Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

Could not see this post addressed.  I have the DtxtremeIII with RHH 130 
Hi Hat.   Everything is set up per manual, only issue is with the RHH 
130Hi-Hat.  Not sure if its a problem or just how it performs, but the 
stick noise is far louder than any typical volume setting for a hi-hat.
Is there something I am missing or is this just the way it is.
Another ? pertaining to the ride symbal.  Although it is set up 
correctly and I am connected with a stero cable, the cup, cybal, and 
edge are not recognized.  If in any setup mode, I strike the cup, pad, 
or edge and nothing changes.??
