Check out Paul DeRocco's reply to this general topic from 2009:

In short - there's no one 'command' to initiate a dump of all the
programs. You can send one program from the panel - but if you want to
get them all at one time, you'd need to write a sequence of SYSEX
commands to request them.

There's other related information in the archives too - just search for
'sysex'.
