Message Classifications
Instrument SysEx operations are classified as Parameter type for send and receive of an individual parameter, and
parameter set type for bulk send and receive of a set of parameters. These SysEx types can be further broken
down into parameter categories according to the item being transferred.
The operation classification of a message is determined in accordance with the value of the "Action" field of the
PX-110/PX-310/PX-700 SysEx message. The basic format for all operation type messages is described in "15.2
Message Structure", below.
