Preventive maintenance

The Zeus

2

Processor does not contain any field serviceable components, therefore the

operator is required to perform only a very limited amount of preventative maintenance.

Checking the connectors

The connectors should be checked by visual inspection only.
Push the connector plugs into the connector. If the connector plugs are equipped with a
lock, ensure that it is in the correct position.

NMEA 0183 Data logging

All serial output sentences sent over the NMEA 0183 TCP connection are logged to an
internal file. You can export and review this file for service and fault finding purposes.
The maximum file size is predefined. If you have added several other files to the system (file
recordings, music, pictures, pdf files), this may reduce the allowed file size for the log file.
The system logs as much data as possible within the file size limitation, then it starts
overwriting the oldest data.

Exporting the log file
The log file can be exported from the files browser.
When you select the Log database you are prompted to select a destination folder and
filename. Once accepted the log file is written to the chosen location.

2
