Service Manual

1.4 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. LCD display

The mechanism is locked at the mechanism loading end, because the encoder tated in the loading direction for 4 seconds or position is skipped during mechanism mode shift. more. This error is defined as [E01]. 3. No power is supplied to the loading MDA. In the case the encoder position is not shifted to 1. The mechanism is locked during mode shift. the next point though the loading motor has ro- 2. The mechanism is locked at the mechanism loading end, because the encoder tated in the unloading direction for 4 seconds or position is skipped during mechanism mode shift. more. This error is defined as [E02]. In the case no REEL FG is produced for 4 seconds or more in the capstan rotation mode after loading was complete, the mechanism mode is shifted to STOP with the pinch roller set off. This error is defined as [E03]. However, no REEL EMG is detected in the SLW/ STILL mode. 1. The idler gear does not engage with the reel disk well. 2. Though the idler gear and reel disk are engaged with each other, the tape is not wound because of overload to the mechanism. 3. No FG pulse is output from the reel sensor. 4. No power is supplied to the reel sensor. 5. Tape transport operation takes place with a cassette having no tape inside. 6. The tape slackens and no pulse is produced until the slack is taken up and the tape comes into the normal status.

DRUM FG

In the case there is no DRUM FG input in the 1. The drum cannot be started or drum rotation is stopped because tape transport drum rotation mode for 4 seconds or more. load is too high. This error is defined as [E04], and the mecha1) Tape tension is extremely high. nism mode is shifted to STOP with the pinch roller 2) The tape is damaged or soiled with grease, etc. set off. 2. The DRUM FG signal is not received by the syscon CPU. 1) Disconnection in the middle of the signal line. 2) Failure of the DRUM FG pulse generator (hall element). 3. No drum control voltage is supplied to the MDA. 4. No power is supplied to the DRUM MDA. � In the case no CAPSTAN FG is produced in the capstan rotation mode for 2 seconds or more. This error is defined as [E06], and the mechanism mode is shifted to STOP with the pinch roller set off. However, no CAPSTAN EMG is detected in the STILL/FF/ REW mode. � 1. The CAPSTAN FG signal is not received by the syscon CPU. 1) Disconnection in the middle of the signal line. 2) Failure of the CAPSTAN FG pulse generator (MR element). 2. No capstan control voltage is supplied to the MDA. 3. No power is supplied to the CAPSTAN MDA. 4. The capstan cannot be started or capstan rotation is stopped because tape transport load is too high. 1) Tape tension is extremely high. (Mechanical locking) 2) The tape is damaged or soiled with grease, etc. (Tape tangling occurs, etc.)
