81038_4.book Page v Wednesday, March 24, 2004 3:17 PM Preface v Introduction Thank you for purchasing a Raymarine product. We are sure your ST60 instrument will give you many years of trouble-free operation. This handbook describes how to install and use the Raymarine ST60 Depth instrument. This instrument provides accurate depth information, in either feet, meters or fathoms, on a high quality Liquid Crystal Display (LCD).
1038_4.book Page vi Wednesday, March 24, 2004 3:17 PM vi ST60 Depth Instrument Owner’s Handbook not directly connected to a transducer but repeats information provided by other equipment in the SeaTalk network. The ST60 Depth instrument can fulfil both master and repeater roles. Stand alone operation In Stand alone operation, the ST60 Depth instrument is connected only to the relevant transducer and does not display information from, or provide information to, any other instruments.

81038_4.book Page 4 Wednesday, March 24, 2004 3:17 PM 4 ST60 Depth Instrument Owner’s Handbook Offsets Depths are measured from the transducer to the sea bed. However, offsets to the actual distances measured can be applied during calibration (see Chapter 4, Calibration ), so that the displayed depth reading represents either the depth from the keel or the depth from the waterline (W/L). To see the offsets applied on your vessel, press the offset key.
81038_4.book Page 5 Wednesday, March 24, 2004 3:17 PM Chapter 1: Operation 5 1.4 Pop-up Pilot A Pop-up Pilot facility enables instruments connected to SeaTalk to constantly monitor any changes to the autopilot mode and to the course settings. If one of these parameters changes, the new value is immediately displayed on the ST60 instrument for 5 seconds, after which time the display reverts to the previous display.

Have sufficient clearance inside the hull to fit the nut. Have 4 in (100 mm) of headroom to allow for withdrawal. Be within 10° of the vertical, forward, aft and athwart ships. There must also be a viable route for the transducer cable to be routed to the instrument.

81038_4.book Page 21 Wednesday, March 24, 2004 3:17 PM Chapter 3: Installation 21 • • • • Where cables are fed through holes, always use grommets to prevent chafing. Secure long cable runs so they do not present a hazard. Do not route the cable through bilges. Wherever possible, route the cable away from fluorescent lights, engines, radio transmitting equipment, as these may cause interference.
81038_4.book Page 22 Wednesday, March 24, 2004 3:17 PM 22 ST60 Depth Instrument Owner’s Handbook Connecting the instrument Types of connection The ST60 Depth instrument, can be connected: • As a stand-alone, master instrument connected directly to the depth transducer. • As a SeaTalk repeater. If instruments are connected to SeaTalk, no separate power connection is necessary. Where a SeaTalk system includes an autopilot, the power for the system is provided by the autopilot.
81038_4.book Page 23 Wednesday, March 24, 2004 3:17 PM Chapter 3: Installation 23 Power supply connections SeaTalk systems CAUTION: When instruments are connected to SeaTalk, ensure that the power supply for the SeaTalk 12 V line is protected by a 5 A fuse. Systems with a large number of instruments on the SeaTalk bus may require connections to the power supply from each end of the system (‘ring-main’ style), to maintain sufficient voltage throughout the system.
81038_4.book Page 24 Wednesday, March 24, 2004 3:17 PM 24 ST60 Depth Instrument Owner’s Handbook To fit a power cable: 1. Ensure the intended power source is switched off. 2. Run the power cable from the instrument to a suitable 12 V dc power source. 3. If the cable has not already been trimmed at the power supply end: i. Cut the cable to length and trim back an appropriate amount of the outer sheath. ii. Cut back and insulate the yellow wire. 4. Connect the screen to the power supply 0 V terminal. 5.

81038_4.book Page 27 Wednesday, March 24, 2004 3:17 PM Chapter 4: Calibration 27 Depth offset Depths are measured from the transducer to the sea bed. However, you can use the depth offset screen to apply offsets to this distance, so that the displayed depth reading represents either the depth from the keel or the depth from the water line (W/L). In order to do this, you need to know the vertical separation between the transducer position and: • The bottom of the keel. This requires a negative offset.
81038_4.book Page 28 Wednesday, March 24, 2004 3:17 PM 28 ST60 Depth Instrument Owner’s Handbook Setting offset values WARNING: The use of incorrect offset values could result in misleading depth information being displayed with a consequent risk of running aground. Use the offset (decrement) and reset (increment) keys to set the required offset value. If you want to display the actual depth reading from the transducer, set a value of 0.0.
