When you are using the Motif XS with the Yamaha Steinberg FW driver (YSFW) you need to verify the following settings in your Motif XS:
I didn’t write what you quoted. What I said was:
Â
No, mLAN is not FW.
If you can’t change the IEEE1394 Driver setting from mLAN to FW, first verify that the XS firmware update to 1.60 was successful…
Perhaps someone else might have more insight and will post. |

If you cannot set IEEE1394 Driver in Utility mode to “FW"…
Download:
Carefully read about Test Mode, then run Test 22.

The XS firmware is the most recent version. The mLAN appears to be working, as best as can be determined when the FW ports aren’t connected. If you have a computer that will run the old mLAN Driver/mLAN Tools, you could try that instead of the YSFW Driver, and see if the IEEE1394 Firmware Updater will work that way. If you still can’t change the IEEE1394 Driver setting from mLAN to FW (using [INC/YES] button), and can’t run the IEEE1394 Firmware Updater, then I suggest you contact Yamaha Support in your country - contact information is on the last page of the Owner’s Manual. Sorry, but there are limits to the help that can be provided via a forum. |

There is no tech support in Belarus.

The IEEE1394 firmware update must be done via FW.
Please see both pages of this thread:
Cables can be tested with an ohmmeter. If you’re not sure whether you have a good FW cable, get another one, and try the driver installation and IEEE1394 update again. Try both FW connectors on the XS - either one is acceptable.
If unsuccessful with a known-good FW cable…
Contacting Yamaha Support via telephone is usually better than sending a message, assuming language isn’t a problem. I have no further suggestions. |
