Brian,
It is an old electronic piano from the late 70's I believe. The only number onther than CP-30 I have is the serial number on it. Since it came from free-cycle there was no paperwork of any kind with it. When searching on the internet I fuond two places that said they had services manuals but wanted money for them. Since I didn't trust the web site to be truthful without a sample I won't buy from them. Other search results have given me videos of people playing and information leading me to believe that there was a CP series. Thakns for the quick response. It would be very nice if I don't have to pull the power supply out and troubleshoot it blind.
Thanks
Wayne

Hi Wayne

It doesn’t list in the online list as CP-30, do you by chance have any other numbers?

Regards

Brain,

You stated that you have access to the full line of scans from Yamaha. I was wondering if you could help me with my Yamaha CP-30. It was offered for free in a local free-cycle group because it blew the fuse when it was powered on. Troubleshooting would be much easier if I had a skematic. So I ask if you have one or know if maybe the fuse should be slowblo? Any help would be welcome.

Thanks

Wayne

Hi Royce

No problem. I have access to the entire Yamaha on-line database, plus I carry a 3 CD set of schematics. I am a professional engineer repairing, to component level, electronic keyboards and guitar amps. Similarly I have access to the Kawai, Fender and Marshall databases. Regrettably many of the other manufacturers don’t treat me as well!!

Your power supply schematic was lifted direct from Yamaha hence the excellent scan.

Yes I would say that 12V should be OK, but as previously suggested I would check on the temperature of the various regulator components to ensure that things are not over-heating.

As an example of this my local church has a Yamaha P80. The power unit supplied gave a lot of trouble and I repaired it on several occasions. Then the inevitable happened I setup the unit for the pianist one Sunday morning only find that the power unit had failed. I rushed back to the workshop and picked up a selection of spare power supplies and plugged in a Kawai unit that gave out 20V, whereas the Yamaha unit only gave 12V. Two years on and all is still fine!

Regards

Thanks Brian.
What a great scan. I wish I could get my ccts to scan that well.

Looks like there is a 5V reg for the digital and the full voltage is sent to power some OpAmps
As well there is a split off regulated with a 9.1V 1A zenner but most of the load is passed through a transistor. I assume it is on a heat sink.

Did I miss anything?

So 12V should be OK.

Thanks again
Royce
