Hi, for anyone still looking for information, you can send any CZ-101 compatible sysex files to the CZ-230-S. The patches from http://czounds.com/ works well.
Now, to load in the other memories (other than the default 96), you need to modify the sysex code.
To do so, in midi-ox, you go to view>sysex, then in the sysex windows you go to "command window > load file.."
The .syx code should then be loaded in the editor and the beginning should look like this :
F0 44 00 00 70 20 60
I'm gonna explain part by part what each of these numbers mean
F0 : Start a sysex message...
44 00 00 : ... for a Casio synth
70 : ...using midi channel 1... (72= midi channel 2 etc..)
20 : ...to send a patch...
60 : ...to preset number 96... (61=preset number 97 and so on...)
And the following data is the actual patch data (I guess).
After you've done the modifications to the midi channels and/or preset number, you can go to "Command window > send sysex" and the patch should be loaded in the right spot.

If you're on windows, you can use the following tutorial to load sysex(.syx) files to the CZ-230-S : http://www.kasploosh.com/projects/CZ/how_to/midiox-cz101-send.html

Also, I got most of the info for this sysex code from this page : http://www.kasploosh.com/projects/CZ/how_to/midiox-cz101-receive.html
The rest I translated for the CZ-230-S using trial and error.
