Error02-403 Sony BetaSP

[Tim Kolb]

Excess tape slack is an effect…not a cause. There are several armatures that could be candidates for damage or lack of lubrication, reel motors that could be getting tired…or just untimely instructions from malfunctioning controller modules…or perhaps the controller modules are getting bad info from dirty, or malfunctioning sensors.

Bottom line…the deck needs to be serviced by a technician. It’s almost impossible to figure out what you even might need to do for someone who can’t see the deck or what actually happens when the tape threads…

I’ve recently started getting the same error message mostly with 3M tapes, is it possible that the tapes themselves are defective or should I go ahead and get the deck serviced. Primarily our producers use Sony tapes.

Thanks!
