Dgx 500 Velocity Problem

I have had a DGX-500 for years with no problems. Just now, all the Fs and Bs have begun to transmit at maximum velocity only. This is true of all sounds and can be seen as maximum-velocity notes among the normal ones in music software MIDI files when I record. How do I fix this, please?
