Service & maintenance 6
6.1 Contact for support
Contact your authorized dealer for technical service and support of the SAILOR 6280/6281
AIS System. Before contacting your authorized dealer you can go through the
troubleshooting guide to solve some of the most common operational problems.
6.2 Maintenance
6.2.1 Preventive maintenance
Maintenance of the SAILOR 6280/6281 AIS System can be reduced to a maintenance
check at each visit of the service staff. Inspect all units for mechanical damages, salt
deposits, corrosion and any foreign material. Due to its robust construction and ruggedness
the SAILOR 6282 AIS Transponder, SAILOR 6285 GPS Antenna - Active, SAILOR 6283 AIS
Connection Box and Wall Tray and SAILOR 6004 Control Panel have a long lifetime.
Anyway they must carefully be checked at intervals not longer than 12 months - dependent
on the current working conditions.
Salt deposits
In case the equipment has been exposed to sea water there is a risk of salt crystallization on
the keys and knobs and they may become inoperable. Clean the units with fresh water.
6.2.2 Error messages
Error messages are shown in the display of the SAILOR 6004 Control panel and are read-
only. Tap the red triangle/exclamation mark in the lower right corner of the SAILOR 6004
