Because initialization will erase all User Temperament and Metronome settings, it is recommended that you note down any settings on the Blank Chart on page 21. If an error occurs, a message will appear on the display. Use the following chart to confirm the problem and find an appropriate solution. Calculating Pitch What is a Cent? A cent is a unit used to measure pitch that equals 1/100th of a semitone. Using cents to measure pitch, we can cal- culate the pitch using simple addition/subtraction rather than multiplication/division. For this reason, the cent is commonly used in music and acoustics as a standard for measuring pitch. Temperaments Included in the HD-200 Equal Temperament In an equal temperament, the octave is divided into 12 equal steps (equal frequency ratios). The frequency ratio between neighboring notes is (1.0594631). This temperament is usually tuned relative to a standard pitch of 440Hz. Pure Major This tuning preserves the pure mathematical intervals of the major scale, especially for the triad chords. This tuning includes pure fifths and thirds, both large and small interval whole tones, and chromatic scale semi-tones, so changing keys requires changing the pitch ratio of every note in the scale, making it impractical for keyboard or fretted instruments. Pure Minor Like the pure major, this tuning preserves the pure mathematical intervals of the minor scale. Changing keys also requires changing the pitch of every note in the scale, making it impractical for keyboard or fretted instruments. Error Messages Message Cause SolutionLow Battery !

M22 English Troubleshooting If you encounter any problems, first check the items listed below. If the solution provided below does not solve the problem, or you are experiencing a problem other than those mentioned in the list, turn the power OFF, disconnect the AC power adaptor and contact the dealer from whom you purchased the instrument to have the instrument repaired. Problem Cause Solution A “pop” like noise occurs when the power is turned ON. Electrical current is flowing through the main amplifier. This indicates that the device is operating and is nothing to worry about. If you are using external speakers, please turn down the volume on the amplifier before switching the power ON. A scratching noise or “pop” occasionally occurs. Such a noise may occur when turning on/off the power of a household appliance such as a refrigerator or washing machine, or when using an electric drill. Use an AC outlet that is as far away as possible from the device or machine that may be causing the noise. If you cannot find the source of the noise, please contact the dealer from whom you purchased the instrument. Noise occurs from the radio or TV, etc. The radio or TV is positioned too close to the instrument. Position the radio or TV as far away as possible from the instrument.

Headphones are connected to the instrument. Disconnect the headphones from the instrument. The volume of lower notes is too low. This is due to the limitations of the speaker. Connect the instrument to a keyboard amplifier, etc. The sound is distorted. Low frequency sounds are produced using an external speaker at a high volume. Reduce the volume. The sound of the instrument is resonant with the closet, windowpane or other objects close to the instrument. Remove the objects that are resonating. A low-power rated speaker is connected to the instrument. Connect a high-power rated speaker. A speaker rated 100 W or more is recommended when using this instrument for a concert band.
