81040_1.book Page vii Thursday, November 7, 2002 10:21 AM vii 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 Tridata instrument. This instrument provides accurate depth, speed, trip and timer information, on a high quality Liquid Crystal Display (LCD).
81040_1.book Page viii Thursday, November 7, 2002 10:21 AM viii ST60 Tridata Instrument Owner’s Manual In a SeaTalk system, each instrument can be either a master or dedicated repeater unit. A master instrument is directly connected to a transducer (the device that provides the raw data), and provides data and control for the service it is providing, to all other equipment on the SeaTalk network.
