Boss VF-1 Effect Processor

Hy.
I can t locate the battery. If it exist, it doesn t a have normal 
figure.
I read in this group, in old messages, that it can be fixed with a 
key combination. Another solution, is upload the flash rom with a 
midi package that i can dowload from  this group upload  files, but 
i don t have the midi cable to do it.
Any sugestion for the key combination?
or....How to identify the battery? (it doesn t have a battery like 
computers)

thanks.
