14-1 Troubleshooting (Cont'd)
In the case of troubles occurring during operation of the GY-DV500, it performs a self-test to identify the cause and displays the
result in the form of an error code. The error code consists of the "main code" which indicates its contents and the "sub-code" which
indicates the details. Depending on the status of the GY-DV500 at this time, indications may also appear on the LCD display, the
WARNING indicator may activate and the alarm tone may be generated.
In the viewfinder, the "VTR WARNING (DEW)" indication appears when condensation is detected, and the "VTR WARNING (STOP)",
"VTR WARNING (HARD)" or "VTR WARNING (REW)" indication appears depending on the contents of the error code when some
of the other error codes are displayed.
