Owner's Manual 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). The instrument is constructed in a rugged weather-proofed case to provide reliable performance, even under the most demanding conditions. D4324-1 Data inputs The ST60 Tridata instrument can fulfil master and/or repeater roles by receiving data either from the appropriate transducers and/or from a SeaTalk instrumentation system. SeaTalk SeaTalk enables a number of compatible instruments to operate as a single, integrated navigational system. Instruments in a SeaTalk system are linked by means of a single cable, which feeds both power and data. Instruments can therefore be added to the system by plugging them into the network. SeaTalk is flexible enough to adapt to any number of compatible instruments without requiring a central processor. SeaTalk can also communicate via an interface, with non-SeaTalk equipment using the internationally-accepted National Marine Electronics Association (NMEA) protocol. 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. A slave instrument is not directly connected to a transducer but repeats information provided by other equipment in the SeaTalk network. Stand alone operation In Stand alone operation, the ST60 Tridata instrument is connected only to the relevant transducer and does not display information from, or provide information to, any other instruments. Remote control When connected to SeaTalk, the ST60 Tridata instrument can be controlled remotely by a SeaTalk Remote Keypad Unit, to provide instant remote access to the various display readouts. Mounting options If you do not want to surface mount your ST60 instrument, options are available for: · Flush mounting. If you have ordered the flush mounting option a lowprofile bezel and four fixing screws are also provided. · Bracket mounting. ix Parts supplied Unpack your ST60 instrument and check that the following items are present: · Item 1, ST60 Tridata instrument fitted with standard bezel for surface mounting. · Item 2, Fixing studs (2). · Item 3, Thumb nuts (2). · Item 4, Gasket. · Item 5, Depth transducer. · Item 6, Speed transducer, plus bung (not illustrated). · Item 7, SeaTalk interconnection cable. · Item 8, Power cable. · Item 9, Instrument Cover. · Item 10, Owner's Handbook.

Spare spade terminals are also provided, to re-terminate the transducer cable if it has to be cut to facilitate installation. Note: The above packing list is for an ST60 Tridata system. Where an instrument is purchased separately, Speed and Depth transducers are not included. x ST60 Tridata Instrument Owner's Manual 1 4 2 3 6 2 3 5 7 9 8 TRIDATA ST60 Tridata Instrument Owner's Handbook depth speed trip Current depth Boat speed Log Trip Shallow Alarm Threshold Maximum speed reset 3s to Reset Water temperature reset 3s to Reset Deep alarm threshold Average speed Count-up timer reset VMG to windward Anchor shallow alarm threshold 3s to Reset reset Start/Stop reset 3s to Reset 10 minute race start time reset Start/Stop reset 3s to Reset Anchor deep alarm threshold 5 minute race start timer reset Start/Stop reset 3s to Reset 10 11 D4441-4 Chapter 1: Operation 1 Chapter 1: Operation 1.1 Getting started This handbook describes how to operate, maintain and install the Raymarine ST60 Tridata instrument. CAUTION:Calibration requirement The ST60 Tridata instrument is calibrated to factory (default) settings when first installed and must therefore be calibrated before use, in accordance with the procedures in Chapter 4, Calibration, to ensure optimum performance on your vessel. Do NOT use the instrument until the calibration procedures have been satisfactorily completed. Displayed information The ST60 Tridata instrument screen is divided into three separate areas, each of which displays a separate type of information, as shown in the following illustration. Depth Speed Trip, log, water temperature & timer Screen layout D4424-2 1.2 Normal operation Use the flow charts in this Chapter to operate your ST60 Tridata instrument. Flow charts are provided for: · Using the depth key. This gives access to current depth information. On master instruments, this also gives access to depth alarm threshold information, and allows you to set the alarm thresholds. · Using the speed key. This gives access to maximum speed, average speed and Velocity Made Good (VMG) to windward. 2 · ST60 Tridata Instrument Owner's Manual Using the trip key to gain access to log, trip, water temperature and timer information. All key presses are momentary unless otherwise stated. Depth Use the depth key to select the required information, as shown in the Using the depth key illustration. The depth measurement units are either feet or metres, as selected during user calibration (see Chapter 4, Calibration). Current depth depth To enable/disable any alarm Shallow alarm threshold Press reset for 2 seconds (toggle action) depth Anchor deep alarm threshold To enter and exit alarm adjust mode Press depth depth In adjust mode, use Deep alarm threshold trip to decrease or reset to increase Anchor shallow alarm threshold trip and reset together depth Using the depth key D4413-1 Current depth display The current depth screen shows the title DEPTH, the selected depth units and the depth measurement. It also shows a depth trend indicator, which is either an up arrow to show seabed rising or a down arrow to show seabed falling. Chapter 1: Operation 3 If for any reason depth information is lost, the DEPTH title will flash once per second and the displayed depth value will be the last good reading. Depth alarm threshold displays The alarm threshold 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 arrow for a shallow alarm or a down arrow for a deep alarm. The shallow and deep anchor alarms are identified by means of an additional anchor icon. You can enable and disable individual alarm thresholds by pressing the reset key for 2 seconds, while the relevant alarm threshold is displayed. Each alarm threshold is displayed for a nominal 7 seconds, and if no action is taken during that time, the display will timeout to the current depth display. Adjusting alarm thresholds To adjust the alarm threshold levels, press the trip and reset keys simultaneously to enter adjust mode, then use either the trip key (to decrease) or the reset key (to increase) the threshold value. When you have set the required value, press the trip and reset keys again, to save the alarm setting and exit the adjust mode. Note: Adjustment of the shallow alarm threshold can be disabled during calibration. When adjustment is disabled, you cannot enter adjust mode. Speed Use the speed key to select the required information, as shown in the Using the speed key illustration. The speed measurement units are either knots (KTS), miles per hour (MPH) or kilometres per hour (KMH), as selected during user calibration (see Chapter 4, Calibration). The maximum speed, average speed and VMG to windward are each displayed for a nominal 7 seconds, and if no action is taken during that time, the display will timeout to the Boat speed display. Boat speed Shows the current speed and selected speed units. 4 ST60 Tridata Instrument Owner's Manual Boat speed speed Maximum speed speed VMG to windward speed Average speed speed Using the speed key D4414-1 Maximum speed The screen shows the maximum speed attained since the last reset. The maximum speed value is reset automatically at power-up. If the instrument is operating as a master, the maximum speed can also be reset manually by pressing the reset key for 2 seconds. Average speed The screen shows the average speed since the last reset. The average speed value is reset automatically at power-up. If the instrument is operating as a master, the average speed can also be reset manually by pressing the reset key for 2 seconds. Velocity made good (to windward) Velocity made good (VMG) information is available if your instrument is part of a SeaTalk system to which a SeaTalk-compatible wind instrument is also connected. Chapter 1: Operation 5 Trip The trip key gives access to log, trip, water temperature and timer displays, as shown in the Using the trip key illustration. trip Water temperature Trip trip Count-up timer trip Log trip Race start timer 1 Press reset either momentarily to start timer, or for lap time (when running) or for 1 s to reset timer to start value. trip trip Race start timer 2 To enter/leave adjust mode, press trip and reset To set a different race start timer value, press trip reset to increase the value To enter/leave adjust mode, press trip and reset momentarily momentarily Using the trip key to decrease the value D4415-2 Log The Log screen shows the total distance covered by the vessel since the instrument was fitted. 6 ST60 Tridata Instrument Owner's Manual Trip screen The trip screen shows the distance covered since the trip value was last reset. The trip value is reset automatically at power-up, and if the instrument is operating as a master, the trip value can also be reset manually by pressing the reset key for 3 seconds. Water temperature The water temperature is shown in either degrees Celsius (°C) or Fahrenheit (°F), as set during calibration (see Chapter 4, Calibration). Timers The count-up timer and to the two race-start timer times are either in seconds (S) or minutes (M), depending on the counter values. Refer to the Using the trip key flow diagram to display the required timer. Once you have done this, press the reset key to start the timer running. When a timer is running, the delimiter (i.e. `.'or `:') flashes. For lap timing, press the reset key. To stop and reset a timer to the start value, hold down the reset key for 1 second. Once a timer is running, you can leave the timer page and select any other display. The counter will continue to run in the background. Race-start timers You can set each race-start timer to any whole-minute value from 1 to 15 minutes. Note: When the instrument is first installed, the race-start timers are set to 4 and 5 minutes respectively. To set a race-start timer: 1. Use the trip key as shown in the Using trip key flow diagram to select the required race-start timer. 2. Simultaneously press the trip and reset keys to enter the race-start timer adjust mode. 3. Use either the trip or reset key to set the required value. 4. Simultaneously press the trip and reset keys to save the value and leave the race-start timer adjust mode. Chapter 1: Operation If you are using one of the race-start timers and the timer buzzer is enabled, the buzzer will: · Double-beep every minute. · Beep three times at the start of the last 30 seconds. · Beep once for each of the last 10 seconds. · Beep for 2 seconds at zero. The timer buzzer is enabled or disabled as part of the calibration procedure (see Chapter 4, Calibration). 7
