No meter indication

Analog and/or digital volume (4.1.1,

“Signal volume”) is set too low. The sig-

input

input source (4.1, “Input selection”).

selected, but the source is not con-

 

 

nected or is not switched on.

Word CLK Err

An external word sync clock has been

 

 

 

 

selected (see 2.4.1, “Word sync con-

 

 

nections”), but no word clock source is

 

 

available or the word clock is ±7% or

 

 

more away from the base frequency of

 

 

44.1 kHz.

 

 

 

Not FS 44.1k!

You are trying to do digital direct record-

 

 

 

 

ing from a source which has not been

 

 

recorded at 44.1 kHz (4.3.3, “Digital

 

 

direct”).

 

 

 

No Inc Mode

being made to rehearse track split

 

 

times.

 

 

 

Disc Error

The disc is bad. If it is a CD-RW disc,

 

 

 

 

you may refresh it (5.2.3, “Refreshing a

 

 

disc”), otherwise replace the disc.

 

 

 

Erase Error!

An error has occurred while trying to

 

 

 

 

erase the disc.

 

 

 

The display suddenly

Writing

Full!! (4.2.5, “Full disc”) or an

 

 

 

 

attempt has been mode to write more

 

 

than 99 tracks.

 

 

 

Symptom

Possible cause and remedy

 

 

Rec Error

General recording error. This may be

 

 

caused by vibration or a shock during

 

recording, for example, or may be the

 

result of a bad disc. Try recording again

 

with the same disc. If the message

 

appears again, try a different disc.

 

 

No OPC Area!

Appears only with CD-R discs. The

 

 

OPC area is full, and no further record-

 

ing is possible on this disc. Finalize the

 

disc.

 

 

OPC Area CLR

Seen when a CD-RW disc OPC area is

 

 

full, and the CD-RW2000 automatically

 

cleans up the OPC area for further

 

recording.

 

 

Need Repair!

Current disc needs repair. Refresh the

 

CD-RW disc using the procedure

 

described in 5.2.3, “Refreshing a disc”.

 

 

System Err!

System error.

 

 

Tray Error!

Error in the tray mechanism.

 

 

Drive Error!

Error in the drive mechanism.
