Re: [xl7] orbit-3 diagnostic mode?

2010-04-12 by tom johnson

On the Orbit 3, and the like, hold down the left and right curser buttons and turn on the power. This will get you to diagnostics mode, there are a few that you can cycle through but when you get to the midi loop test you need to connect the midi in to the midi out. If not it will fail. When finished turn off then back on, to check for the roms curser to the "user" and turn the data wheel, you should see "Tecno" and "Beat", the 2 that come with, they take up two of the four slots. Hope you enjoy it as much as I have.
Good luck.

slightly off topic, but i'm sure there are some orbit experts on the
list...

in the next day or so i'll be picking up an orbit-3. before i hand over
the $$$ is there a diagnostic mode, like the XL-7? is there a quick way to
check what ROMs are installed, without a screwdriver?

thanks...!
