    Indicates this Instrument s manufacturer ID. 15.3.3 MOD : Model ID Format: 00010111B (17H) 00000001B (01H) These two successive bytes (MSB, LSB) indicate the PX-150,350M,750,850,1200GP, and AP-250,450,650M Model ID. 15.3.4 dev : MIDI DeviceID 00H - 7FH Format: 0dddddddB The contents of this field in a received message are compared with the Model s MIDI Device ID, and receipt of the incoming message is allowed only when the two IDs match.
  • Page 32 IPS:Individual Parameter Send Individual Parameter Send Indicates an individual parameter value send message. When the Instrument receives this action, it rewrites the value specified by the data field with the specified parameter value. 15.3.6 cat : Category Format: 0cccccccB 0cccccccB = Category (7bit) The category indicates the categories of data handled by the System Exclusive Message.
  • Page 33 When there are multiple parameters with the same ID inside the same category, as with the mixer channel volume setting for example, the block number required to specify to which block data belongs is specified as:kkkkkkkjjjjjjjiiiiiiiB (Binary). When the parameter block has a multi-dimensional array structure, bit 21 of the block number is divided into prescribed bit fields based on the rules explained below.
  • Page 34: Parameter Transfer

    The value of this field specifies the size of the parameter value stored in the data field. Data length indicates the length of the array being transferred minus 1 when the parameter contains a character string or other similar array structure. 15.3.13 data : Parameter Data Format:...
