■Transfer a backup file from
the instrument to a computer
You can use the Musicsoft Downloader to transfer
"Backup Files" (page 49) including the five User
Songs stored on the instrument, to a computer. If
you click "Electronic Musical Instruments" in the
Musicsoft Downloader display, and then "System
Drive", a file named "06PG76.BUP" will appear in
the lower right corner of the Musicsoft Down-
loader display. This is the backup file. For details
about how to transmit backup file using the Music-
soft 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 file on the computer. If you do so, it will
not be recognized when transferred to the instrument.
