CHAPTER 2. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

3.Troubleshooting

3.1When an Error Code is Displayed

[Remedy]

Check for any abnormalities in the mounting of probable faulty parts or connector connections referring to the table below.

Try replacing probable faulty parts referring to the below.

[NOTE]

The error code is displayed on the LCD Monitor.

Adjustments must be performed after the part has been replaced. For details, see the chapter of “Adjustments”.

Error Code

Name

Occurrence Conditions

Cause and Probable Faulty Part

E02

AF

AF processing did not end within the

MAIN PCB ASS’Y

 

TIME OUT

specified time.

 

 

 

The focus lens was not driven.

MAIN PCB ASS’Y

 

 

 

 

E03

EF

Auto Flash Control did not end within the

MAIN PCB ASS’Y

 

TIME OUT

specified time.

 

E09

JPEG DMA

JPEG processing did not end within the

MAIN PCB ASS’Y

 

TIME OUT

specified time.

 

 

E14

UNKOWN

When unkown error, cause of which is

UNKOWN

 

 

not known, occurs.

 

 

 

E16

IMAGING TIME

When communication between CPU and

MAIN PCB ASS’Y

 

OUT

peripheral IC is not completed within the

 

 

 

specified time during recording using

 

 

 

EVF or after completion of recording.

 

E18

ZOOM LENS

Movement of the lens barrel did not end

MAIN PCB ASS’Y

 

ERROR

within the specified time.

 

 

E23

CF NO SPACE

When the CF becomes full during writing

 

 

 

of photographed images to CF, writing is

 

 

 

repeatedly performed with the JPEG

 

 

 

compression ratio successively increased

 

 

 

to reduce the size of the image file until it

MAIN PCB ASS’Y

 

 

can be successfully written to CF.

 

 

 

This error occurs when writing of the

 

 

 

JPEG image file fails after 10 retries at

 

 

 

increasingly higher compression ratios.

 

E24

POWER ON

The power of the imaging circuit on the

MAIN PCB ASS’Y

 

ERROR

MAIN PCB ASS’Y was not detected.

 

 

E25

FOCUS PI

Detection of the focus PI (photo-

OPTICAL UNIT

 

ERROR

interrupter) failed.

MAIN PCB ASS’Y

E26

CAPTURE

Writing of the photograph image to

 

 

TIME OUT

SDRAM did not end within the specified

MAIN PCB ASS’Y

 

 

time.
