14.2.2 Log Window Error Code Descriptions
The following table provides a list of error codes and descriptions that may be observed in the
Log Window of the VDR Playback application:
Error Code Alarm Message Binary Bit Position
99$0 Status Clear 0000000000
99$1 Storage Error 0000000001
99$2 Video Error 0000000010
99$4 Audio Error 0000000100
99$8 NMEA Error 0000001000
99$16 Power Error 0000010000
99$32 Microphone Error 0000100000
99$64 FRM Error 0001000000
99$128 Lyngso Error 0010000000
99$256 Power Comms Error 0100000000
99$512 Remote Error 1000000000
99$1024 GPS Error 10000000000
Table 14-2 - Error Codes - Playback Log Window
In the event of simultaneous errors, it will be necessary to convert the displayed error code to its
binary counterpart. A multiple error will display multiple 1-bits in the binary string, which must then
be interpreted.
Example:
The error code 99$17 converts to a binary string of 0000010001, representing a simultaneous
Storage and Power error.
14.2.3 NMEA Error Code Descriptions
The error codes in the NMEA data from the NMEA Module identify the NMEA module and its port
that has the error. These errors occur when either the data format or speed does not match the
received data, or the received data is corrupted.
The error message is in the format NerrorXX, where N is the NMEA ID and XX is the code as
listed below.
Code 8-Port NMEA Module 4-Port NMEA Module
A 232/422 Output 232/422 Output
B 422 Input 422 Input
C Input 1 Input 1
D Input 2 Input 2
E Input 3 Input 3
F Slave/Master Link Input 4
SA Output to Slave NA
SB Input Port 4 NA
SC Input Port 5 NA
SD Input Port 6 NA
SE Input Port 7 NA
SF Input Port 8 NA
Table 14-3 - NMEA Error Codes
Example:
Error message 1errorSD on an 8 Channel NMEA Module would indicate that the data on input
Port 6 has the wrong data format or speed or is corrupt.
