Data Management Via The Usb Port; Saving A User Program Set To A Usb Memory (Optional) - Roland V-Accordion FR-18 diatonic Owner's Manual

Data management via the USB port

The FR-18 diatonic allows you to save and import User Program settings to/from an optional USB memory connected to
its USB port. You can also import Sets, new sounds and new tablatures you copied to your USB memory using your PC.
The Sets and sounds are stored internally.
Saving a User Program Set to a USB
memory (optional)
Here is how to archive the contents of the FR-18
diatonic's 4 internal User Program memories (file exten-
sion ".USD") to an optional USB memory. The FR-18
diatonic can save up to 4 User Program Sets (U01.USD~
U04.USD). Each User Program Set contains 4 User Pro-
grams.
NOTE
Be sure to connect your USB memory before proceeding.
1.
Connect an optional USB memory to the
FR-18 diatonic's USB MEMORY port.
2.
Press and hold the [SET] register (it flashes
slowly).
The treble keyboard doesn't play.
3.
Press button "34" on the treble keyboard to
select the "Save User Program" parameter.
See page 42 for the location of that button.
4.
The [SET] register flashes quickly and regis-
ters [1], [2], [3], [4] light green or red:
Green means that the USB memory contains no set-
tings for the corresponding User Program Set
(U01.USD~U04.USD).
Red means that the USB memory already contains a
User Program Set.
