TROUBLE SHOOTING
GUIDE
Appendix:
PROBLEM Keyboard does not power up?
POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS • Make sure the power supply is connected to the wall outlet
• Make sure the power supply is properly connected to the keyboard
PROBLEM Keyboard does not seem to be sending MIDI notes to my modules?
POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS Make sure you are not in the EDIT MODE.
Make sure the ZONE switch of the ZONE you are trying to play is on.
Make sure the MIDI channel you are playing on is enabled on your sound source.
Make sure your sound modules audio outputs are connected properly to your mixer or amp.
Make sure your mixer amp or sound system is on and the volume settings are up.
PROBLEM I have made changes in EDIT MODE but the changes do not seem to be present when I
return to PLAY MODE?
POSSIBLE SOLUTION • This can happen very easily. When you enter EDIT MODE make sure you are editing the ZONE
that you were playing before hitting EDIT. When entering edit mode you will be on the ZONE
you last edited not necessarily the ZONE you have on in PLAY MODE.
PROBLEM I know I am sending MIDI to my module because I see the MIDI indicator light up when
I play but I hear nothing?
POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS • Make sure the VOLUME PEDAL is up!
• Make sure your sound modules audio outputs are connected properly to your mixer or amp.
• Make sure your mixer amp or sound system is on and the volume settings are up.
PROBLEM The SUSTAIN PEDAL does not seem to work? c
POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS • Make sure it is plugged in properly to the SUSTAIN PEDAL INPUT
• Make sure the SUSTAIN PEDAL is enabled for the ZONE you are playing
PROBLEM The SUSTAIN PEDAL seems to work in reverse?
POSSIBLE SOLUTION • Power the keyboard down. With the SUSTAIN PEDAL plugged in to the SUSTAIN PEDAL INPUT
power the keyboard up. This will cause the SL-SL-880 to sense the proper polarity setting for
the type of pedal you are using and adjust properly.
PROBLEM The WHEELS or AFTERTOUCH do not seem to work?
POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS • Make sure they are enabled on the ZONE you are playing
• Make sure they are enabled in the Patch in your module you are sending to.
PROBLEM I am playing a ZONE that I know is on but nothing is happening?
POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS • Make sure you are playing within the SPLIT range of notes set up for that ZONE
• Make sure that the MIDI channel is set correctly.
• Make sure the VOLUME PEDAL is depressed and all other volume setting are up.
