Tom,

That seems a little strange.  I wouldn't have thought that the PCY3
setting should affect the closing.  I use a PCY65S with the PCY3
trigger setting and an offset of -10 with no problems.  I assume you
are using the correct hi-hat pedal?  One thing to try is the hi-hat
pedal physical adjustment.  You can adjust the pedal with a drum key
at the front of the pedal.  As shipped I found I had to stamp on mine
too much and that fixed it.

Keith.
