6.1.3.2 Indication: System Fault Message 3616 Displayed on Indicator
If the system fault message 3616 is displayed, it is likely that the problems are caused by the Analog
Interface if the AIS is connected via the Primary Display Port.
Procedure:
1.
Check the configuration of the Analog Interface. See the Technical Manual of the RADARPILOT
1000/1100 for further information.
2.
Check the correct setting of the S1 and the jumpers of the Interface Assembly SH3014G203. S1
must be set to position 2. No jumpers should be connected to the pins 1...4. See the Technical
Manual of the RADARPILOT 1000/1100 for further information.
3.
Check the software version of the Analog Interface. The software version must be F or newer. To
check the software version, use the
Telemonitoring Data
menu of the System Maintenance
manager. The line for the Analog Interface must look as follows:
SIR10T GE3044P207 F
6.2
Test of the Antenna Performance
With the AIS 3410 Electronics Unit is possible to measure the voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) of the
VHF antenna.
The measured values have the following meaning:
- 1.0...1.5:
The antenna installation and cabling is good.
- 1.6...2.0:
The antenna installation and cabling (cabling laying, antenna position and connectors)
should be checked and improved.
>2.0:
Poor antenna installation

Software Update
A software update can be performed by means of a laptop (or any other PC with Windows 95, 98, XP,
Vista as its operating system), a cable and the service software, which is available in the SAM-CMIS
system (see
If the AIS is connected to a CHARTPILOT or MULTIPILOT, it is also possible to update the software by
means of the CHARTPILOT/MULTIPILOT and the CHARTPILOT Application Software CD. See the Tech-
nical Manuals of the CHARTPILOT or MULTIPILOT for further information.
6.3.1 Software download from SAM-CMIS
