Troubleshooting

If you encounter any of the following difficulties when playing your PCY Series pad unit, take the steps
indicated to resolve them before ordering repairs.
No Sound, Volume is Low
 Is the pad connected to the correct input number of the DTX Series Drum Trigger Module using the
supplied stereo phone cable? When a pad is connected with a mono phone cable, the voices
assigned to the edge and cup sections are not produced.
 If using a PCY135, PCY155 or PCY175 pad unit, try increasing the LEVEL adjustor setting. (See
"Adjusting Output Level (PCY135, PCY155 and PCY175) " on page 13 for more details.)
Multiple sounds are produced each time the pad is hit (i.e., double triggering).
 If using a PCY135, PCY155 or PCY175 pad unit, try decreasing the LEVEL adjustor setting. When
the level setting is too high, large trigger signals take longer to fade away, and the drum trigger mod-
ule may interpret them as multiple signals in quick succession. (See "Adjusting Output Level
(PCY135, PCY155 and PCY175) " on page 13 for more details.)
Refer to the owner's manual included with the drum trigger module and/or to the page for your
specific product on the Yamaha website regarding the problems described above and any other
problems that you may be experiencing. If a solution cannot be found to the problem after con-
sulting the manuals, contact the dealer from whom you purchased the product.
