    Why is the Satellite LED flashing GREEN on my Thales VesseLINK Marine Equipment?

      carterryanAug 26, 2025
      A flashing green light on the Satellite LED of your Thales Marine Equipment means it's trying to connect to a satellite. If it keeps flashing for more than 5 minutes, make sure the antenna has a clear view of the sky. If the issue still persists, try rebooting the BDU.

    Why is the System LED flashing Green on my Thales VesseLINK Marine Equipment?
    • M
      Mr. Joseph RussoAug 28, 2025
      When the System LED on your Thales Marine Equipment is flashing green, it means the system is starting up. Allow the unit to run diagnostics and complete its start procedure, which may take longer when acquiring satellites for the first time. If the light doesn’t turn solid green after 5 minutes, switch the power off and back on.

    What to do if Thales Marine Radar VesseLINK is not obtaining a satellite signal?
    • D
      Daniel NewmanSep 3, 2025
      If the satellite LED is red and VesseLINK is not obtaining a satellite signal, consider the following: * Check the signal bars at the top of the Management Portal. If no bars are highlighted, wait a few minutes to see if the signal strength improves. * Check the antenna connection at the BDU and antenna for corrosion and tightness. * Ensure the antenna has a clear view of the sky. * Check for and turn off any potential interferers like active radars or VSAT systems. * If other interfering vessels are nearby, move your vessel to a new location. * Reboot the BDU and check the Alerts.
