How do i check what operating system my XV 3080 has ?

Post by synthman »

Hi folks. I've just got a used xv 3080. I cant find out if it has the latest OS.I can't find if there is a way of checking. Nothing in the manual (not that I can see anyway). Ive been through this forum, same result. I got in touch with the previous owner but he did not know ether. So, how do I check if it's got the latest OS ?.. and what does the OS version do? Do I really need to update it. ?

Thanks.

Instructions for Updating the XV-3080 System

The XV-3080 System Update Program updates your XV-3080 system program to the most recent version.
This program is provided in sequencer file format (SMF).
Be sure to read the following information to ensure that the installation onto your XV-3080 is carried out correctly.

First, check to see what version of the system program is currently being used by the XV-3080.

Instructions for Confirming the Version

If your System Information screen ([SYSTEM] - [INFO]) looks like this:
+----------------------------------------+
|INFO |Expansion A: **************** |
|EXP |Expansion B: **************** |
+----------------------------------------+
your system version is eligible for an update.
Use the system update program to apply the update.

* No update is necessary if version number 1.11 or higher is indicated for "EXP."
