How to reset the error state?
I copied the my recorded tape to PC via the i-Link. Suddenly, the camcorder stopped to respond. After a while it said "In Safeguard Mode" followed by "Remove and reattach battery" I put the function switch to OFF but it did not turn off. I removed the battery and re-inserted it after 30 s. Then I ejeted the tape and everything seemed be OK
But then, when I wanted to insert another tape, I noticed that the tape basket cannot be closed. It unloads, and when I want to close the basket with the tape, it will not lock closed.
When I removed the tape again, and turned the power off and on again, it tried to load the empty and opened basket on its own. when I close the basket in this position it locks. When I open the tape cover, it won't eject. But when I remove the power it tries to eject again.
It seems that the eject logic is turned upside down. It thinks that its inside when ejetced and it thinks that loaded when ejected.
Any idea how to reset the logic?
