Operating the MultiValve
Play back the data stored on the sequencer. The MultiValve will display the data strings as it is
storing them. Each data string will appear with the word "LOADED". After all the user data
has been loaded, the MultiValve will display "LOAD COMPLETE". Do not play back the data
from the sequencer faster than it was loaded, as errors may occur (errors may also occur if
any knob is turned or any button is pressed before the message "LOAD COMPLETE"
appears).

LOAD COMPLETE
RECEIVING MULTIVALVE
If errors occur during transmission, the unit will display "RECEIVE ERROR" for transmis-
sion errors and "XMEM ERROR" for internal hardware errors. Errors occurring in trans-
mission does not indicate that all of the received data is corrupted. Only the transmission
string where the error occurred is corrupted.
Y
When receiving a Bulk Load, it is important that the data loaded to the MultiValve is not transmitted
faster than it was originally dumped from the MultiValve. If information is sent too fast to the
MultiValve, an error will occur.
When dumping information from a data storage device, such as an Alesis Data Disk, it is necessary
to perform the dump in
sequence mode rather than sysx mode. Sequence mode will dump the informa-
tion back to the MultiValve at the same rate as it was received from the MultiValve. The MultiValve
can receive a data dump at about 65Hz (or about 1 byte every 15 milliseconds).
