Why does my AutoAnchor Marine Equipment count but not operate the windlass?
If the AutoAnchor Marine Equipment counts but does not operate the windlass, the total length of rode has been set to off. The AutoAnchor then operates as a counter only.
What causes the 'Motor externally controlled' message on my AutoAnchor 710-6?
The AutoAnchor Remote Control may display 'Motor externally controlled' because another control is being used for the windlass, the solenoid common ground is not connected or swapped with an up or down terminal, or there is a large voltage potential difference between AA710 Ground and Solenoid common ground.
What to do if my AutoAnchor 710-6 Remote Control says 'Sensor: No sensor pulses detected'?
The 'Sensor: No sensor pulses detected' message on your AutoAnchor Remote Control can be resolved by: 1. Using manual operation to check the windlass speed is more than the minimum operating speed of 5 meters per minute. 2. Checking the correct windlass setup and sensor selection. 3. Checking the magnet and sensor installation. 4. Checking the magnet and sensor are not damaged (e.g., rusted magnet). 5. Checking the gap between the magnet and sensor is correct for your setup. 6. If using a rope/chain system, ensure the sensor installation is compatible with a rope/chain setup. 7. Going to Diagnostics in the Setup Menu to view sensor voltages.
How to fix 'Power supply wired incorrectly' on AutoAnchor Remote Control?
The 'Power supply wired incorrectly' message on your AutoAnchor Remote Control means that the wiring diagram was not followed. Refer to the wiring diagram to resolve this issue.
What to do if AutoAnchor 710-6 Remote Control displays 'Sensor: Sensor installation not compatible with rope and chain settings'?
The 'Sensor: Sensor installation not compatible with rope and chain settings' message on your AutoAnchor Remote Control can be resolved by: 1. Checking the correct windlass setup has been selected. 2. Checking the magnet and sensor installation is correct. 3. Checking that the load sensing wires are connected. 4. Going to Diagnostics in the Setup Menu to view sensor signal readouts.
Why can't my AutoAnchor Marine Equipment console find the base station?
If the AutoAnchor Marine Equipment console cannot find the base station, first ensure that the master base station is powered up. If the issue persists, there may be interference on the current channel, the units might be out of range, or the registration could be incorrect. Clear registration settings for all consoles and base stations.
Why is my AutoAnchor Marine Equipment counting erratically?
If the AutoAnchor Marine Equipment counts when the windlass isn't turning or counts erratically displaying a large number, it could be due to uncontrolled anchor rode running through the windlass or external interference. Also, the sensor might be damaged. Check the sensor wiring.
What to do if AutoAnchor Marine Equipment shows 'Cannot register console and base stations'?
If the AutoAnchor Marine Equipment displays 'Screen Message: Cannot register console and base stations', try the following steps. First, turn all consoles and base stations off, then back on, and attempt registration again. If that doesn't work, clear the registration for all consoles and base stations. The units might be out of range, or there could be severe interference nearby, such as VHF radios, modified sine wave inverters, cables and antennas, or radar antennas. Try registration again.
Why is auto mode disabled on my AutoAnchor Marine Equipment?
If the AutoAnchor Marine Equipment displays 'Auto mode disabled', it could be due to several reasons: 1. No sensor pulses are being detected. 2. The sensor installation isn't compatible with the rope and chain settings. 3. The load sensing wires aren't connected for rope/chain counting. 4. A solenoid wire is disconnected. 5. No rode to be released value has been entered. 6. Total rode is set to OFF. Unless the problem lies within the solenoid wiring, the AA570 will still allow you to operate the windlass in manual mode.
What to do if AutoAnchor Marine Equipment shows 'Power supply wired incorrectly'?
If your AutoAnchor Marine Equipment displays 'Power supply wired incorrectly', it means the wiring diagram wasn't followed, causing power to backfeed from a source outside the control circuit. Consult the wiring diagram to correct this. A common mistake is powering the AA710 and deck switches from different sources.
