1. Use the USB cable to connect the ME-25 to the computer installed with
the USB driver for the ME-25.

2. Start the ME-25 is the normal performance mode.

3. Play the MIDI sequencer program on the computer to send the backed-up
SysEx data.
When playback ends, the restore operation is complete.
* No operation is required on the ME-25.

Updating the System

You use a computer-based MIDI sequencer or the like to play back update-use
MIDI data, and carry out a system update on the ME-25 by receiving the sent
MIDI data.

Performing a system update causes any patch data in the unit to be lost. Back
up any necessary data in advance as described in Data Backup and Restore
Operations (p. 11).

Items Required
• Computer (running Windows XP)
• USB cable
• Update-use MIDI data
• USB driver for the ME-25 (obtainable from http://www.roland.co.jp)
• UpdSMF (obtained via Service Net)

Procedure
1. Use the USB cable to connect the ME-25 to the computer installed with
the USB driver for the ME-25.

2. Turn down all controls all the way counterclockwise (minimum).

3. Hold down [WRITE], [EXTREME], and [SUPER STACK] and insert the
plug into the INPUT jack.
The message UP. appears on the 7-segment LED display.
fig.sys-UP.eps

The dot flashes while the ME-25 negotiates the connection to the
computer. When the connection has been established, the dot stops
flashing and stays lighted.
* If the dot on the 7-segment LED display does not light up steadily, the
connection has a problem. Verify that the driver is correctly installed and set up
and that the USB cable is correctly connected.

4. On the computer, start the program for sending MIDI data (UpdSMF)
and send the update-use MIDI data.
During data receiving, the triangular LEDs to the left and right of the 7-
segment LED display flash with different timing.
The update takes about 3 minutes.
When the update has ended, the message Fn. appears on the 7-segment
LED display.

* The Test Mode does not start unless all controls have been turned all the way counterclockwise.

3. Hold down [WRITE] and [EXTREME] and insert a plug into the INPUT jack.
* Holding down [WRITE] and [CRUNCH] by mistake and inserting the plug enters the Test Mode for factory-default inspection.
In many cases, execution proceeds unchanged for some time without this being noticed, but continuing in the Test Mode for
factory-default inspection is impossible without special tools.

3. Depress the toe side of the expression pedal all the way and press [WRITE].
The message 5 appears on the 7-segment LED display.
* This 5 is the sensitivity of the expression-pedal switch. It is set to 5 by default.

4. Depress the toe side of the expression pedal more forcefully and verify that the PEDAL FX LED lights up.

5. Again depress the toe side of the expression pedal forcefully and verify that the PEDAL FX LED goes dark.

6. Press [EXIT] to move to the next test.

The Reading Shown on the 7-segment LED Display

When UP is shown, dots are also displayed at the same time.
Left dot: This indicates that calibration was executed when the unit was shipped from the factory.
Right dot: This indicates that calibration has been executed one or more times by the user or a service technician
since the unit was shipped from the factory.
* This calibration record cannot be reset.

The ME-25 records the expression-pedal calibration history. Executing this in the User Mode (Owner’s Manual p. 12)
overwrites the calibration record left by the user.
If the pedal operates in an unexpected way, examining the calibration history may allow determination of a problem
in the factory-default calibration or in calibration performed by the user.
