Re: [xl7] NO sound output from P2500 while playing keys through xp 60 keyboard.

2003-05-02 by Umesh Bhagwat

Dear Sir,

Thanks for your mail

Yes  when I press a key on the xp-60 ,I can see the  MIDI in INDICATOR 
lighting up  (RED in colour) on the P2500 module.

Yes ,both are set to same  MIDI  Channel 1. Selected the factory presets.
I  have checked the midi cables and they are working with other midi 
devices .

Also I re-installed  the software E-loader 1.1,also the MTP AV USB is 
installed with the latest drivers.

I tried  upgrading the o.s (2.0) from  E-loader 1.1 ,selected the 
downloadable o.s. file 2.0 ,seected the midi device  INPUT   AND OUTPUT 
PORT,but  still the problem  on the download section  :Download  OS File 
to Target  is not highlighted.

It looks like the o.s. has been corrupted ,or has the midi controller 
gone bad.we are not sure.

(Recently I have upgraded (using o.s. loader 1.0)  the PROTEUS 2000  to 
o.s. ver 2.26, with this same setup,but I could not upgrade the P2500 
module using E-loader 1.1).


Also can we upgrade  the P2500 module using another  P2500 module.
For eg.  Transferring O.S from one  P2500 module  to  another P2500 
module using midi cables ,without using e-loader and the computer.
Pls let us know if this possible.

Again your help is needed .

Waiting for your reply ASAP

Thanks and Best Regards
for  S.U.N. Media Ventures Pvt Ltd.
