About CompactFlash

Here’s how to delete a set of backup data (containing all the

SP-555’s settings including sample banks and pattern banks)

from the CompactFlash card.

1.

While holding down [DEL], press one of the BANK [C/

G]–[F/J] buttons.

The display will indicate “bdL,” and the pads to which

backup data has been saved will blink.

2.

Press a pad to specify the backup data you want to

delete.

The selected pad will light, and the other pads will go

out.

[DEL] will blink.

You can’t select a pad that is unlit in step 1 (i.e., a pad in

which no data has been saved).

If you decide to cancel, press [CANCEL].

3.

Press [DEL].

[DEL] will light, and the backup delete operation will be

executed. During execution, the dot in the display will

blink. When the blinking stops, the backup delete

operation has been completed.

Never turn off the power while the dot is blinking. Doing so

may destroy the backup data or the CompactFlash card.
