HOW TO KNOW THE VERSION
Before you start, check the system program version of your DJ-202.
 

1. While holding down the [ rotary selector ] in the Browser Section, connect the DJ-202 and the computer and turn on the power.
2. The illumination pattern of the Performance pads in the Deck Section and the buttons in the Mixer Section indicates the current version.
   
   Step 1. Determine the version of the DJ-202.
   Ver.1.12
   
   Ver.1.11
   
   Ver.1.10
   
   
   * If a button other than either of the ones shown above lights up, the version of the DJ-202 you're using is earlier than 1.10.
   
   Step 2. The content of the update differs depending on the version currently in use.
   Ver.1.11 or Ver.1.12

   This is the latest version. Updating the DJ-202 is not necessary. You can use it as it is.

   Ver.1.10

   Update the DJ-202 to version 1.12.

   Earlier version than Ver.1.10

   After updating the DJ-202 to version 1.12, carry out a "FACTORY RESET."
    
3. After checking version of the product, power off the DJ-202 without performing any button operation.
