LD900 and INS 

Commissioning  Guide 

Troubleshooting 

This section details the most common issues observed when commissioning and operating the LD900 and INS 
system. 

INS Solution is aligning but not converging  

•  Check the GNSS Heading solution is operation and correct. 

•  Ensure offsets are correctly entered as per the computed/measured offsets. 
•  Ensure there has been sufficient vessel motion. 

Dropping to Dead Reckoning  

•  Check GNSS Signal reception for masking or blockage. 

•  Confirm the GNSS1 cable and connectors are in a good state with no degradation or visible 

weathering. 

INS indications remaining in a Red (or Amber State) 

•  Check LED indication on IMU, refer to the tables for guidance 
•  Confirm INS configuration 

•  Confirm port configuration 

•  Confirm data connections and cables 

GNSS  Heading and INS heading are not aligned  

•  Ensure offsets are accurately entered as per the computed/measured offsets. 
•  Ensure the INS options are configured correctly. 

•  Check IMU LED indication refer to the tables for guidance. 

•  If the GNSS and INS heading are misaligned by 180⁰, check antenna connections (GNSS1/GNSS2). 

Vessel motion causes the INS solution to drop 

•  Check offsets have been entered as per the computed/measured offsets.
