14-1 Troubleshooting (Cont'd)

In the case of troubles occurring during operation of the GY-DV550, it performs a self-test to identify the cause and displays the result in the form of an error code. The error code consists of the "main code" which indicates its contents and the "sub-code" which indicates the details. Depending on the status of the GY-DV550 at this time, indications may also appear on the LCD display, the WARNING indicator may activate and the alarm tone may be generated.

In the viewfinder, the "VTR WARNING (DEW)" indication appears when condensation is detected, and the "VTR WARNING (STOP)", "VTR WARNING (HARD)" or "VTR WARNING (REW)" indication appears depending on the contents of the error code when some of the other error codes are displayed.

*In the Auto OFF status, it is impossible to operate the GY- DV550. This condition can be cancelled by switching the OPERATE switch OFF and then switching it ON again. If the same problem occurs again after the power is turned ON, there may be something wrong with the GY-DV550. Please consult the person in charge of professional video equipment at your nearest JVC-authorized service agent.

*If the display operates abnormally, Press the RESET switch inside the lithium battery case, and then set the OPERATE switch to ON again. (See page 36)

Please note that pressing the RESET switch will also reset the time code data and time and date data.

The GY-DV550 is a microcomputer-controlled piece of equipment, which may malfunction due to external noise or interference. In this case, set the OPERATE switch to OFF, remove the lithium backup battery, and then set the OPERATE switch to ON again after a few minutes.
