Troubleshooting
This table provides troubleshooting for common problems.
Symptom Possible solution
Receiver fails
to power
• Check integrity of power cable connectors
• Check power input voltage (6 to 36 VDC)
• Check current restrictions imposed by power
source (minimum available should be > 1.0 A)
No data from
HS60
• Check receiver power status to ensure the receiver
is powered (an ammeter can be used for this)
• Check integrity and connectivity of power and data
cable connections
No GPS lock • Verify the HS60 has a clear view of the sky
• Verify the lock status of GPS satellites
No SBAS lock • Verify the HS60 has a clear view of the sky
• Verify the lock status of SBAS satellites
Note: SBAS lock is only possible if you are in an ap-
propriate SBAS region; currently, there is limited SBAS
availability in the southern hemisphere.
No heading
or incorrect
heading value
• Heading is from primary GPS antenna to secondary
GPS antenna, so the arrow on the underside of the
HS60 should be directed to the bow side
• Monitor the number of satellites and SNR values for
both antennas - at least four satellites should have
strong SNR values
