SYMPTOM
Cannot select serial port
JLIP device is not detected
Cannot control digital video camera using the controller
Cannot control recorder using the controller
TYPICAL SITUATION
v Sometimes the RS-232C port cannot be used because
the PC’s COM ports have all been assigned to internal modems, IrDA or other devices. To check port usage, right click on My Computer on the desktop, select Properties, click on the Device Manager tab, and look under the item Ports. If no ports are open, disable one of the modems, IrDA drivers or other devices to free up a COM port.
v It may not be possible to use the RS-232C depending
on the USB and digital still camera being used.
v The BIOS may need to be set depending on the PC
model in question.
v Check that the correct serial port number is set. v Check that the JLIP device is turned on. v Check that the correct connections for the JLIP device
have been made.
v Check that you have not mistaken the editing cable for
the JLIP cable used for connections.
v If two or more JLIP devices are used, check that the
JLIP ID numbers being used do not conflict with each other.
v Check that "Player" has been selected on the JLIP
Devices dialog box.
v Check that "Recorder" has been selected on the JLIP
Devices dialog box.
v Only video decks having JLIP terminals can be used. v Depending on the video deck’s specifications, it may
not be capable of some functions such as slow, search, frame advance, and reverse playback. Please refer to the instruction manual for the specifications of the video deck in question.
Cannot select P.AE/Effect or Fade/Wipe Effect
Auto Edit operation stops
v Some combinations of P.AE/Effect and Fade/Wipe
Effect cannot be selected at the same time. Select another type of P.AE/Effect or Fade/Wipe Effect.
v Fade/Wipe Effects that use video images cannot be set
for scene 00, the bottom of the scene, tape changing scenes or a scene before the tape change.
v Check that no other application software is running. v This type of symptom occurs when the correct data is
not being sent from the digital video camera due to damage to the tape being played.
v This type of symptom may arise when a tape recorded
in LP mode is played back using a different digital video camera.
v Check that the tape in the recorder has its erase
protection switch.

TROUBLESHOOTING (cont.)
SYMPTOM
The video deck does not function
Selected P.AE/Effect or Wipe/ Fade Effect does not function
Auto Edit function does not end
Edit point is displaced
TYPICAL SITUATION
v When the video deck is in Remote Pause mode or is
being controlled by remote control, be sure to put the video deck in Record Pause mode before starting Auto Edit.
v When the video deck is in Remote Pause mode or is
being controlled by remote control, check that "Use Edit Terminal" has been selected on the JLIP Devices dialog box.
v When the video deck is being controlled by the
remote control of the digital video camera, set the brand code of the remote control of the digital video camera, corresponding to the video deck being used.
v When the video deck is being controlled by JLIP,
check on the JLIP Devices dialog box that "Recorder" has been set and that "Use Edit Terminal" has not been set.
v Check that you have not mistaken the editing cable for
the JLIP cable used for connections.
v Some functions may not be available depending on
the video deck's specifications. Please refer to the instruction manual for the specifications of the video deck in question.
v Check that the Out point setting actually corresponds
to a counter value on the tape being used.
v If the displacement is always by the same amount:
Change the value of "Rec Pause Time Correction" found under the menu PreferencesOptions (See p. 52).
v If the displacement varies:
This may be due to a small mechanical displacement caused by imprecision in the operation of the video deck itself.
Video/audio from the digital video camera is not recorded
Unwanted items such as time, date and time code are displayed
Color of the display of the PC's monitor is strange
The actual appearance of the application software may differ from that illustrated in this manual, depending on the operating environment of your PC.
v Check the A/V cord connections. v Set the video deck for external input. v First check that the video and audio from the digital
camera appears on the TV connected to the video deck, and then execute Auto Edit.
v Clear the display by changing the settings of the digital
video camera.
v The color cannot be displayed properly on monitors
having less than 256 colors capability.
