Overview
This explains how to convert YS80 (SLPC) programs using a ROM writer.

Note
The user ROM mounted on an SLPC contains the user program and default parameters. Data such as tuning data that is actually operated on the SLPC is not included in user the ROM. If you want to convert data, read the operation parameters and ACTION switch settings from the side panel of the SLPC, and record them on a parameter sheet. Enter the recorded operation parameters in the YSS1000. When entering the parameters in the YSS1000, set the scale parameters first. Use the parameter sheet shown in section 11.4, "Parameter Sheet for SLPC-YS1700 Data Conversion."
