Thanks yeah I figured that out when I finally got the slider working 
:-).  This thing was such a wreck.  Got it all going with some ugly rust 
ont he front panel.  Some mouse pissed between the cracks I think and I 
alcohol scrubbed the area and dusted it outside..hehe.  That was the 
problem.  I realized it must be a data line shorting when I got the 
wheel cleaned and realize the pitch control was in very coarse 
resolution..   NO RESET it appears on earlier DX.  I'll have to make not 
of that on my page.  Only the S and II versions (insert ROM cartridge 
and turn on it says) have resets (And E! I seeem to recall..)   It does 
have the diagnostic including  A/D with which you can check 
pitch/wheel/pedals and  I imagine breath controller which is why it kept 
telling me 'not completed!'. :-) You just right/left arrow through the 
diagnostics after hitting perfectly at once Function with 16 and 32 for 
that routine while powered on.
