Device ID

The Device ID function (DEV ID) allows the assignment of a unique SysEx Device ID to differentiate between multiple MIDI devices of the same model, when sending or receiving SysEx data.

The default setting of 127 lets the keyboard respond to all incoming SysEx messages compatible with the same type of controllers. However, if the Device ID is changed to any other value, the keyboard will only respond to SysEx messages that contain the same Device ID number. This is useful in situations where multiple Oxygen 88 controller keyboards are connected to the same DAW software and SysEx information needs to be sent to a specific keyboard controller with a unique Device ID number.

1.Press Advanced.

2.Press the Device ID key - the LED screen will display the current Device ID (for example "1.2.7.").

3.Enter the new Device ID number using the number keys.

4.Press the Enter key.

NOTE: If the Device ID number of an Oxygen 88 keyboard is changed after a Memory Dump was recorded into a DAW application, any attempts to restore it will be ignored because the numbers do not match. If you do not remember the Device ID number used when the Memory Dump was recorded, set your Oxygen 88 to Device ID 127 to ensure all Memory Dumps will be recognized.

For more information on SysEx messages and Device ID numbers, please refer to "Chapter 10: MIDI Messages Defined" on page 34.
