1.7 EMERGENCY DISPLAY

Whenever some abnormal signal is input to the syscon CPU, an error number (E01, as an example) is displayed on the LCD monitor or (in the electronic view finder).

In every error status, such the message as shown below alternately appear over and over.

In an emergency mode, all operations except turning on/ off the POWER switch are ineffectual.
