Chapter 5: Installation

5.4 Switch on and initial test

Use the procedures in this section to switch on your ST6000 Plus and

check its operation. If you have installed the ST6000 Plus as the only

control unit for a Type 100/300 course computer, also carry out the

procedures in Chapter 6, Post Installation Procedures

EMC conformance

• Always check the installation before going to sea to make sure that it

is not affected by radio transmissions, engine starting etc..

• In some installations, it may not be possible to prevent the

equipment from being affected by external influences. In general

this will not damage the equipment but can lead to it resetting, or

momentarily may result in faulty operation.

Switch on

Having installed your ST6000 Plus, switch on the main power breaker.

If the control head is active and the system operating, the following will

occur:

• The control head beeps and displays the pilot type, ST6000.

• After the pilot type has been displayed for 2 seconds, the Standby

mode screen should be displayed.

This shows that the control head is active. If the head does not beep,

check the fuse/circuit breaker.

If the text ST FAIL or NO LINK is displayed, check the SeaTalk cables

between the ST6000 Plus control head and the Course Computer.
