Power up diagnostics and actions

13. NVRAM Settings verified

NVRAM Is checked for proper Europa settings. Europa stores all board settings (except patches and presets) in NVRAM – in the same location as the Roland code’s BANK C & D of presets. If this NVRAM region has bad settings, a boot code of E-4or E-5is shown (depending upon the exact problem). This also occurs if the NVRAM region’s checksum is invalid. In either situation, the default Europa board settings are reloaded.

14. Flash patches and presets are verified

All patches and presets stored in flash are verified for valid content. If an invalid patch is found, a boot code of E-1is shown. The bad patch(es) are corrected regardless of the memory protect switch’s position. If an invalid preset is found, a boot code of E-3is shown. As with patches, presets are also corrected regardless of the memory protect switch setting.

At this point, the board has passed all diagnostics and has booted into operational (Europa) mode.

Power up action functions

Europa has several actions that it can perform on powerup. Each is performed by holding the keys mentioned below, turning the Jupiter 6’s power on, and holding until no longer required (as documented):

TAPE

Boot to Roland mode. No need to hold the TAPE button after the board has booted.

 

Once it has booted, the board is ready for operation. Note that patches created under

 

Europa will not be usable under Roland code without a manual conversion step

 

(documented below). Conversely, patches created under Roland code will also need

 

conversion to Europa. But then again, once the patches have been converted to

 

Europa, why go back to the Roland code?

WRITE + TAPE

Force firmware transfer mode (FTM) boot. The only reason to use this is if the

 

operational code image is good but crashes when firmware transfer is attempted, and

 

standard contact with the Europa Firmware Update Utility does not work. A lit B

 

LED ,1 LED, and 2-8blinking indicates a successful boot to FTM. Follow the

 

instructions in the Europa Firmware Update Utility chapter.

BENDER

Restore factory patches, presets, and default Europa board settings. It reloads the

 

Roland factory patches and presets to NVRAM, writes a converted version of the

 

NVRAM to on-chip flash, and loads Europa factory defaults into the board settings.

 

Be sure to hold BENDER until boot code E-6shows up. Once E-6is displayed,

 

press a key or button to continue the boot process.

Portamento

Copy NVRAM patches and presets to internal Europa flash and convert to Europa

 

patch/preset format. This is used to convert recently restored patches and presets

 

(via tape) over to Europa. One such use would be booting Roland code and loading

 

patches and presets from cassette. NVRAM Is only used as a copy source and is not

 

altered. Hold until boot code E-2is shown. Note that Europa will automatically do

 

this the first time the chip is installed.

Glissando

Copy flash patch/presets to NVRAM and convert the NVRAM to Roland format.

 

The only reason to use this feature is to share patches and presets with non-Europa

 

upgraded Jupiter 6 owners. Note that many preset settings, mostly related to the

 

arpeggiator, are lost since Roland’s NVRAM preset format doesn’t store Europa

 

specific settings.
