3-13. MAINTENANCE, TROUBLE-SHOOTING3.1 MaintenanceRegular 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.Item Check pointConnectors Check that all connectors on the rear panel of the transponder unit and monitor unit are firmly connected.Cabling Check cabling for damage. Replace if damaged.Ground terminal Check the ground terminal on the monitor unit and transponder unit for rust. Clean if necessary.Ground wire Check that the ground wire on the monitor unit and transponder unit is firmly fastened.Monitor unit, Transponder unit.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 LCD. Do not use solvents such as thinner, acetone or benzene for cleaning any unit; they can remove paint and marks and deform the equipment.WARNINGWARNINGELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARDDo not open the equipment.Only qualified personnelshould work inside theequipment.NOTICEDo not apply paint, anti-corrosive sealantor 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.
3.  MAINTENANCE, TROUBLESHOOTING3-23.2 Replacement of FuseThe transponder unit contains a 8A fuse which protects the equipment from overvolt-age, reverse polarity and equipment fault. If the power cannot be turned on, the fuse may be blown.

AP-7APPENDIX 2 ALERTS, IDS, MEAN-INGS AND MEASURESThe 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 malfunctionNote 2: Detection of TX malfunctionMPU detects TX malfunction (ID:001) in the following cases: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.1) Detection of TDMA RX malfunctionFrequency errorPLL 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 RX22) Detection of DSC RX malfunctionGeneral errorA DSC error will occur when the FA-170 cannot detect a correct signal strength from the DSC receive circuit 120 seconds.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 MMSI4) An excessively high VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Ratio) for the AIS antenna de-tected.WarningIcon Priority MeaningActive-unacknowledged notification, icon is flashing.*Warning Active-silenced notification, icon is flashing.**: Flashing at 0.5 second intervals.Warning Rectified-unacknowledged notification, icon is flashing.*Warning Active-responsibility transferred notification, icon is lit steadily.Warning Active-acknowledged notification, icon is lit steadily.Caution Active, icon is lit steadily.Icon Priority Meaning
