■Transferring Backup data from
the Instrument to a Computer
You can use the Musicsoft Downloader to transfer
Backup data (page 39 ) to a computer. If you click
"Electronic Musical Instruments" in the Musicsoft
Downloader display, and then "System Drive," a
file named "PSR-S550.BUP" will appear in the
lower right corner of the Musicsoft Downloader
display. This is the backup data. For details about
how to transfer backup data using the Musicsoft
Downloader application, refer to the Online help in
the application.
NOTE
• Preset Song data cannot be transmitted from the instrument.
CAUTION
• The backup data, including the five User Songs' is transmitted/
received as a single file. As a result, all backup data will be over-
written every time you transmit or receive. Keep this in mind when
transferring data.
CAUTION
• Do not rename the backup data on the computer. If you do so it
will not be recognized when transferred to the instrument.
