This troubleshooting guide assumes that you have read and understood this manual.
It is possible in many cases to solve difficulties without the need for the after-sales
service. Please read this chapter carefully before contacting your AdvanSea retailer.
1.
The unit will not power on:
•
Fuse melted or circuit breaker triggered.
•
Voltage too low
•
Power cable disconnected or damaged.
2.
Wrong or incoherent depth reading:
•
The unit cannot detect the sea bottom momentarily, because
the depth is too high or too low, due to lack of water clarity,
reverse manoeuvring or rough seas.
•
Sensor cable disconnected or damaged.
•
Dirty or damaged sensor. Check that the sensor is not covered
with too thick a coat of paint.
•
Sensor incorrectly mounted or not sufficiently immersed.
•
Ultrasound signal interference from another sensor.
•
Electrical interference. Review the installation.
It is recommended to do a test with another working sensor (hold it under
water near the boat) to check if the sounder and the on-board sensor are
working correctly.
3.
SIMU flashing on the screen, with incoherent readings displayed.
•
Unit in simulation mode (see 2.4.3).
If the problems continue, we recommend you contact your advanSea retailer or our
