This time of year being heating season, many homes are very dry and static
electricity is generated just by walking across your carpeting. If you go
to turn on your DKV and miss the rubber button, and touch the metal side of
your control box instead, the static charge can do some strange things to
your DKV. The most common one seems to be that your grand piano now thinks
it's an upright.
Turn off the DKV and unplug it from the wall. Wait at least 15 minutes.
Plug it in and turn it back on and see if you still have the problem.
If the problem is still there, turn off the DKV. Now turn it back on, but
this time hold down the L and R buttons while you power up. The control box
should say Test Mode. Push the Yes button once. The control box should say
CTRL SHEET. Push the fast forward button (>>) once. The first line tells
you what version of the software you have installed and when it came out.
The second line is the important one. It should read
55RCD/ENG/REC/GP/S/DB51 The GP is the piano type. If it says UP instead,
the piano thinks it is an upright, and you need to push the YES button as
many times as it takes to change it to GP. If the S is not present, then
the piano does not think it has a Silent Mode, so you need to push the
[RECORD] to select S. Now turn off the DKV and turn it back on in normal
fashion.
If this does not help, call your Disklavier Technician.
