When you say the devices aren't communicating, are you basing that on something related to the linking functionality, or are you saying if you bring up the MIDI listen dialog and press keys on the Clavinova that you see no messages being received? The linking functionality is specific the Genos and SX line of devices. That will not work with the Clavinova CVP709, unless I'm mistaken and Yamaha added that functionality to more devices. When you say you copied the settings of the genos setup, what exactly does that mean? Are you trying to use the same MIDI messages? That most likely won't work. You'd need to send different messages to command the CVP, and to be honest, I'm not entirely sure what the CVP supports. You can try sending patch select messages and such, but you may want to consult the data list for the CVP709 to see what MIDI messages it supports.
