Voltage/error indication
The current voltage is displayed whenever the camera
head’s power supply voltage dips below 11.0 V DC.
However, you can also display the current voltage at
any time by pressing and holding the MENU/STATUS
switch in the upward position (the display is shown for
as long as you hold the switch upward).
An error message is displayed when an abnormality
has been detected by the auto diagnostic function
(page 51). If there is a voltage drop below 11.0 V DC
and an error has been detected, the low voltage
indication alternates at one-second intervals with the
error indication.
If an error message appears, contact your Sony dealer.
