Kawai Synthesizers

Do you mean the instrument doesn't receive its own data which you have  
sent to the same SysEx librarian? And such transfers work with your  
other instruments?

I don't know much about this instrument but try these common sense  
steps:
In the instrument:
- check  if some Memory Protect function is not switched on
- check if the receiving of SysEx data is not blocked or switched off
- check if the receiving MIDI channel is not different from the  
transmitting channel
- check if the Device number (when there's some) is properly set

In the computer:
- try different hardware (MIDI interface) with the same software
- try different software with the same hardware (SysEx data can be  
recorded and transmitted from sequencer as well)
- try different computer
- check the setting for transmitting SysEx data
