MEMO

When you press [ALL/ENTER] on the SPD-11, the data is forwarded from the SPD-11 to the SPD-20. When reception begins, �Lod� appears in the SPD-20�s display.
Bulk Load is then completed.

When transferring Patches 1�64 used for Patch Expand on the SPD-11 (p. 70) to the SPD-20, you must then use Patch Copy to copy Patches 1�64 on the SPD-11, to Patches 96�99 on the SPD-20.
