Yeloc2 -
I had a similar problem on my MarkIV less than a month after we acquired it. I called the dealer who suggested the following:
1. Turn off the DKV.
2. Unplug the DKV.
3. Wait five minutes.
4. Plug it in again. You should hear the DKV in "reboot" mode after you plug it in.
5. Once the DKV is fully "on" again, try playing a song.
This worked for us, and we've had no problems since (bearing in mind we only acquired the DKV on May 31).
According to our dealer over 90% of the issues with the MarkIV can be solved by this "unplug and restart" procedure. If this doesn't work, I'd suggest you call your dealer.
Mike

Just contact your Yamaha dealer or technician. It should be easily fixable and most likely under warranty. --- On Sat 07/12, yeloc2 < enquirer@... > wrote:

I've had this happen occasionally over the years -- seems like there should be a more elegant solution -- software patch, Yamaha? --- In disklavier@yahoogroups.com, "yeloc2" <enquirer@...> wrote:

Had that problem. Shutting down the piano and restarting it temporarily fixed it for me. Then my delightful dealer St John's Music in Calgary came out and checked all the diagnostics and cleaned all of the cable contacts and reseated them. Seemed to make a difference.
