[Operations]
Before start cloning, PLEASE SAVE THE DATA ALWAYS as a backup. This beta
version is not yet well tested with non-Japanese OS therefore operation may be
unstable.
To edit memories, please use the Memory tab. Click on the line you wish to edit so
that another editor window pops up. You may also use import/export function so that
you can edit the memory data using common CSV format.
For the bank tab, you can set banks up to 50 but the total number of memory channels
must always be 1000 in total. Please observe the right bottom column and make it
1000 before quit editing.
"Title Name" feature in the common setting tab replaces the animated opening image
with up to 16 characters of your preference. Please leave it blank to use original
animated image.
About [FONT] menu on the setting tab : You may create characters or symbols of your
preference using this feature and display them as fonts on X11's screen. Click [FONT] button
to display the editor menu. Click on the square to make your own fonts. One square
corresponds to one dot on the LCD. After the design is completed, save it by clicking the file
menu in the tool-bar. To display the fonts, select the font you like, and assign a number using
the pull-down box at the left. Click OK on the right. In the Title menu on the Common-set or
in the Memory editing menu, there are 8 numeric buttons. These buttons corresponds the
number you registered in the pull-down menu. When you press [1], instead of the character
you created, [ ;1~] is displayed. You may create the fonts as much as you want, but you can
register them up to 8 at a time, and OVERWRITES the previously registered fonts. For
example you assigned a font ";-)" to the number 1 today and wrote " ;-) Hello" in the title.
Next day, you assigned a font [@@] to the number 1 and edited a memory tag. In this case
the memory tag will be all right but the title will become [@@Hello]. Perhaps the best way to
manage these fonts would be that you make the memory data and font data together, keep
them in a same sub-folder, so that when you load the memory file you also load the
corresponding font file.
