What to check if the communication between the control unit and the display unit in the R5 SOLID Saab Marine Radio does not work?
If the communication between the control unit and the display unit in the R5 SOLID does not work, check the connections between the control unit and display unit.
Why my Saab R5 Marine Radio generates an alarm if the difference between the internal and external GNSS position is more than 100 m?
This alarm is generated if the difference between the internal and external GNSS position is more than 100 m for more than 15 minutes. Ensure both internal and external GNSS systems are operational.
Why is the GPS reception lowered on my Saab R5 Marine Radio?
If the ship is close to a harbor or shore with high structures or traveling in an area with high terrain, the GPS reception might be lowered. Ensure the GPS antenna is installed where it has a clear view of the sky.
