1 Tally indicator
Setting the TALLY switch to HIGH or LOW activates this indicator. The
indicator lights during recording on the VTR. It also provides the same
information as the REC indicator in the viewfinder: it comes on during
recording and flashes to indicate a problem.
2 DISPLAY switch
This switches the indications on the viewfinder screen on or off.
ON: The indications appear on the viewfinder screen.
OFF: The indications do not appear on the viewfinder screen.
3 TALLY switch
This switch controls the tally indicator, setting its brightness (HIGH or
LOW) or turning it off.
4 DIAG (diagnosis) button
Pressing this button when the VTR is stopped switches the camcorder to
the self-diagnosis mode. In the self-diagnosis mode, it is possible to
carry out a display panel test, a VTR test, or a camera test, and to display
the test result.
To exit from the self-diagnosis mode, press this button once more.
Refer to the Maintenance Manual for more information.
Caution
Do not press the DIAG button when a remote control unit is connected to
the REMOTE connector (6-pin). Pressing the button with a remote
control unit connected will disturb both the self-diagnostic and remote
control functions. The only remedy for this disturbance is to disconnect
the remote control unit and turn off the camcorder POWER switch.
