About Error Messages

When the system stops operating incorrectly because of an
internal error, a warning tone sounds and a popup window
appears in the display of the control panel with an error
message.
Only one message is displayed at one time, even if
multiple errors occur. But the number of current errors
appears at the bottom of the popup window.
Example:

When an error message appears
Eliminate the cause of the error, and power the system off
and on again. If the same error message appears again
when the system is powered on, contact a Sony service
representative.
To close the error message popup window
Press the HOME button or the BACK button on the control
panel.
If you press the HOME button, an error code appears in the

display (see page 15).

If you press the BACK button, the same error code appears
in the operation status and warnings section of the display
when you move back as far as the HOME screen.
The error code remains visible until the cause of the error
is eliminated.
Tape protection mode
To protect the tape and the mechanical parts of the SRW-
1, the servo control system automatically stops tape
transport and the drum motor and enters tape protection
mode when an error occurs.
Cassettes may not be inserted or ejected while the SRW-1
is in tape protection mode.
Note
If a cassette is stuck in the SRW-1 because of tape
protection mode, remove the tape manually, making sure
to power the system off before doing so.
See "To remove a cassette with the system powered off"
(page 39) for more information about how to remove a
cassette manually.
