Other problems
Symptom Cause/Remedy
The MCS1 does not start.
Batteries are used up very
quickly.
The MCS1 is on, but the unit
does not operate.
A CD-R to which data was
copied cannot be read on a
computer.
c The operation mode of the MCS1 may have been changed. Switch
the MCS1 to video output mode manually by pressing the MODE
button (page 28).
c Disconnect any other storage media connected to the MCS1, and then
insert the media containing the digital images that you want to
display on your television screen. You can also change the operation
mode of the MCS1 manually by pressing the MODE button (page
28).
c Make sure that the video output cable is securely connected.
c If the image is not in JPEG format (such as TIFF or other format
files), the MCS1 cannot display it on the television.
c Make sure that the television or video to which the MCS1 is
connected is displaying the correct input channel.
c The video output signal may not be set to the correct format (NTSC/
PAL). Select the correct setting for your country or region (page 27).
c Verify whether the AC adapter or battery pack is connected correctly.
c When using the battery pack, verify that the batteries are inserted
with correct orientation.
c When using the battery pack, the batteries may be exhausted. Replace
all batteries with fresh ones.
c If the MCS1 is being used at very low ambient temperature, the
battery life may be much shorter. In such a case, using the AC
adapter is recommended.
c Condensation may have occurred inside the MCS1. Remove any
CD-R and “Memory Stick” media and disconnect all other
equipment, then wait about one hour.
c Some computers and CD-ROM drives may not be able to read discs
that have not been finalized. Perform the finalization procedure.
c If you are unable to read 8 cm discs written with the MCS1, your
computer and/or CD-ROM drive may be damaged. Try reading the
disc with another computer and/or drive.
