Ladies and Gents, I have a DC2A MarkIII disklavier. The last few days I've encountered an unusual message as I indicated in the Subject line above. Can anybody tell me what that means? I can't find it in the manuals. Thanks. D Ivey

What it probably means is that you will soon be introducing yourself to your new piano/Disklavier technician. The thermostat involved is undoubtedly on one of the two pedal solenoids. It is there to protect the solenoid coil--and to save you from a big bill.. Normally, those solenoids run quite cooly--even with continuous play and lots of pedaling. However, they can become overloaded if the pedal(s) are out of adjustment. There are both mechanical and electronic adjustments to be made and a calibration to be done through the control unit. Therefore, you will want a tech who has been trained by Yamaha.

Definitely call the Disklavier tech. I went through this last year with my DC2A Mark III. He aligned the pedals and did the calibration, and it would still do it in heavy playback.... turned out to be a faulty solenoid. However, it was about 8 hours of labor all together (several visits) and all under warranty, and having a knowledgeable tech really made the difference.
