Is there a list online of EX1 error codes?

Is there a list online of EX1 error codes?

Cheers, Duncan.

Edit: specifically I'm looking for E-15030 and E-17014

If you are lucky you have loose ribbon cables from vibration (unlikely). I haven't looked at the schematic, but that DPR sounds like a board that you don't want problems with.... does lots of stuff.

This is what the 15030 error refers to... the DPR-289 Board:

DPR-289A board
Output from the baseband processing IC (IC400) is input
into the MPEG encoder/decoder (IC901).
The MPEG encoder/decoder (IC901) is the single-chip
MPEG Codec IC that encodes and decodes both the highquality
HD video signal and audio signal in real-time. It
has various interfaces with signals such as MPEG video,
video input/output, MPEG audio, audio input/output, bit
stream input/output, and interface with the host.
IC901 output is then input into LSI (IC900) for AVIT
signal processing.
LSI (IC900) for AVIT signal processing contains the builtin
CPU and has interfaces for DDR2 SDRAM memory
(IC1000, IC1001), PCI bus, PCI-Express bus, I/O for
IC901, and serial communication with system controller
(IC1600).
IC900 is also connected to the NOR-type Flash ROM
(IC1100) to read the CPU program in the IC900 during
initial startup.
LSI (IC900) for AVIT signal processing is controlled by
the system controller (IC1600), in the same way as other
main devices, and provides the following types of functions:
video/audio stream control, access to the SxS
memory card, mass storage operations when connected to
USB and HDV device controls when connected to i-LINK.

Appears to be the Brain, Heart and lungs of the camera. See attached JPEG. Again this is from an EX-3, but it is not uncommon for cameras to share main components and then they take out features on different models.

Thanks for your help George,

I've only had these errors once each, at different times.

The first last back in Feb, the second last week. Both times I power cycled the camera and carried on working. I was expecting them to be related to using SDHC media, but perhaps the camera should go back to Sony for a checkup.

Cheers, Duncan.
