Acknowledging Alarms and Messages

Alarms of more serious faults and depth alarms are
accompanied by a buzzer.
1. Silence the buzzer by pushing the SELECTION
WHEEL 4 on the control panel.
2. Read the alarm/message pop-up.
3. Take the indicated actions.
A fault pop-up alternates between "source of
fault/cause of fault" and "recommended ac-
tions to take." For additional information, please
see Troubleshooting on page 147.
4. Acknowledge the pop-up by pushing the SELEC-
TION WHEEL on the control panel (sometimes
repeatedly). The pop-up will disappear.
If there is a depth alarm pop-up, it will reappear
every 30 seconds until the depth exceeds the
depth alarm set point.
Unattended faults will result in new fault pop-ups every
time the system is powered up or when the engines
are started.

Clear Flood Before Starting the Engine

Please see If the Engine Floods on page 35.

Starting Using the Start/Stop Panel

Push the starter button. Release the button as soon
as the engine has started. Stop cranking if the engine
does not start within 10 seconds. For twin engine in-
stallations, press both start buttons.
If a station is active and locked, the engine(s) can
only be started from that station.
