This is a common error with the X-mount system. Does switching off and on actually help? This error occurs when the lens is not properly recognized by the camera. Some considerations:

- never change lenses with the camera turned on - always switch it off first before de-mounting/mounting another lens

- there could be bad contact between the lens and camera (connectors in the mount). This can be because of misalignment or even structural damage due to an earlier bump. The X-mount is quite susceptible for that, hence the strengthened mount in the X-H1, which was by the way never followed up in the X-T3 and T4.

- the lens can be damaged internally - this is very likely when the error persists after switching off and on the camera.
