Mode: Manually Exiting Special Mode

A host software system, engineered to support the MCS using Special Mode, will send a command into the MCS, which switch the unit into Special Mode.

At this point, the MCS is no longer user-programmable.

The user may choose, however, to manually exit the Special Mode and return to User Assignable mode, without having to turn the hardware off and on.

This feature is only available if the MCS has already been switched into Special Mode by an external host system.

Above the first encoder is the word MODE. The encoder is used select wither User or Host. Selecting User returns the unit to User Assignable Mode. Selecting Host returns the unit to the Special Mode.

If the unit has not received any command from a Host system, since its last power-up, then this feature is not accessible.

Protect

When On, user cannot enter Assign Mode. Display alerts user memory is protected when attempting to enter Assign Mode.

Dump

Rotate encoder to initiate MIDI System Exclusive bulk data dump. The data dump takes about 20 seconds.
