4. Operation
Turn on the 12V or 24v power to the SPL1500.
Ensure the VHF radio and Class B AIS Transponder are turned on.
Verify that the green
“POWER”
LED indicator on the front of the unit is illuminated,
Listen to channel 16 or another VHF channel and confirm that you can hear voice communication.
Press the PTT button on your VHF and ensure that the Yellow
“VHF”
LED indicator on the front of the unit
illuminates whilst the PTT button is pressed.
Watching the Yellow
“AIS”
LED, ensure that at regular 3 minute intervals or 30 second intervals if you are
underway (SOG > 2 Knots), the Yellow
“AIS”
LED briefly illuminates when the AIS Transponder transmits its
position.
If your Class B AIS Transponder was supplied with configuration/diagnostics software like proAIS, run this
software and check that the Power (SWR) readings are still within the acceptable value range.
Installation is now complete.
5. Troubleshooting
Problem
Solutions
Power LED not illuminated
Check power supply connections and fuse or circuit
breaker.
Check polarity of power supply connections.
Check power supply voltage.
‘VHF’ LED does not illuminate when
VHF Radiotelephone is transmitting.
Check the antenna output of the VHF radiotelephone is connected
to the antenna splitter input labelled ‘VHF’.
‘AIS’ LED does not illuminate when
AIS Transponder is transmitting.
Check the antenna output of the AIS transponder is connected to
the antenna splitter input labelled ‘AIS’.
VHF or AIS Transmission is reduced A small reduction in transmission range is normal and due to the
insertion loss of the antenna splitter
Both the “AIS” and “VHF” indicators
illuminate when the VHF Radio is
transmitting
This is normal operation with some brands of VHF Radio and not a
fault. Function of the antenna splitter is unaffected.
