Run the program and verify that the REMOTE LED is lit on the
synthesizer. If it is not, verify that the synthesizer address is set to

REMOTE statement but the synthesizer REMOTE LED does not
turn on, perform the operational checks as outlined in the respective
Operating and Service Manuals to find the defective device.
