Roland DIF-AT is an interface box to connect Alesis ADAT or
TASCAM DA series and the VM-7200/7100 Processors.
If you connect the DIF-AT and the Processor with the R-BUS
(RMDB2) cable and turn on the power of the Processor, it
detects the version of DIF-AT software, and depending on
the version, Processor may update the DIF-AT software to
the latest version. (Auto-update function)
While updating, ADAT indicator and TASCAM indicator
flash alternatively. And CTRL indicator on the Processor
flashes.
* Be sure not to turn off the power of the Processor,
or disconnect the R-BUS (RMDB2) cable.
