SY-88:Hold down the PLAY/REC/FF buttons while powering up the DA-88 to display the SY-88 ROM version.

4.If using any of the newer 24-bit DTRS machines, you should have version 2.1 EPROMs installed in the DIO•8 cards (DIO•8 cards shipped after 7/2000 have version 2.1 EPROMs installed). If the label on the socketed IC (located on the bottom left corner of the DIO•8 card, near the edge connector) has anything but “v2.1” printed on it, you should get the free upgrade by contacting our parts department at 800-258-6883.
