[CA] [CA11] AIS 700 - Errors on power

[Chuck - Raymarine - Moderator]

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum Nick,

The primary purposes of the AIS700's USB interface is to program the AIS700's MMSI and static data, to update software, to reset the AIS700's MMSI, and to perform diagnostics via a properly configured computer. Interfacing the USB port of an AIS650 or AIS700 to a PC which is powered by an AC power source may result in damage to the marine electronics and/or computer. When using an appropriate adapter, isolation is provided to prevent damage to the marine electronics and/or computer. While the AIS700 may be powered via a PC's USB port for the purposes specified above, the AIS700 will not be supplied with sufficient power to transmit and should not be expected to transmit when powered in this manner.

Was you PC connected to an AC power supply when it was connected to the AIS700?
