Troubleshooting Recommendations:
- This issue can occur because the Wide Area Network (WAN) port of Honeywell Aspire-100 CSU may not connect to the Local Area Network (LAN) port of Rockwell Collins SAT-200 (SDU).
- This timeout condition occurs to the CSU when the aircraft is being powered up only. Once the connection is established, there is no issue until next power cycle of the aircraft.
