Disklavier

I know how to get into the maint mode of my DC3A.  I have seen my 
tech run the callibration routine several times.  Is there any harm 
in me doing this myself?  Besides "you should not do this if you are 
not a Yamaha tech, etc."....  Thanks.

I don't see any harm in doing this yourself.  At the
end of the calibration, you should get the message  OK!
if you get a Pass number or numbers, write them down.

The reason you calibrate the Disklavier is to get a
better Record mode.  All it does it adjust the sensors
to the physical condition of the piano action.

Thanks.  The tech did it because a couple of notes were playing 
louder and softer than others (when he ran the routine that starts 
at the 1st key and goes up to 88).  After the calibration, the notes 
were in alignment with the rest.  Cool stuff.

I do it too.  And the sustain pedal adjustment and calibration.  But go 
at it with trepidation and exceeding slow.  As you know, it's the fools 
who rush in where angels fear to tread. Now if I only knew how to get at 
the diagnostic codes of my Lincoln Navigator's computer.

Please remember--we don't own these things, but merely look after them 
for the next generation.
