Section 10 – Troubleshooting
10.1 Introduction
This section provides guidance for troubleshooting and fault identification.
Before calling Sonardyne Support, preliminary checks should first be made on the Lodestar 500, so
a full description relating to the problem can be provided.
If technical support from Sonardyne is required, provide information about the Lodestar
configuration in use at the time when the problem occurred. You can do this by supplying a copy of
the relevant configuration file saved automatically by the Lodestar or SPRINT INS log files; refer to
UM-8084-107 “ AHRS Operation Manual”
or
UM-8253 “User Manual for SPRINT”
for more
information.
10.2 Lodestar Hardware Test Procedure
Figure 10-1
shows the recommended test procedure to follow if it is suspected that Lodestar 500
has developed a fault.
You can use this test procedure after installation to check the system operates correctly, or if you
suspect a fault during normal operation.
Note
There are no user-serviceable parts inside Lodestar. This Lodestar must only be accessed
internally and dismantled by qualified Sonardyne personnel.
