TEO-5 POLY CHAIN OS UPDATE
Please read the steps below for updating the main OS on your TEO-5.
ALWAYS BACKUP YOUR IMPORTANT WORK VIA SYSEX DUMP BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY OS UPDATES!!
Not that we're expecting bad things to happen, but always better safe than sorry. Just remember, you're never going to say to yourself "Man, I wish I hadn't backed that up..."
To check currently installed OS, enter the GLOBAL menu.
When the OS file is transmitted to the synth a count from 0 to 100 will be shown on the synth's main display to indicate reception of the OS file. Once the count reaches 100, the display will read 'PrG' for programming. Once complete, the display will read 'rSt' for reset.
**DO NOT POWER THE SYNTH DOWN WHILE THE SYNTH IS PROGRAMMING**
After updating and power cycling, the OS shown in the Global menu will display "1.1.0.1".
We do not recommend using the following MIDI interfaces for sysex transfers as we have had multiple users experience problems with them:
Native Instruments Maschine
Digidesign Mbox/Mbox2
Digidesign 001/002
CME U2MIDI
To check if the OS update was properly installed, press GLOBAL. The OS version is displayed in the upper left hand portion of the screen.
If your OS update failed:
1. Update your MIDI drivers for your MIDI interface to the latest or last known stable version
2. Try alternate speed settings: transfer speed settings as low as 25% and as high as 100% have worked for some users when 80% did not
3. Try an alternate MIDI interface. The M-Audio MIDI Sport Uno works well here and is relatively cheap
4. In Windows with MIDI OX on Windows XP: Try doubling or quadrupling the Size setting to start, and halving/doubling the number of buffers
5. Search google and/or forums for the company that produces your MIDI interface to see if other users are having similar problems with Sysex transfers and whether there is a solution specific to your interface
6. If you are on Windows XP, try another OS or machine. Although it's not ideal, we have had less problems with Mac OSX and Windows 7. Windows XP has known issues with sysex transfers
**INSTALLATION NOTE: It is recommended to reset globals after updating**
