Error Messages and Warning Messages

Error Messages

When the unit ceases to operate correctly due to malfunction or an internal system error, the alarm will sound and an error message will be displayed on the display.

Only one message will be displayed even when multiple errors occur, but the error log menu keeps a history of the errors.

For more information about error messages, refer to the Maintenance Manual.

Protection Mode

To protect the tape and the mechanical parts of the VTR, the servo control system automatically stops tape transport and the drum motor and enters protection mode when an error occurs.

Cassettes may not be inserted or ejected during protection mode.

Note

After the error occurs, eliminate the cause of the error and turn the unit back on. If the error message appears again when the unit is turned on, contact your Sony representative.

For more information about eliminating errors, refer to the supplied Maintenance Manual.

When a cassette is stuck in the unit because of protection mode, make sure to disconnect the power before removing the cassette manually.

For information about removing cassettes manually, refer to the supplied Maintenance Manual.
