If you encounter any of the following difficulties when playing your PCY Series pad unit, please take the
steps indicated to resolve them before ordering repairs.

No Sound, Volume is Low

Is the pad connected to the correct input number of the DTX Series Drum Trigger Module using the
supplied stereo phone cable? When a pad is connected with a mono phone cable, the voices
assigned to the edge and cup sections are not produced.
If using a PCY135 or PCY155 pad unit, try increasing the LEVEL adjustor setting. (See “Adjusting
Output Level (PCY135 and PCY155) ” on page8 for more details.)

Multiple sounds are produced each time the pad is hit (i.e., double triggering).

If using a PCY135 or PCY155 pad unit, try decreasing the LEVEL adjustor setting. When the level
setting is too high, large trigger signals take longer to fade away, and the drum trigger module may
interpret them as multiple signals in quick succession. (See “Adjusting Output Level (PCY135 and
PCY155) ” on page 8 for more details.)
Also, please refer to the Owner’s Manual that came with your DTX Series Drum Trigger Module
for more information regarding the problems described above and any other problems that you
may be experiencing. If a solution cannot be found to the problem after consulting the manuals,
please contact the dealer from whom you purchased the product.
