Just received my second Hawk-800 kit... this time with the Atomahawk portion too! I have a few questions about this new sample dump feature. I had previously been running a Poly-800 with the original kit (1.2 BOOT ROM, who knows what software) so this is all new to me.

Here's what's happening:

I enter diag mode 8, send the bulk file from the 2.4.3 zip file... everything looks like the manual says (Flash4 etc.), but then I get a big fat H instead of a "Good". I'm pretty sure it locks up at this point because it won't respond to anything.

I should say I accidentally loaded this bulk file once during the ROM flash routine (not realizing the difference). I did go back and re-load the three EEPROM files after that and everything seems to be working except these sysex dumps.

Is it possible that there are still something hanging out in the EEPROMs from that instance? Also, how do I load the sysex patches posted in the files section. They show "Error 2" in this "Diag 8" mode and I can't seem to find any other reference to a different mode. As you can see I'm a little confused... don't use SYSEX much.

Thanks,
Everett
