Flow charts are provided for: • Using the depth button. This gives access to current depth information. On master instruments, this also gives access to depth alarm level information, and allows you to set the alarm levels.
81263_2.book Page 3 Monday, December 5, 2005 9:08 AM Chapter 1: Operation 3 Depth alarm level displays Alarm displays are available if the instrument is operating as a master. Each display is identified by the presence of an alarm symbol ( )and either an up depth trend arrow for a shallow alarm or a down depth trend arrow for a deep alarm. The shallow and deep anchor alarms are identified by means of an additional anchor symbol ( ).
81263_2.book Page 4 Monday, December 5, 2005 9:08 AM 4 ST60+ Tridata Instrument Owner’s Handbook An alarm condition occurs if: • The depth is less than the SHALLOW or SHALLOW anchor level. • The depth is greater than the DEEP anchor level. • The depth crosses the DEEP level. An alarm condition is indicated by an alarm buzzer and a flashing alarm symbol ( ) on the display. SHALLOW or DEEP alarms are indicated by up and down arrows respectively, and for anchor alarms, the anchor symbol ( ) is displayed.

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.
81263_2.book Page 32 Monday, December 5, 2005 9:08 AM 32 ST60+ Tridata Instrument Owner’s Handbook Setting offset values WARNING: Use the correct depth offset The use of the correct depth offset is critical to the safety of the vessel. If incorrect offset values are applied, this could result in misleading depth information being displayed with a consequent risk of running aground. Take great care to ensure you set the correct value.
