How do you bypass an azimuth error code on a sitex t180 radar?

It seems like you're dealing with a technical issue related to a Furuno radar array. If the radar array is not spinning and is emitting a beeping sound, there could be several possible reasons for this problem. Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue:

1. Check Power Supply: Ensure that the radar array is receiving proper power. Check the power cables, connections, and any fuses that might be relevant. Make sure the power source is functional and providing the correct voltage.
2. Inspect Mechanical Components: If the radar array won't spin, there could be a mechanical issue with the rotating mechanism. Check for any obstructions or debris that might be preventing the rotation. Lubricate any moving parts if necessary.
3. Connection and Wiring: Examine the connections between the radar array and its control/display unit. Loose or damaged cables could cause communication problems and result in the array not spinning. Ensure all connections are secure and undamaged.
4. Software and Configuration: Sometimes, software settings or configuration options can affect the operation of the radar array. Check the user manual or documentation to ensure that the radar is properly configured. Try resetting the settings to default and see if that resolves the issue.
5. Error Codes or Messages: If the radar is emitting beeping sounds, it might be indicating an error condition. Refer to the user manual or any accompanying documentation for a list of error codes or messages and their meanings. This could help pinpoint the problem.
6. Contact Support: If you've tried the above steps and the issue persists, it might be best to contact Furuno's customer support or a qualified technician for further assistance. They can provide more specific guidance based on the model of your radar array and the symptoms you're experiencing.

Remember, working with electronic equipment requires caution to avoid electrical hazards. If you're not comfortable troubleshooting the issue yourself, it's always a good idea to seek professional help.

Hello,

check the battery, some error due to battery problems, and then rest it for a while and then test.

Yes. There is a battery backup to store memory. Read all about the Sitex Colormax chart plotters here:

"A" is not an error code. It means "all bogeys" and should be working fine

The Sitex T-185 will drive more than one radome. What's the make and model of the radome?

What you need is at the VERY least is a Ni-Cd battery pack with 600mA/hr rating. We have an HH-300, with a configuration of 4AAx2.

Interstate Batteries has the BEST price I could find, although when we bought the HH-300, I sent it to SiTex for a new battery AND a tune-up which cost around $100.
Here's the link to the Interstate battery website.

Hope this helps.

(EDIT)
Do NOT forget that these radios are wired center pin negative! (Don't ask how I found this out...)

More than likely the belt has come off again. This is a common problem with this radar. You'll need a small allen wrench to tighten it up again.

Hello Clifford,

This is an old message. Are you still having trouble with this or has it been resolved?
