Troubleshooting
If the piano does not work properly, check the following
first:
The piano cannot be switched on
Check that the power cord is securely and correctly con-
nected,
No sound is heard
Check that the [VOLUME] slider is not set to the far left
position.
Check if the RD-100 is connected to an amplifier and
whether the amp, etc., is switched on.
No sound is heard (when an external MIDI device is
connected)
Check whether all relevant devices are switched on.
Check whether Local is set to “Off”.
Demo song cannot be played
Check whether the indicator of a Track button lights. No
sound is heard from a Track whose indicator is dark.
Press the Track button to light it.
During recording or playback, you cannot select other
demo songs. Stop recording or playback.
Two tones are played when keyboard is pressed
Check whether the Dual mode is active.
If a sequencer is connected, check whether its Soft
THRU function is turned off.
Not all notes sound
The maximum number of voices of the RD-100 is 64. If
you play along with a demo song and frequently use the
Pedal, and the performance data exceeds the maximum
voices, so that some notes are cut off.
The pitch of the keyboard or demo songs sounds incorrect.
Check whether the Key Transpose is off.
Check the temperament and Stretch Tuning settings.
Check the Master Tuning setting.
Pedal is not functioning properly; it does not have any effect,
or it stays on.
Check that the pedal is securely and correctly connected.
Recorded data is erased
Did you press the [REC] button while holding the Track
button down?
About 8 hours after the piano is disconnected from the
wall outlet, the data will be automatically erased. Once
data is erased, it cannot be restored.
