"TX Forward Power, TX Reverse Power" are "OK" if the connected VHF
antenna is working properly. If the antenna has short circuited or the
antenna cable is disconnected "Error" is displayed.
The LED display of an easyTRX2 device is also displayed in the software.
If the check routine of the easyTRX2 device noticed any fault, or if there is
a warning, a short notice will be given in the respective tables. The
easyTRX2 executes a self-test every 30 seconds and displays the result. As a
result each error or warning report has got a countdown of 1 minute. This
means the report disappears from the table if the error or warning
message is not received once again within 1 minute. Thus the error or
warning no longer exists.

19.3. AIS transmitting data

The tab "Sent Data" gives information about the last AIS data sent by the
easyTRX2 Transceiver.
This is on the one hand the "Position Report" (AIS-Message No. 18), which
transmits MMSI, position, speed and bearing. Below you can see how
much time elapsed since the latest transmission. This can be up to 3
minutes, if your speed is less than 2 kn or 30 seconds if your speed is
faster.
On the other hand there is the "Static Data Report" (AIS-Message No. 24),
which includes MMSI, ship's name, call sign, ship's dimensions and vessel
type. This message is sent every 6 minutes.
