May require settings change to operate with Yamaha keyboards

A couple of commentators have pointed to problems in order to sustain operations for the first time he could not pedal for the function and the second describes the evolution of the setting foot switch. Although the pedal has a switch able to maintain normal, in collaboration with some keyboards, this may not be sufficient to allow reliable operation of all keyboards. I could not work with my Yamaha CP300 with foot / switch in both positions. Yamaha had to change the "pedal style" to "break" (in "other settings" menu) and set the SP-2 switch to the factory ("1").

I was curious to know why you are having this problem, thinking that maybe my pedal was faulty, so I checked with ohm meter and found that only 150-300 ohms when driving. I opened it and saw that the switch uses an elastomer, and this high "on" resistance is a characteristic of these switches. It seems that Yamaha will be reduced "on" switch blade switch resistance to SP-2 is not enough to see Yamaha switches are closed, how to "do".

Mine seems to be reliable (so far), and may not be enough differences between individuals, that this problem can not occur with all users of Yamaha. I would buy another SP-2, but I want to make sure I knew the store refund if you want to use the Yamaha keyboard. Moreover, even if everyone is talking about a "support" does not allow the pedal support "partial" true Yamaha FC-3 supports some Yamaha digital piano, the pedal must be used for "soft", "sustained" or "aux" functions of the CP300.
