Warnings and Responses
Warnings are displayed on the LCD monitor or the viewfinder if there was a mistaken operation, if the battery or tape is low, or if there is a problem on the VTR.
In addition, if the tape or battery is low or the VTR has a problem, the tally lamp flashes (or lights) and an alarm is output from the monitor speaker or PHONES jack.
