Troubleshooting

Symptom Advice
Cannot turn on the CDR1000.
Make sure that the power cord is connected to a suitable AC wall out-
let. See Connecting the Power Cord on page 16 for more informa-
tion.
Make sure that the CDR1000 POWER switch is set to the ON position.
See Turning On the Power on page 16 for more information.
If you still cannot turn on the CDR1000, contact your Yamaha dealer.
Cannot use the remote controller.
Make sure that the batteries are installed correctly. See Using the
Remote Controller on page 19 for more information.
Make sure the Utility Remote parameter is set to ON. See Disabling
the Remote Controller on page 50 for more information.
Perhaps the batteries need replacing. See Using the Remote Control-
ler on page 19 for more information.
The LOCK indicator flashes. A ashing LOCK indicator indicates that the CDR1000 is not locked to
the selected digital input source, in which case recording is not possi-
ble. See Selecting the Input Source on page 25 for more information.
Pressing and holding the [UTILITY]
button does not cancel the Utility
functions.
The [UTILITY] button must be pressed for two or more seconds in order
to cancel a Utility functions.
Cannot monitor a signal
connected to the ANALOG IN.
Make sure that the signal is connected to the ANALOG IN connector
correctly and that the input source is set to ANALOG. Engage Record
Standby mode and set the recording level using the REC LEVEL control.
The ANALOG IN signal level is too
low or too high.
Set the ANALOG IN level switch to match the operating level of the
connected equipment (10 dBV or +4 dB), and set the recording level
using the REC LEVEL control.
Cannot engage Record Standby
mode. Recording is not possible on nalized CD-R discs. Load another disc.
See Preparing to Record on page 25 for more information.
Cannot increment the track
number manually.
The track number cannot be incremented manually when Auto
Rec/Track or Sync Recording is used. See Incrementing Track Numbers
Manually on page 32 for more information.
Cannot increment the index
number manually.
The index number cannot be incremented manually when Auto
Rec/Track or Sync Recording is used. See Incrementing Index Num-
bers Manually on page 33 for more information.
Using the Auto Rec/Track function,
the track number does not
increment automatically.
If the space between tracks is very short, or the threshold is set too
high, the track number may not increment properly. See Using Auto
Rec Start & Track Increment on page 34 for more information.
Using the Auto Rec/Track function,
the track number increments
during quiet passages.
Try raising the threshold to see if that helps. Auto Rec/Track may not
work very well with music that contains many silent passages. See
Using Auto Rec Start & Track Increment on page 34 for more infor-
mation.
Recording stops when using the
Auto Rec/Track function.
If the level of the input signal is below the specied threshold for 20 or
more seconds, recording stops automatically. See Using Auto Rec Start
& Track Increment on page 34 for more information.
Cannot insert a mute.
Only one mute can be inserted at the beginning and end of each track.
See Inserting a Two-second Mute on page 35 for more information.
Rec Mute cannot be used with All-track Sync Recording. See Inserting
a Two-second Mute on page 35 for more information.
Cannot apply a Fade In or Fade
Out.
The Fade In and Fade Out parameters must be set before engaging
Record Standby mode. Fade In and Fade Out cannot be used with Sync
Recording. See Applying a Fade In on page 37 and Applying a Fade
