Troubleshooting

If the guidance given in the table above does not rectify the problem you are experiencing please contact your dealer for further
assistance.

Issue

Possible cause and remedy

Power indicator not illuminated

Check power supply connections and fuse or circuit breaker

Check polarity of power supply connections

Check power supply voltage

'VHF' indicator 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' indicator does not illuminate when
AIS transceiver is transmitting

Check the antenna output of the AIS transceiver is connected to the antenna
splitter input labelled 'AIS'

Clicks or pops are heard from a connected
FM broadcast receiver

This is normal and may occur during VHF or AIS transmission

VHF or AIS transmission range 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
