Roland RS-5 Service Notes page 10

RS-5
Upgrading is much easier when using a sequencer with a chain
playback function such as the MC-80.Loading and playing the
".svc" files (chain files) on the disk will automatically playback
all of the "mid.' files on the disk as well.
Use the following file.
XP-80, 60, 50 : MITK5_XP.SVC
MC-80 : MITK5_MC.SVC
5. When upgrading is finished correctly, check sum will be
displayed and the FAVORITE PERFORM BANK [1]-[8]
LEDs will flash.
Check that each of the 3 upper case values and the two lower and
central case values match.
(Ignore the right most lower case value.) If they do not match,
upgrading has failed.
Perform upgrading from the beginning again.
6. If a checksum is confirmed, reboot and perform factory
resetting.
(See Factory Resetting)
7. Check the version of the updated Flash ROM.(See Checking
the Version Number)
Cautions:
Number of SMFs
• SMF is made for each Flash Memory block.
• Sixteen SMFs from p00001.mid to p00016.mid are made.
• A file in the middle may be taken out depending on the
program size.
• Since checksum data are placed in p00016.mid, this file will
always be made.
Ending the Update
• After the p00016.mid file has been received, all updated data
are received.
• Erase the block which was not updated at this point.
• This is for correctly managing the checksum data of the
Flash ROM.
• Therefore, updating of only one part of the block cannot be
done.
• If turning off the power while date is being written in Flash
ROM. Preform upgrading from the beginning again.
