This screen indicates that Chili can be updated via a floppy
disk.
The second screen states the unit is initializing.
The unit will now load up previous set-points.
Note: If demo was your last source then the demo
loading screen will be next.
This screen indicates the version of the Pianomation MIDI
EPROM in the processor. The processor is typically
mounted under a grand piano or inside an upright. It also
tells us the version of the Chili software, and will perform
an internal check to ensure the stability of all the circuits.
Note: If you miss the version numbers, you can view
them by pressing setup and choosing Version.
Finally, the home screen appears. The unit is now ready
for operation.
