Power on the PC2, while it says Please Wait on the display, press the:<\/p>\n<p>Panic button for keyboard models<br \/>Edit\/Store button for rack models<\/p>\n<p>After a few seconds, you&#8217;ll see a message indicating that you&#8217;re running the boot block. The bottom line of the display shows the boot block version number. * This message does not stay on the screen for long, so check it quickly. If the version is lower than 2.0, you need to update your boot block. Please see the CD-Rom manuals or another knowledge base article for how to do this.<\/p>\n<p>CHECKING THE OS VERSION NUMBER<\/p>\n<p>There are two ways to check the version of the operating system on the PC2 series. The first is to watch the display as the unit powers up. It will say Welcome to the PC2, and the version number.<\/p>\n<p>The second way to check the version of the operating system is to check the value of the OS Version parameter in the Global menu.<\/p>\n<p>Press the Global  button, then press the Right cursor button until you see a parameter called OS Version. If you don&#8217;t see this parameter, your OS is version 1.x and needs to be udpated.<\/p>\n<p>CHECKING THE SOUNDWARE VERSION NUMBER<\/p>\n<p>Press the Global  button, then press the Right cursor button until you see Int Sound Ver (Internal Sound Version) parameter. If you don&#8217;t see this parameter, your operating system version is older than 3.0, and you need to update both your operating system and soundware version.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[],"tags":[35422],"storecat":[],"itemids":[10431,27096,27100,27101],"manufacturers":[33482],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Check out the How do I check all the software versions of my  PC2, PC2R, or PC2X? page at Sweetwater \u2014 the world&#039;s leading music technology and instrument retailer!\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/articles\/check-all-software-versions-of-pc2-pc2r-pc2x\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"How do I check all the software versions of my PC2, PC2R, or PC2X? - SweetCare\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"This information is taken from the .pdf file manuals\\ROMinst.pdf on the PC2 CD-Rom.
