When problems occur while the unit is operating, the self-diagnosis
function starts working, and displays on the viewfinder or LCD
screen what to do. This function consists of two display; self-
diagnosis display and service mode display.
Details of the self-diagnosis functions are provided in the Instruction
manual.

When problems occur while the unit is operating, the counter of the
viewfinder or LCD screen shows a 4-digit display consisting of an
alphabet and numbers, which blinks at 3.2 Hz. This 5-character
display indicates the “repaired by:”, “block” in which the problem
occurred, and “detailed code” of the problem.

Correction

Use the InfoLITHIUM battery.

Remove the power source. Reconnect it again and operate your
camcorder again

Remove the power source. Reconnect it again and operate your
camcorder again

Remove the disc, and insert it again after one hour.

Remove the power source. Reconnect it again and operate your
camcorder again

Make EEPROM data correct value. (Note 1)

Inspect or replacement of the hand disc drive

Inspect or replacement of the codec IC (IC2301on the VC-449
board) peripheral circuits

Inspect or replacement of the Audio Codec IC (IC2301 on the
VC-449 board) peripheral circuits

Inspect the lens block focus MR sensor (pin ql, wa of CN1701
on the VC-449 board) when focusing is performed when the
focus buttons of the touch panel are pressed in the focus manual
mode, and the focus motor drive circuit (IC1701 on the VC-449
board) when the focusing is not performed.

Inspect the lens block zoom MR sensor (pin ws, wf of CN1701
on the VC-449 board) when zooming is performed when the
zoom lever is operated, and the zoom motor drive circuit
(IC1701 on the VC-449 board) when zooming is not performed.

Check whether the flexible board of the lens is broken, and
check whether it is inserted imperfectly. If there is no problem in
the  flexible board, inspect the focus/zoom motor drive circuit
(IC1701 on the VC-449 board).

Inspect PITCH angular velocity sensors (SE7104 on the IR-057
board) peripheral circuits.

Inspect YAW angular velocity sensors (SE7103 on the IR-057
board) peripheral circuits.

Checking of flash unit or replacement of flash unit. (Note 2)

Inspect the flash memory (IC2401 on the VC-449 board). (Note 1)

Inspect the EEPROM (IC2602 on the VC-449 board). (Note 1)

Note 1: Refer to “ 12-2. Record of Self-diagnosis check” of “2-5. SERVICE MODE”, ADJ (9-876-940-51).
Note 2: After repair, be sure to perform “1-4. PROCESS AFTER FIXING FLASH ERROR”.

DCR-SR90E/SR100/SR100E_L2

When “FLASH error” (Self-diagnosis Code E:91:**) occurs, to prevent any abnormal situation caused by high voltage, setting of the flash is
changed automatically to disabling charge and flash setting.
After fixing, this setting needs to be deactivated. Connect the adjustment remote commander and perform the following process.

Check the data changes to “01”.

When you replace to the repairing board, the written data of repairing board also might be changed to original setting.
When the data has changed because of board replaceing etc, check the data setting (Exif Model Data) is right. If not, rewrite to the right value.

Writing Method:
1) Select page: 0, address: 01, and set data: 01.
2) Select page: A, address: B6 to B9, and set the Exif Model Data.

Note: To write in the non-volatile memory (EEPROM), press the PAUSE (Write) button each time to set the data.

3) Select page: 0, address: 01, and set data: 00.

これを避けるため，下記の方法を用いてください。

方法：
DC入力端子を使用する。（ACアダプタ（AC-L200など）を使用する。）
