The M-480 can transfer and receive the internal parameters information using system
exclusive messages. The M-480 can transmit and receive Universal System Exclusive
messages, Data Request (RQ1) and Data set (DT1) as the System Exclsive Message.
❍ About Model ID
The Model ID of the M-480 is 00H, 00H, 24H as for Data Request (RQ1) and Data set (DT1).
❍ About Device ID
System Exclusive messages are not assigned to any particular MIDI channel. Instead, they
have their own special control parameter called device ID. The roland system exclusive
messages use device DIs to specify multiple M-480 units. The M-480 sends system exclusive
messages using 00H-1FH, and receives the system exclusive messages whose device ID is
same as its device DI and 7FH. The value of the device ID is the value set on the REMOTE
popup’s Dev ID minus one.
