not turning or counts
erratically displaying
a large number eg

cable may be fitted, or the AA550 may have
been subject to external interference - RF
or electrical. Check that the sensor cable
is not damaged and that the cable fitted is
Beldon 9501 or equivalent, 2 core, tinned,
copper, screened, as specified in the instruc-
tions. Check for external interference on
the boat eg damaged or loose RF cables or
aerials or other instruments that may not be
working correctly or have been damaged by
electrical interference including lightning.
Anchor rode is running through the
windlass. Check if the windlass is being
operated using the deck switches or a

and anchor is secured.
