4 Troubleshooting

· What to prepare

− A PC that has the exclusive application software

(Panasonic Media Manager V2) installed. Be sure to check for normal operation of the PC. If other application software is installed in the PC, be sure that this software does not affect theoperation of the Panasonic Media Manager V2.

− When a user’s product is taken in for service, be sure to obtain not only the player but also the user’s SD card and USB reader/writer. Also, try to obtain as much information as possible on the operational environmentof the user’s PC.

<PC’s operational environment> Product name, model number, name of CPU, operation

clock, RAM capacity, HD capacity, names of installed software, use of USB hub, and any equipment connected with USB simultaneously.

· Checkpoints before servicing

− Is the write-protect switch on the SD card set to LOCK?

− Does the battery have enough capacity?

Be aware that manganese batteries do not have sufficient capacitor; their use can result in improper operation.

· Precautions

− A PC sometimes does not recognize the USB

reader/writer depending on its conditions (such as competing with the installed software). Therefore, always keep the PC in good condition so that any adaptor can be connected properly.

− There is a possibility that not only the hardware but also software (PC’s application software) may be the source of the problem. Therefore, be sure to inspect all potential sources carefully and thoroughly before specifying any causes.

− Check the connection part of the card to see whether it is dirty or has any foreign objects attached to it before specifying the cause of the problem.

− If the card is formatted, the written data (signals) will be erased and cannot be recovered.

− When you format the card, be sure to format it with the format function of Panasonic Media Manager V2. If the card is formatted with Windows or MS-DOS, the card will not operate with Panasonic Media Manager V2.
