Up-dating and Resetting the SD1
UP-DATING THE OPERATING SYSTEM
Thanks to the use of a Flash RAM for the operating system the SD1 can be constantly up-dated in time without having to contact service cen-
tres. Once the original files of the operating system have been obtained from Ketron (www.ketron.it), format a Floppy Disk of 1.4 MB's, possibly
on the SD1 to ensure utmost compatibility and then copy the original files on Floppy Disk. For Mac users, the procedure is the same and no par-
ticular caution is required even in the case of Floppy Disk Drive USB.
Once the operating system Floppy has thus been created, turn the SD1 off and put it in the Disk Drive. Turn the SD1 on and press the function
push button F6 immediately. The SD1 will acknowledge the operating system files and will consequently up-date the dedicated Flash ROM. When
the procedure has been completed the SD1 starts normally. When the SD1 is turned on again there is no need to put the Floppy with the oper-
ating system in the disk drive.
RESETTING THE ORIGINAL CONDITIONS OF THE SD1
The Hard Disk is provided with all the files for resetting the original conditions of the SD1. When one of these files are loaded any modifications
that have been made will automatically be cancelled. To access the reset files, disable MASTER FOLDER and type-in number 90 using the numer-
ic keypad (STYLES push buttons). Folder 90 Reload is not part of the Master Folder and is supplied by Ketron to reset the data and the files
contained can be cancelled. To reset a certain group of memories, select the corresponding file using the VALUE +/- and F10 Select push but-
tons and then press F2 Load. Below is the match between the singles files and the type of reset in Folder 90:
SD1ALL00.RLD: Complete back-up of the instrument. It may be required to re-initialize the keyboard.
SD1STY0.RLD: All the original Flash Styles
1TOUCH.TOU: 1 Touch memory
FIRM0000.SND: The parameters of the internal Voices.

Folder 90 stores some special files dedicated to resetting the Wave table which are of no interest to the final user therefore their use is not
explained. Folder 98 stores copies of the reset files for Programs, Registrations, User Voices, User Drum Sets and Vocal Sets.
