Alert list

This is a list of the alerts that may be indicated in the front panel [PRESET] display.

Alert 

number

Meaning

Response

01–09

The device has not started up correctly.

Turn the power off, then turn on after waiting at least 6 seconds. If this does not 
solve the problem, please initialize the memory (use rear panel DIP switches 7 
and 8.) Should this also fails, contact your Yamaha dealer.

10

The internal backup battery has been 
completely exhausted or is not installed.

When you turn off the power, the current settings will be lost, and will return to the 
default values. Please stop use immediately, and contact your Yamaha dealer.

11

The internal backup battery has run 
extremely low, and it is possible that the 
internal memory has been cleared.

When you turn off the power, the current settings will be lost, and will return to the 
default values. Please stop use immediately, and contact your Yamaha dealer.

12

The internal backup battery has only a 
small amount of power remaining.

This does not affect the operation of the device. However, if you continue using the 
device, the settings may be lost and reset to the default values. Contact your 
Yamaha dealer as soon as possible.

13

A problem has occurred with the internal 
clock, and it has been initialized (January 
1, 2000, 0:00)

If this occurs each time you turn on the power, it is possible that the internal 
backup battery has run down or that the device has malfunctioned. Contact your 
Yamaha dealer.
If this occurs only once, an abnormality was detected with the clock setting and it 
was initialized; use MTX Editor to set the time.

14

The current preset saved in internal mem-
ory has been lost.

Recall the preset. If this does not solve the problem, contact your Yamaha dealer.

15

The settings saved in internal memory 
have been lost.

Either the internal backup battery has run low, or the device has malfunctioned. 
Contact your Yamaha dealer.

21

The word clock master has become 
unlocked.

Make sure that the word clock signal is being input correctly.

22

The digital signal being input to the [YDIF 
IN] connector is not synchronized to the 
word clock of this device.

Make sure that YDIF cables are properly connected.
Use cables that meet the required specifications.

23

The digital signal being input to the [YDIF 
IN] connector is not locked to the word 
clock of this device.

30

There is a problem with the connection of 
the [YDIF IN] connector.

40

Duplicate IP addresses.

Change the IP addresses so that there are no duplicates.

41

IP address was not set within 60 seconds 
of startup.

Please check rear panel DIP switch 6 (IP Setting). If DIP switch 6 is set to “PC,” 
use MTX Editor or the DHCP server to specify the device IP address.

42

A device within the MTX system was not 
found on the network.

Power-on all devices in the system, and make sure that they are correctly con-
nected to the network.

43

Too many devices connected to the NET-
WORK connector.

Disconnect unneeded devices from the network.

50

The UNIT ID is set to “00.”

Set the UNIT ID to something other than “00.”

51

Devices with identical UNIT IDs were 
found connected within the same net-
work.

Change the UNIT ID so that there are no duplicates.

52

A communication error occurred with the 
[DCP] connection.

• If an error was shown in the DCP panel, refer to the DCP owner’s manual and 

take the appropriate action

• Ensure that the panel ID of the DCP units do not conflict
• Verify that the cables are correctly connected and are within the specified length

53

The DCP connected to the [DCP] connec-
tor has been configured differently from 
the project settings.

• Are all required DCP units connected?
• Could a DCP unit of a different model be connected?

56

SD memory card was not recognized.

Use an SD memory card that complies with the specifications. (See page 22.)

58

Unable to play the specified file or folder 
in the SD player.

Verify that the specified audio file or folder exists in the SD memory card. There 
must be at least one playable audio file in the specified folder.

60

A preset recall attempt has failed.

Initialize the memory of the device (use rear panel DIP switches 7 and 8.) If this 
does not solve the problem, please contact your Yamaha dealer.

61

The recall could not be executed because 
the preset to be recalled when the MTX 
starts up was not found.

Specify a preset that exists. No sound will be output unless an appropriate preset 
is recalled.

64

The preset could not be recalled.

• The Preset selected for recall cannot be recalled as no data has been stored to it.
• Another device may have been added after presets were stored. Please synchro-

nize and check all Presets using MTX Editor, edit as necessary and store again.

70

Synchronization has not been com-
pleted. It may be that synchronization was 
halted before completion.

Perform synchronization again using MTX Editor. If this does not solve the prob-
lem, initialize the memory of the device and synchronize again. If this also fails, 
contact your Yamaha dealer.

71

The UNIT ID settings when synchroniza-
tion was performed do not match the cur-
rent UNIT ID settings.

Do not change any UNIT ID’s after performing synchronization. If you’ve changed 
any UNIT ID’s, perform synchronization again.
