Troubleshooting
Something not working as it should? In many cases what appears to be a malfunction can be traced to a sim-
ple error that can be remedied immediately. Before assuming that your PSR-510 is faulty, please check the fol-
lowing points.
POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTIONPROBLEM
• The PSR-510 speakers produce a “pop”
sound whenever the power is turned ON or
OFF.
• This is normal and is no cause for alarm.
• The orchestration part to which the voice is assigned must be turned
ON (page 10).
• Make sure that the voice volume parameter for the orchestration part to
which the voice is assigned is set to an appropriate level (page 13).
• The selected voice does not sound when
the keyboard is played.
• The edit mode for the voice to which the changes are to be applied must
be turned ON (page 12).
• Voice parameter changes do not affect the
desired voice.
• Some sections of some styles have no data in the rhythm track.
Try turning Auto Accompaniment on and fingering an appropriate chord.
The Auto Accompaniment should begin to play.
• No sound when rhythm started.
• Sustain ON/OFF status will be reversed when POWER is turned on with
the Footswitch pressed or the footswitch is plugged in while it is being
pressed.
Turn POWER OFF and turn it back ON to return to normal status.
• Sustain ON/OFF status has been reversed.
• You may have executed the clear function from a point in the middle of
the track, thus only clearing the data after that point. Press the [RESET]
button to go to the beginning of the track, then clear.
• Song Memory track indicator does not go
out when the track is cleared.
• When sending Custom Accompaniment, Song Memory, Multi Pad, and/
or Registration Memory data to the PSR-510 as separate blocks from a
sequencer or other MIDI device, either send all blocks in succession
leaving no more than a 2-second break between blocks, or wait until the
voice display appears on the PSR-510 after each block and send the
blocks separately.
• MIDI bulk reception of separate data
blocks fails.
• Reduced volume
• Poor sound quality.
• Improper demo or song memory playback.
• MULTI DISPLAY has gone out and the
panel setting has been set to default.
• The batteries probably need to be replaced. Replace all six batteries
with new ones of the same type, as described on page 5.
• You are probably exceeding the maximum polyphony of the PSR-510.
The PSR-510 can play up to 28 notes at the same time — including
split, dual, auto-accompaniment, and multi pad notes. Notes exceeding
this limit will not sound.
• Not all simultaneously-played notes sound.
• Auto accompaniment won’t function prop-
erly. No lower keyboard sound.
• Auto accompaniment won’t sound right if you’re using SINGLE type
fingering when the SINGLE mode is not selected (page 26).
• Are you sure you’re playing in the Auto-Accompaniment section of the
keyboard?
• Are you playing chords that the PSR-510 can recognize (see chord
types on pages 25, 26, and 27)?
