7.2 Maintenance

Regular maintenance helps to keep your equipment in good condition and prevents

future problems. Check the items shown in the table below.

7.3 Simple Troubleshooting

The table below provides possible problems and the means with which to restore nor-

mal operation. If normal operation cannot be restored, do not attempt to check inside

the equipment. Any servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.

Item Check point Remedy/Remarks

Antenna Check for physical damage and corrosion. Replace damaged parts.

Wire

antenna

Check that the antenna is properly spanned

and separated sufficiently from metallic

structures.

If necessary, re-span antenna.

Insulators

for antenna

Check for salt water deposits on insulators.

Check that connection at the lead-in insula-

tor is tight and rust-free.

Replace damaged insulator(s). Remove

salt water deposits. Clean with fresh

water, then dry. Remove rust, then

tighten bolts and lock nuts. Cover me-

tallic surface with sealing compound.

Transceiver

unit

• Check ground connection.

• Check connection at signal cable, coaxial

cable, control cable, power cable and ex-

ternal equipment (including navigator).

• Confirm that there are no objects on the

top of the transceiver unit.

• Remove dust from transceiver unit with

soft cloth.

Note: Do not use chemical cleaners to

clean the transceiver unit; they can remove

paint or markings and deform the equip-

ment.

• Tighten the loosened connections;

remove foreign materials from con-

nectors.

• Remove any objects.

• Wipe the LCD 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 dis-

solve the dirt or salt. Change paper

frequently so the salt or dirt does not

scratch the LCD.

Power

supply

Check that the supply voltage at transmis-

sion is within the rated range (21.6 to 31.2

VDC at the power connector).

If not within the range, check power

source. Low voltage may cause erratic

operation.

Power fuse Check if a power fuse (7A) has blown. If the fuse has blown, find out the cause

before replacing it (Type: FGBO 125V

7A PBF). If it blows after replacement,

contact your dealer.

Problem Probable cause Remedy

Power cannot be

turned on.

• Mains switchboard is off.

• (DC) voltage is too high or too low.

• Battery has discharged, or poor

contact at terminals.

• Turn on the mains switchboard.

• Check supply voltage.

• Recharge the battery and tighten

the battery terminals.

Display indications

do not appear.

Display brilliance is too low. Press the BRILL key to adjust the

display brilliance.

Power is on but no

sound from the main

speaker.

Main speaker is off. Press the key to turn on the main

speaker.

Output power re-

duced to LOW

Power is automatically reduced to pro-

tect against overheating due to contin-

uous transmission.

Wait until the unit cools.

APPENDIX 5 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 this manual. Major modules can be located on the parts location

photos on pages AP-21 thru AP-22.
