Struggling with Behringer BCR2000

Today I tried to reactivate my old Behringer BCR2000 and edit the Midi setup of this fantastic Midi controller.
However the BC edit which is the only editor available from Behringer is still in low Beta (several years into its existence - I believe it was introduced back in 2004 or something like that). And I cannot transfer presets to the BCR2000 - I get an error "Timeout error "$rev R1" ...  which is an old known problem.
So trying to work around this I am using the BC Edit as an editor only and will now export the edited patches as syx files and try to send them to the BCR2000 using MidiOX instead.
I've downloaded the MidiOX program now and will try this strategy....
It actually works I can now edit the presets in BC Edit, export as syx files and send them to the BCR2000 using the MidiOX program - phew :-)
