10. Troubleshooting

Your FDU-XT does not contain consumer serviceable components. You are
advised not to carry out any kind of troubleshooting. In case you face any
problems, contact the nearest service center. Only authorized service personnel
can repair the equipment.
Use only the antennas and cables that have been provided with the unit or that 
have been specifically designed for your FDU-XT.
Unauthorized antennas, cables and cable length modification or attachments
could damage the FDU-XT and may violate the relevant regulations, causing loss
of performance and radio frequency (RF) energy above the recommended limits. If
your FDU-XT’s antenna gets damaged, please take it to an authorized Service
Provider.

If the FDU-XT, the phone, battery, charger or any accessory does not function

properly, take it to your nearest authorized service center. The personnel there will

assist you, and if necessary, arrange for service.

Do not place the FDU-XT in a wet area.
Do not expose the FDU-XT to temperatures higher than +55°C Celsius or 

less than 0°C Celsius.

Do not expose the FDU-XT to moisture, dust etc.
Do not expose the FDU-XT to direct sunlight.
Do not disassemble the FDU-XT; this will void your warranty.

Do not store it in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the life of 

electronic devices, damage batteries, and warp or melt certain plastics.
Do not drop, apply pressure or shake it. Rough handling can break internal 
circuit boards.
Do not use chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean it. 
Wipe it smoothly with a soft cloth.

Do not paint it. Paint can clog the device’s moving parts and prevent proper 

operation.

Thuraya handset is not properly docked.
Thuraya handset is switched OFF.
There is not enough satellite signal strength (minimum of two bars should be

shown on the handset display, otherwise adjust the antenna).

FDU-XT is not switched ON.
Connections are not proper and firm.

Common Problems

Check if PIN locking is enabled and if PIN code is correct.
Check if the RJ-11 cable is properly connected (when using an

extension phone).

If the extension phone is not working, try to use the auxiliary

handset. If you are able to make/receive calls with the auxiliary

handset, please check the functioning of the extension phone.
Check whether the auxiliary handset is connected properly.

Make sure that the speakerphone is “ON”.
Select appropriate volume level.
Check if PIN locking is enabled and if PIN code is correct.
Check if the RJ-11 cable is properly connected.
Check if the fax machine is switched on and is functional.
Make sure that the Group3 fax machine is in auto response mode.
Check if the SAT signal level on the Thuraya handset is adequate.

Please note that not all Group3 fax machines are able to handle

mobile transmission.

Make sure that you have appropriate PC Fax software installed

in your system for sending/receiving fax through PC.
