Getting a reading "Protect" when

Did you check in your manual if there is a function to "write protect" your camera against accidental operation? Mine doesn't have this option but some other device MIGHT have it.
If you don't have the manual , download it from here:

Excuse me if I can't give you the proper answer but I don't have the time to read the manual. If you CAN'T find a write protect functon, feel free to comment

You have something Mis-Wired.... AUX is for the BATTERY CHARGING. You may have a GROUND ISSUE ALSO

It means the audio output stage in the receiver is getting to hot and goes into auto shutdown to protect the circuits, check all speaker wires for shorts, if by chance you added extra speakers recently remove them. If there is no change you will need a professional to assess the receiver.

Please, read this maintenance document first and try again.

Generally speaking, an amp attempts to protect itself from heat, shorts, overloads and operator exuberance by refusing to turn on or stay on; or it may turn on but produce no audio to the speakers.

Overloads can be from excessive periods of high output or marginally low impedance loading by the speakers; and shorts would be wiring issues or a speaker blowing up.

You should be able to feel if it's hot. WHY is it overheating? Make sure it has sufficient ventilation on all sides and that vent holes are not blocked by dust balls. Ensure the fan (if equipped) is running as designed (some only operate on demand). Clean dust and debris from it.

If the amp comes back on after cooling, you're lucky. They only have so many self-protection cycles in their lives so continuously resetting or cycling their power without addressing the cause can do more harm than good.

If it protects immediately on a cool power up you should disconnect the speaker connections and try it 'nekkid'. If it comes up then diagnose which lead(s) are shorted. If it does not come up the problem is internal and should be left to an experienced and competent hands-on tech.

There is nothing to worry about trying it..,. if you dont' get rid of that message, you can plug that board back in.

Find the flash memory card that plugs into your camera and stores the pictures. It's usually behind a door or flap on the side or bottom. Remove the card, usually accomplished by pushing it in and then it should spring outward slightly -- at least enough for you to pull it out the rest of the way. Check the card for a tiny sliding tab on the side and move it to the opposite end of its travel. See this wikipedia article for pictures and more info about write-protection.

The "protect" function is shutting the syetm down to protect the electronic components inside it. Usually caused by a lackof earth in the plug or extension lead. Plug it straight into the wall and check it, if it is still the same then it could be a speaker wiring short circuit, disconnect the speakers and plug it in on its own and test it
