Sony PCM-D1 Microcassette Recorder User Manual


 
Troubleshooting
If you experience trouble with your recorder, try the following solutions.
1
Turn off the recorder completely by removing the batteries and
the AC power adaptor, and then turn it on again. Or use the recorder
to initialize the built-in memory or the “Memory Stick PRO (High Speed).”
(Note that initializing will delete all data in the memory.)
2
Read through the symptoms and solutions on pages 41 to 43 and
messages on pages 44 and 45 to check your recorder.
3
If the problem persists, consult with qualified Sony personnel
(see the warranty for contact information).
Symptom Cause/Solution
The recorder does not
operate.
The batteries have been inserted with incorrectly. Reinsert them correctly
(page 19).
The batteries are exhausted. Charge them or replace them with new ones
(page 19).
The buttons are locked with the HOLD switch. Set the HOLD switch to the
“OFF” position (page 17).
The POWER switch is set to the “OFF” position. Set it to the “ON” position.
You cannot start
recording.
The MIC/LINE IN switch is in the wrong position. Set it to the “MIC”
position when using the built-in microphones or an external microphone to
input audio for recording. Set it to the “LINE IN” position when external
equipment is connected for recording (page 15).
The memory is full, or the maximum number of tracks (page 48) have
already been recorded. Delete some of the tracks (page 36) or store the
tracks to the hard disk of your computer (page 30), and then delete them
from the recorder. You can also use a “Memory Stick PRO (High Speed)”
with sufficient capacity (page 39).
99 tracks have already been recorded in the selected folder. Select another
folder (page 37) or delete some of the tracks (page 36).
The write-protect switch on the inserted “Memory Stick PRO (High Speed)”
is set to “LOCK.” Release the lock.
The ACCESS indicator,
peak level lamps, or
REC /
PLAY /
PAUSE indicators do
not light/flash.
The “LED” item in the menu is set to “OFF.” Display the menu and set it to
“ON” (page 36).
