Tip!
In the Plug-in page you can use BACKUP and RESTORE
as additional functions. For details refer to the sections
below.
Backing up an I/O card
If an I/O card compatible with the MiniYGDAI plug-in
system is installed, you can use a memory bank
(MEM.BANK) to store I/O card settings.
Scene changes on the AW2816 are linked to changes of
the I/O card settings, and when you store the scene (or
save the song), settings of the I/O card installed in
option slot will be automatically backed-up to
MEM.BANK.
However if necessary, you can also perform the backup
operation manually. The procedure is as follows.

• HOST .......... The TO HOST connector will be

• OPTION ...... The OPTION I/O slot will be used.
Tip!
The OPTION setting is valid only if an I/O card that can
