Troubleshooting
If you encounter a problem using this adapter, use the following checklist to find a solution. For any problems with the transmitter or receiver, refer to the operating instructions of the respective device. If the problem persists, consult your Sony dealer.
| Symptom Meanings | Remedy | |
| The DWR-S01D or the WRR-855 does not turn on. | The DWR-S01D or the WRR-855 is not correctly inserted into the slot of the camcorder or this adapter. | Insert the DWR-S01D or the WRR-855 until it is firmly and completely in, and then secure it with the mounting screws. |
| There is noise in the analog signal output from the OUTPUT2 connector when the adapter is connected to the device that accepts the analog signal only. | The ANALOG AES/EBU selector is set to AES/EBU. | Set the ANALOG AES/EBU selector to ANALOG. |
| No signal is output from the OUTPUT2 connector when the adapter is connected to the device that accepts the analog signal only. | The tuner 2 of the DWR-S01D is not turned on. | Turn on the tuner 2 of the DWR-S01D. |
| The WRR-855 is attached to the adapter. | The WRR-855 is a single-channel receiver. Thus, there is no signal output from the OUTPUT2 connector. | |
| No signal is output from the OUTPUT2 connector when the adapter is connected to the device that accepts the digital signal. | The ANALOG AES/EBU selector is set to ANALOG. | Set the ANALOG AES/EBU selector to AES/EBU. |
| There is noise in the audio output from the digital device that is connected to the adapter. | The DWR-S01D inserted in the adapter and the digital device that is connected to the adapter are not in synchronization. | If the connected device is not compatible with the asynchronous input (i.e., the sampling rate converter is not equipped), use the word clock signal to synchronize the device. |
| The WORD SYNC connector is not 75-ohm terminated. | When the DWR-S01D that is inserted in the adapter is the end device or when the master word clock signal is input to this adapter only, add the 75-ohm termination to the WORD SYNC connector by using the UTILITY menu of the DWR-S01D. | |
| There is no audio output to the PHONES connector. | The monitor level control is turned down. | Adjust the monitor level by using the monitor level control of the adapter. |
| The tuner that is currently turned off is selected by the monitor output selector. | Check the POWER switch for the corresponding tuner of the DWR-S01D. | |
| The monitor output selector is set to 2 when the WRR-855 is attached to the adapter. | The WRR-855 is a single-channel receiver. Thus, no audio is output when the monitor output selector is set to 2. | |
| When the monitor output selector is set to 1, audio from the tuner 2 is mixed with the audio from the tuner 1. | “RX1+2” is selected on the ANALOG OUTPUT1 function of the DWR-S01D. | On the DWR-S01D, select “RX1” on the ANALOG OUTPU1 function of the UTILITY menu.When “RX1+2” is selected, audio from the tuner 1 and 2 are mixed regardless of the monitor output selection. |
