User Guide Triggered warnings As soon as a warning is triggered, warning notifications are sent according to the Action Plan. Warnings do not trigger a tracking of the system. Triggered warnings require user action. • Communication warning - check if you can obtain a status. If yes, the C-pod System works but the GPRS data traffic does not. Normally this is due to a weak cellular (GSM) network strength where the boat is located, and does not mean that the C-pod System cannot communicate at all. It uses the slower method of data text (SMS) messages instead. If this warning triggers often, refer to the trouble shooting guide, section Communication related problems. • Battery level warning - the battery voltage has dropped below the userdefined value. The battery most likely needs to be charged soon. If the voltage is allowed to drop further, the Power save warning will trigger. • Power save warning - the battery needs to be charged immediately. The boat's battery voltage is below 11.2V. The two alarm loops are turned off, since a voltage this low has an unstable effect on most sensors. Also, the Cpod reduces the power load on the boat's battery. If this occurs often, refer the Troubleshooting Guide, section Power related problems. • Credit related warning(s) - check if something wrong with your credit card withdrawal (subscription units), if your account is running low on credits or if the flat rate is about to expire (for pre-paid units). Warnings cannot be reset by the user. They are reset automatically if the corresponding parameter reverts to the allowed value. You can choose to disable a warning if you do not wish to be notified about it. 22

Triggered warnings
As soon as a warning is triggered, warning notifications are sent according to
the Action Plan. Warnings do
not
trigger a tracking of the system. Triggered
warnings require user action.
Communication warning – check if you can obtain a status. If yes, the C-pod
System works but the GPRS data traffic does not. Normally this is due to a
weak cellular (GSM) network strength where the boat is located, and does
not mean that the C-pod System cannot communicate at all. It uses the
slower method of data text (SMS) messages instead. If this warning triggers
often, refer to the trouble shooting guide, section
Communication related
problems
.
Battery level warning – the battery voltage has dropped below the user-
defined value. The battery most likely needs to be charged soon. If the
voltage is allowed to drop further, the
Power save warning
will trigger.
Power save warning – the battery needs to be charged immediately. The
boat’s battery voltage is below 11.2V. The two alarm loops are turned off,
since a voltage this low has an unstable effect on most sensors. Also, the C-
pod reduces the power load on the boat’s battery. If this occurs often, refer
the Troubleshooting Guide, section
Power related problems
.
Credit related warning(s) – check if something wrong with your credit card
withdrawal (subscription units), if your account is running low on credits or
if the flat rate is about to expire (for pre-paid units).
Warnings cannot be reset by the user. They are reset automatically if the cor
-
responding parameter reverts to the allowed value. You can choose to disable
a warning if you do not wish to be notified about it.
