnected and the batteries are removed.
When this happens, the next time you turn on the PSR-550, a "Clear Backup" message
appears in the display, the Data Initialization operation (below) is automatically
executed, and the PSR-550 is set to the Style mode (page 25).
Data Initialization
All data can be initialized and restored to the factory preset condition by turning on the
power while holding the highest (rightmost) white key on the keyboard. "Now Initial-
izing" will appear briefly on the display.

Now Initializing
CAUTION
• All registration and User
Style/Pad memory data,
plus the other settings
listed above, will be erased
and/or changed when the
data initialization
procedure is carried out.
• Carrying out the data
initialization procedure will
usually restore normal
operation if the PSR-550
freezes or begins to act
erratically for any reason.
