TOO BRIGHT
ERROR
This appears when the white balance is to be
adjusted (when the AUTO W/B BAL switch was
operated) or when the screen is excessively
bright.
Stop down the iris a little more, and adjust the
white balance. If the error display remains,
insert the electronic shutter or attach the ND
filter.
Error messages which appear during operation
TOO DARK ERROR This appears when the white balance is to be
adjusted (when the AUTO W/B BAL switch was
operated) or when the screen is excessively
dark.
Open the iris a little more, increase the gain (if
this is warranted by the subject brightness), and
adjust the white balance. If the error display
remains, direct some light onto the subject.
LENS UNIT ERROR This appears when the lens cable has been
disconnected or when the lens iris control circuit
has been damaged.
The cause is almost always a disconnected lens
cable. If the display appears even when the
cable is connected properly, consult with your
dealer.
SELECT SW ERROR This appears when the AUTO W/B BAL switch
was operated with the white balance selector
switch at a position other than MEMO.
Adjust the white balance (operate the AUTO
W/B BAL switch) with the white balance selector
switch at the MEMO position.
OUTPUT SW ERROR This appears when the AUTO W/B BAL switch
was operated with the OUTPUT switch at a
position other than CAM.
Adjust the white balance (operate the AUTO
W/B BAL switch) with the OUTPUT switch at the
CAM position.
BLACK BAL ERROR This points to a malfunction in the camera unit. Consult with your dealer.
SERVO This appears when an unrecorded part of a tape
is played back or at other times when the VTR
servo lock is disengaged.
It is normal for this display to appear with
unrecorded parts of tapes. If the display
appears during the playback of an obviously
recorded tape or during recording, this points to
a malfunction. Consult with your dealer.
HUMID This signifies that condensation has formed.

POWER OFF This is not an error message. It is a warning which indicates that the power will be turned off very
shortly.
WHITE BAL ERROR
TRY AGAIN
This appears when the white balance was not
attained properly due to some condition or
other.
If the TOOL BRIGHT ERROR, TOO DARK
ERROR or LENS UNIT ERROR message has
appeared, take the corresponding measure, and
then try adjusting the white balance again.
If the WHITE BAL ERROR TRY AGAIN
message has appeared but the TOOL BRIGHT
ERROR, TOO DARK ERROR or LENS UNIT
ERROR message has not appeared, proceed to
attain the white balance again. If the display still
appears even after two or three attempts,
consult with your dealer.
Remarks:
The above errors are detected when the white balance is adjusted (when the AUTO W/B BAL switch has been operated).
The LENS UNIT ERROR is also detected immediately after the power has been switched on.
