User's Manual
The box „TRX Status" gives you information about:

Valid MMSI: Once a valid MMSI was entered it says "OK". Status
OK is required for transmitting data.

"GPS position fix": If your GPS is working properly, status "OK" is
given.

"GPS Error": Value is always >10 m. Used as a hint regarding the
accuracy of the internal GPS.

"Satellites in view/used": Shows the number of received GPS
satellites and how many of them are used for position fixing.

"Transmitter": Once the transponder has sent data for the first
time, the status changes from "Standby" to "OK". If there is any
fault in the device, "Error" is displayed and the device does not
work properly anymore (needs repair). The box "Error Message"
gives information about the error.

"Receiver": When the device has received AIS data for the first
time after switch-on the status changes from "Standby" to "OK".
If there is any fault in the device, "Error" is displayed and the
device does not work properly anymore (needs repair). The box
"Error Message" gives information about the error.
The "Hardware Status" displays the value of operating voltage. Important
is the value stated in "Supply Voltage (TX)". This is the voltage level
during transmission. Here the easyTRX2 device is drawing approx. 2 A. If
the cables are too thin and very long, the voltage may drop down well
below the "Idle"-level (resting value). Perhaps you should consider using
cables with larger copper diameter and check all contact connections,
respectively.
The values RSSI1 and RSSI2 give information, if there are any interferers on
the two AIS frequencies. This may be caused by e. g. a faulty electrical
device on board. If there are no interferers the status is "OK".
