Check points

Turn on the power again. If normal conditions are not restored yet, remove the battery or AC adaptor, wait about 1 minute and then reconnect the battery or AC adaptor. Then about 1 minute later, turn on the power again. (Conducting the above operation while the media is being accessed may damage the data on the media.)

If normal operation is still not restored, detach the power connected, and consult the dealer who you purchased this unit from.

A message is displayed and you cannot record when the HDD does not operate normally due to the temperature of the unit being too high or low, when the built-in memory does not operate normally, or when the SD card cover cannot be closed due to failure of the SD card cover. In this case, press the recording start/stop button to display the media change message, allowing you to change the recording media.

Calibrate the touch screen. (l 36)

Remote control cannot be operated when the [REMOTE CONTROL] is set to [OFF].

The button-type battery of the remote control may be run out. Replace it with a new button-type battery. (l 37)

If you set [SETUP] > [DISPLAY] > [OFF], indications other than warnings and date etc. are not displayed. (l 29)

Use an SD card that can be used for motion picture recording. (l 22) When the unit stops while a usable SD card for recording motion pictures (l 22) is used, the data writing rate has deteriorated. We recommend formatting the SD card being used. (l 94)

If [AGS] is [ON], record in the normal horizontal position or

set [AGS] to [OFF]. (l 64)

If the unit is exposed to strong vibrations or shocks while recording on HDD, recording may stop to protect the HDD. If the unit is used in a place with loud sounds, the recording may stop due to sound vibrations. Recording data on an SD card is recommended in these places.

Many repeated recording and deletion of motion pictures may reduce the usable time for recording on a media you use. In that case, format the media.
