Troubleshooting basics
8.6.1
Overview
This section describes an initial check of the primary functions of the SAILOR 600 Viasat Ka
system, and provides some guidelines for troubleshooting. Generally, if a fault occurs
without any obvious reason, it is always recommended to observe the LEDs and the ACU
display showing the active events. Possible failure states are shown in the web interface and
the display of the ACU.
Possible failure states are:
• SAFE MODE (e.g. hardware error, missing communication link between the ADU and
ACU, excessive ship motion) (see also
Software recovery procedure (SAFE MODE)
• Antenna data error (after exchange of modules, XIM)
• ADU POST error (hardware error)
• ACU POST error (hardware error)
For information on the function of the LEDs, see
Status signalling with LEDs and status
on page 8-11. For a list of all the error messages and warnings, see
