device to the YDP-223 and follow the usual playback
procedure.

Receiving (returning) the transmitted data:
1. Connect the YDP-223 via MIDI to the device to which the
data was previously transmitted.
2. Start sending the data from the device.
The YDP-223 automatically receives the data from the unit.
(At this time, any data previously stored in the YDP-223 will
be erased.)
Then, follow the usual playback procedure.
(For the data to be accepted, the YDP-223 that receives the
data should be the same model as the one from which the
data was once transmitted to the MIDI data filer.)
NOTE
The reload operation cannot be executed when Demo/Preset
Song mode or the user song recorder is in operation, or
when Function mode is engaged.
For more information on transmitting and receiving bulk data
via MIDI, refer to the owner's manual for the connected MIDI
