NOTICE
Do not apply paint, anti-corrosive sealant
or contact spray to coating or plastic
parts of the equipment.
Those items contain organic solvents that
can damage coating and plastic parts,
especially plastic connectors.
Maintenance
Regular maintenance is necessary to maintain performance. A monthly maintenance
program should be established and should at least include the items listed in the table
below.

Check cabling for damage. Replace if damaged.
Check the ground terminal on the monitor unit and transponder unit
for rust. Clean if necessary.
Check that the ground wire on the monitor unit and transponder unit
is firmly fastened.
Dirt and dust should be removed from units with a soft, dry cloth. For
the LCD, wipe it carefully to prevent scratching, using tissue paper
and an LCD cleaner. To remove dirt or salt deposits, use an LCD
cleaner, wiping slowly with tissue paper so as to dissolve the dirt or
salt. Change paper frequently so the salt or dirt will not scratch the

APPENDIX 2 ALERTS, IDS, MEANINGS AND MEASURES
The FA-170 displays alerts at the bottom of the screen, as they occur. You can see all alerts,
current and past, from the [ALERT LIST] screen. The ID for each alert is different, depending on
whether there is a BAM (Bridge Alert Management) system or an AMS (Alert Management
System) connected.
The table on the following page shows the alert ID, displayed message, meaning and measures
for each alert.
Note 1: Detection of RX malfunction
1) Detection of TDMA RX malfunction
Frequency error
PLL chip on TRX-PWR board generates lock or unlock signal for synthesizer.
MPU watches and sets status flag which reflects data of ALR sentence.
ID 003 for RX1, ID 004 for RX2
2) Detection of DSC RX malfunction
General error
A DSC error will occur when the FA-170 cannot detect a correct signal strength from
the DSC receive circuit 120 seconds.
Note 2: Detection of TX malfunction
MPU detects TX malfunction (ID:001) in the following cases:
1) The signal indicated "LOCK" is not received from the PLL chip on the TRX-PWR
board.
2) The voltage of monitoring signal on the TRX-PWR board is abnormal. The reason
for TRX-PWR board malfunction can be a hardware problem or software problem
causing a continuous transmission that exceeds 250 msec.
Note: The hardware stops automatically because of the continuous transmission.
3) Invalid MMSI
4) An excessively high VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Ratio) for the AIS antenna detected.
Each active alert entry is accompanied by an alert icon, indicating the state of the alert. The alert
icons displayed on the FA-170 are listed in the table below with a brief description.

Note 2: Alert ID 600950 is only output when a BAM (Bridge Alert Management) is connected and
is given “Caution” priority level.
Note 3: Where the [ALERT MODE] is set to [Legacy Ed.1/Ed.2], alert priority level for all alerts is
fixed at “Warning”.
Note 4: Where the [ALERT MODE] is set to [ALERT IF1] or [ALERT IF2] the alerts shown with “*1”
in the table above are assigned “Caution” priority level.

APPENDIX 3 PARTS LIST/LOCATION
Parts List
This equipment contains complex modules in which fault diagnosis and repair down to component
level are not practical (IMO A.694(17)/8.3.1). Only some discrete components are used. FURUNO
Electric Co., Ltd. believes identifying these components is of no value for shipboard maintenance;
therefore, they are not listed in the manual. Major modules can be located on the parts location
