Troubleshooting
Before requesting service, check the points listed below. If the problem persists,
contact your local Panasonic dealer.
Starting up
• Check whether power cable is connected
correctly.
• Check whether a timer device is inserted in the
power supply for the recorder. Refer to the
installation manual and connect the timer
equipment correctly.
• Check the time lag setting between SIGNAL off
and recorder power-off. For details, see the
documentation of the Toughbook-Arbitrator
Front End Software.
Operation
• Are you using the supplied key?
• Is the cover closed? The key can only be
removed if the cover is closed.
• Is a P2 card inserted correctly in a P2 card slot?
• Is the EJECT button folded to the right?
• Is the supplied LAN cable (crossing type) being
used? Connect the recorder and the computer
on which the Toughbook-Arbitrator Front End
Software is running directly, not via a hub.
• Are the network settings on the computer
correct? Subnet mask of the recorder and that
of the computer must be the same. For details,
see the documentation of the Toughbook-
Arbitrator Front End Software.
• When you press and hold the REC button and
STOP button on the recorder simultaneously for
about 10 seconds, the recorder will restart.
Reset the computer after this.
• To reset the unit, hold down the REC button and STOP
button on the front panel together for about 10 seconds.
All LEDs go out for 1 - 2 seconds and then light
up for 1 - 2 seconds. Reset is now possible.
• If you remove the P2 card during P2 card
access (BUSY LED is lit), the P2 card slot may
become inoperative. In such a case, the
recorder automatically restarts itself, and the
card slot will become operative again.
