T29: mLAN Check Initial Screen: //// MOTIFx Test Program //// 29:mLAN :Press [ENTER] Description: Tests signal exchanges with a mLAN board (mLAN8E) connected to mLAN I/F. For this test, instruct the mLAN board to execute the following items successively: 1. Board connection test: Check to see whether an mLAN board exists or not. 2. Entering board test mode: Instruct the mLAN board to execute the test. 3. MEL output test: Switch the sound source clock to that from mLAN and test the MEL output (4 lines) from the unit as follows: Outputs sine waves from the unit to the four lines of output successively and make sure the mLAN board receiving the output stays at the specified level. 4. MEL input test: Test the MEL input (1 line) from the mLAN board to unit as follows: (1) Outputs a sine wave from the unit to the mLAN board. (2) The mLAN board relays the signal to the MEL input of the unit. (3) The unit D/A converts the signal to output to STEREO OUT. 5. Board reset: Initializes the mLAN board.

Bulk data cannot be transmitted/received since the device number is off. Bulk data cannot be transmitted/received since the device numbers dont match. The internal backup battery has no remaining power. Replace the battery. The card or disk is full and no more data can be saved. Use a new card or disk, or make space by erasing unwanted data from the card or disk. The specified file was not found on the card or disk during a load operation. Try again after re-inserting/re-connecting the card or disk. The card or disk is unusable. Format the card or disk and try again. A card or disk is not properly inserted in or connected to the MOTIF. The card or disk is not formatted, or the format is unusable by the MOTIF. Check the card/disk contents. The card or disk is write protected, or you have attempted to write to a read-only medium such as CD-ROM. The format type of the SCSI disk or Memory card is wrong. The file specified for loading is unusable by the MOTIF. The specified file name is unacceptable. Try entering a different name. You have attempted to delete, rename, or overwrite a read-only file. No more directories can be created below the current level. Directories below this level cannot be accessed. The file format type is not supported by the MOTIF. A SCSI error has occurred.
