Why does my ICS Ranges display SIG on the status line?
- C
  Christina HarrisSep 12, 2025
  If the status line on your ICS Ranges shows 'SIG,' indicating a signal fault, it might be due to NAVTEX stations transmitting carrier without modulation or local interference. If it appears briefly, it's usually not a concern. However, if it persists, investigate potential receiver errors or interference from nearby equipment. Try turning off devices like battery chargers one by one to identify the source of the interference.

  If your ICS Ranges LCD is blank but the RED LED is on, it could be due to the green wire being incorrectly connected to 12V. Disconnect the green wire, as it should only be connected for programming purposes.

  If you are not receiving NAVTEX messages on your ICS Ranges, first ensure that you are within the range of a NAVTEX station. Then, verify that a NAVTEX channel is selected. Also, check the message age limit setting and decrease it to bring older messages into view. Look for 'SIG' or 'ERR' on the status line. If there is no error icon, refer to Appendix II.

Why is there no 518 or 490 icon on my ICS Ranges status line?

  Robert RodriguezAug 28, 2025
  If the 518 or 490 icon is missing from the status line on your ICS Ranges, make sure that one or both NAVTEX channels are selected. If you cannot select a channel, it indicates that the sensor is unavailable; in this case, refer to ERR troubleshooting.

Why is there no GPS indicator on my ICS GPS status line?

  Gregory BakerAug 30, 2025
  If there's no GPS indicator showing on the status line of your ICS GPS unit, the issue might stem from a lack of NMEA data input. First, verify the NMEA data connections. Then, ensure that the GPS unit is powered on and configured to output compatible NMEA sentences.

What to do if ERR appears on ICS GPS status line?
- G
  Gregg KaufmanSep 1, 2025
  If you see 'ERR' on the status line of your ICS GPS, it indicates a communications error. This could be due to several reasons: * **No power to Sensor:** Verify the connections to the sensor and check for 12V between the YELLOW wire and its BLACK pair. * **No communications to Sensor:** Again, check the sensor connections and voltage as above. * **Display Mode set to “Slave”:** For single display systems, ensure the ‘Display Mode’ is set to “Master”. * **Two or more master displays connected to a sensor:** Configure one display as the master and the others as slaves.
