To Next PageTo Next PageWhat to do if no GPS position information is displayed on my Comar Systems CSB200?
If no GPS position information is being displayed (or the graph shows only blue bars), it's possible the unit hasn't acquired a GPS fix. To resolve this, check the GPS antenna connections and power cycle the AIS unit.
What does it mean if my Comar Systems CSB200 Marine Radio shows a VHF Antenna VSWR fault?
A VHF Antenna VSWR fault indicates that the VHF antenna is either not connected or is unsuitable for use with the AIS. Ensure the VHF antenna connections are secure.
Why is my Comar Systems CSB200 Marine Radio showing a position sensor fault?
A position sensor fault, SOG data fault, or COG data fault indicates the unit hasn't acquired a GPS fix. Allow at least five minutes for the unit to acquire a GPS position fix.
