camera using the controller

TYPICAL SITUATION
ⅷ 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.
ⅷ It may not be possible to use the RS-232C depending
on the USB and digital still camera being used.
ⅷ The BIOS may need to be set depending on the PC
model in question.
ⅷ Check that the correct serial port number is set.
ⅷ Check that the JLIP device is turned on.
ⅷ Check that the correct connections for the JLIP device
have been made.
ⅷ Check that you have not mistaken the editing cable for
the JLIP cable used for connections.
ⅷ If two or more JLIP devices are used, check that the
JLIP ID numbers being used do not conflict with each
other.
ⅷ Check that "Player" has been selected on the JLIP
Devices dialog box.
ⅷ Check that "Recorder" has been selected on the JLIP
Devices dialog box.
ⅷ Only video decks having JLIP terminals can be used.
ⅷ 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.
ⅷ 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.
ⅷ 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.
ⅷ Check that no other application software is running.
ⅷ 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.
ⅷ This type of symptom may arise when a tape recorded
in LP mode is played back using a different digital
video camera.
ⅷ Check that the tape in the recorder has its erase
protection switch.
