ST60 Graphic Display Commissioning Guide CAUTION: Setup requirement The ST60 Graphic Display is calibrated to factory (default) settings when first supplied. To ensure optimum performance on your boat, this product must be setup before use. Do NOT use the product until it has been setup using the procedures in Chapter 2, Preparation for Use.
EMC Installation Guidelines
All Raymarine equipment and accessories are designed to the best industry standards for use in the recreational marine environment. Their design and manufacture conforms to the appropriate Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) standards, but correct installation is required to ensure that performance is not compromised. Although every effort has been taken to ensure that they will perform under all conditions, it is important to understand what factors could affect the operation of the product. The guidelines given here describe the conditions for optimum EMC performance, but it is recognized that it may not be possible to meet all of these conditions in all situations. To ensure the best possible conditions for EMC performance within the constraints imposed by any location, always ensure the maximum separation possible between different items of electrical equipment. For optimum EMC performance, it is recommended that wherever possible: Raymarine equipment and cables connected to it are: At least 3 ft (1 m) from any equipment transmitting or cables carrying radio signals e.g. VHF radios, cables and antennas. In the case of SSB radios, the distance should be increased to 7 ft (2 m). More than 7 ft (2 m) from the path of a radar beam. A radar beam can normally be assumed to spread 20 degrees above and below the radiating element. The equipment is supplied from a separate battery from that used for engine start. Voltage drops below 10 V in the power supply to our products, and starter motor transients, can cause the equipment to reset. This will not damage the equipment, but may cause the loss of some information and may change the operating mode. Raymarine specified cables are used. Cutting and rejoining these cables can compromise EMC performance and must be avoided unless doing so is detailed in the installation manual.

81228_1.book Page iii Wednesday, November 19, 2003 10:29 AM
iii If a suppression ferrite is attached to a cable, this ferrite should not be removed. If the ferrite needs to be removed during installation it must be reassembled in the same position.

Suppression Ferrites

The following illustration shows typical cable suppression ferrites used with Raymarine equipment. Always use the ferrites supplied by Raymarine.

D3548-2

Connections to Other Equipment
If your Raymarine equipment is to be connected to other equipment using a cable not supplied by Raymarine, a suppression ferrite MUST always be attached to the cable near the Raymarine unit.

Product information

To the best of our knowledge, the information in this book and other product documentation was correct when printed. However, our policy of continuous product improvement and updating may change product specifications without notice, so unavoidable differences may occur between the product and the information supplied with it.

Chapter 1: System Connections

1.1 Overview

This chapter assumes the ST60 Graphic Display has been fitted in accordance with the instructions in the ST60 Graphic Display Installation Guide.

Mandatory connections

The ST60 Graphic Display receives both data and power from SeaTalk. You must therefore connect at least one SeaTalk cable from the ST60 Graphic Display to SeaTalk as described below. As it is not possible to describe connections for all possible SeaTalk configurations, the instructions given here describe the general requirement. Adapt these instructions, to suit your particular situation. A range of Raymarine SeaTalk extension cables and Raymarine 3-way SeaTalk junction boxes are available to provide maximum flexibility when installing your display.

Optional connections

The NMEA IN and NMEA OUT connectors provide a useful means of communicating with external systems, but you can carry out all basic operations without making any NMEA connections.
1.2 Connecting to SeaTalk

Power requirements

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. As the instruments in a SeaTalk system are powered from SeaTalk, systems comprising a large number of instruments may require connections to the power supply from each end of the system (ring-main style), to maintain sufficient voltage throughout the system. This requirement depends on the total length of the SeaTalk cable run and the total number of instruments in the system. Before connecting the ST60 Graphic Display, ensure that the system with the display included, will
ST60 Graphic Display Commissioning Guide receive a satisfactory power supply. The requirements for power connections are detailed in the following table.
SeaTalk cable run Up to 10 m
No. of instruments 13 maximum 26 maximum

1.3 Using the NMEA IN and OUT connectors
Although the NMEA connectors provide a useful means of interfacing with external systems, you do not have to connect to NMEA if you are receiving the data you want from SeaTalk. CAUTION: Connections to other equipment If you are connecting any Raymarine product to other equipment, using a non-Raymarine cable, you MUST fit an appropriate suppression ferrite to the cable near to the Raymarine product. If you want to connect your NMEA IN and NMEA OUT connectors to an NMEA device: Terminate each cable in an appropriate manner for connection to the device. Ensure a ferrite is fitted to each cable, adjacent to the ST60 Graphic Display.

Setting up Favorite pages
As there are seven Favorite pages, you may like to use these to display data from each of the other chapters. So for example, on Favorite page 1, you could show selected data from the Depth chapter, Favorite page 2 could show selected Speed data, and so on. To setup the data you want on each Favorite page: 1. With the FAVORITE chapter displayed, select the page you want to set up. 2. Hold down the track and reset buttons for approximately 2 seconds, to enter the Favorite page setup mode. 3. Use the reset button to show the format you want, i.e. single element, dual element, triple element or quad element. One element is highlighted (white text on a black background), to show that is selected for adjustment. 4. If you have chosen a multi-element page, use the track button to move the highlight to the page element you want to set up. 5. Use the button to cycle to the data you want. 6. If you want to set up another element on this page, repeat steps 4 and 5. 7. Hold down the track and reset buttons for approximately 2 seconds, to leave the Favorite page setup mode. 8. Repeat the above procedure for all Favorite pages you want to set up. Refer to How can I customize my display? later in this chapter, for details of how to set up: How many Favorite pages are displayed. Whether Favorite pages roll around automatically or you select them manually.

1.4 What is the track button for?
If your system includes a SeaTalk autopilot working in conjunction with a track plotter, you can operate the track plotter in track mode, as follows: 1. Press the track button once, so the track plotter enters track mode. 2. In track mode, to pl t a track to the next waypoint, hold down the track o button for 1 second. 3. To leave track mode, press the track button again.

1.5 How can I tell what my autopilot is doing?
If a Raymarine Autopilot is connected to SeaTalk, you can use the Autopilot chapter to show the current pilot status. You can also set the ST60 Graphic Display to show the autopilot status, on pop-up pages, whenever the autopilot status changes, (see How can I customize my display?, below). Examples of instances when a pilot pop-up can occur are: Engage autopilot Disengage autopilot Change of course Enter track mode Enter vane mode Autopilot pop-up pages have a border to distinguish them from the other pages, and are displayed for 5 seconds.
1.6 What alarm messages can be displayed?
The ST60 Graphic Display supports a range of SeaTalk alarm signals and responds with an internal buzzer and an appropriate on-screen alarm message. In addition to this, the ST60 Graphic Display can also provide external alarm signals for the Auxiliary Alarm option. The range of available alarms depends on: What data is available on SeaTalk. Which alarms are enabled during User calibration (see How can I customize my display? below).
81226_1.book Page 12 Wednesday, November 19, 2003 9:53 AM

Internal alarms

The internal alarms are as follows: Message
ANCHOR ALARM (with current depth) SHALLOW ALARM (with current depth) DEEP ALARM (with current depth)

Meaning

Deep or shallow anchor alarm Shallow water alarm Deep water alarm
HIGH WIND ALARM (with current wind speed) High wind speed alarm RADAR ALARM LOST FIX ALARM LOW BATTERY ALARM (with current voltage) Radar guard zone alarm Lost fix alarm The battery voltage has fallen below the specified low-voltage level.

External alarms

An optional Auxiliary Alarm can be fitted at a convenient remote position, to give a loud, audible indication if any one of a range of alarms occurs. This option is particularly useful for situations where high ambient noise may make it difficult to hear the instruments internal alarm (e.g. aboard a power boat). Note: An Auxiliary Alarm cannot be used if the NMEA OUT port is being used for NMEA data.
What must I do if an alarm occurs?
If an alarm occurs, investigate the cause immediately and if possible, take appropriate action to remove the cause of the alarm. If an alarm message is displayed, use this to guide your course of action.
Silencing internal alarms
You can silence an internal alarm by pressing any one of the ST60 Graphic Display front panel buttons. Remember though, that removing the alarm sound does not remove the cause of an alarm. If the alarm condition persists, the alarm will recur.

81226_1.book Page 13 Wednesday, November 19, 2003 9:53 AM
Silencing external alarms
Most external alarms can be silenced only at the alarm-initiating device e.g. autopilot, GPS or master instrument. Exceptions to this are the LOST FIX ALARM and the LOW BATTERY ALARM, which can be silenced by pressing any of the ST60 Graphic Display front panel buttons.
1.7 How do I adjust the display backlighting?
When the instrument is first powered up, the display backlighting is set to its lowest (courtesy) level, to facilitate initial access to the buttons. To adjust the level of backlighting: 1. Hold down the button for approximately 1 second, to enter the backlighting-adjust mode. 2. There are four preset backlighting levels. Momentarily press the button to cycle through these levels until you reach the level you want. 3. Press any other button to leave the backlighting-adjust mode. Note: The display will time out to normal operation 5 seconds after the last button press.

Chapter 2: Maintenance & Troubleshooting

2.1 Maintenance

Servicing and safety
Raymarine equipment should be serviced only by authorised Raymarine service technicians. They will ensure that servicing procedures and replacement parts used will not affect performance. There are no userserviceable parts in any Raymarine product. Some products generate high voltages, and so never handle the cables/ connectors when power is being applied to the equipment. When powered up, all electrical equipment produces electromagnetic fields. These can cause adjacent pieces of electrical equipment to interact with one another, with a consequent adverse effect on operation. In order to minimise these effects and enable you to get the best possible performance from your Raymarine equipment, guidelines are given in the installation instructions, to enable you to ensure minimum interaction between different items of equipment, i.e. ensure optimum Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC). Always report any EMC-related problem to your nearest Raymarine dealer. We use such information to improve our quality standards. 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 it can lead to spurious resetting action, or momentarily may result in faulty operation.

Instrument

Certain atmospheric conditions may cause condensation to form on the instrument window. This will not harm the instrument and can be cleared by increasing the illumination setting to Level 3.

Cleaning

Do not use chemical or abrasive materials to clean your instrument. Do not wipe the instrument with a dry cloth as this could cause scratches. Periodically clean your ST60 Graphic Display with a soft damp cloth.
81226_1.book Page 26 Wednesday, November 19, 2003 9:53 AM

Cabling

Periodically examine all cables for chafing or other damage to the outer shield and, where necessary, replace and re-secure.

2.2 Troubleshooting

Preliminary procedures
Changes in the electronic environment may adversely affect the operation of your ST60 equipment. Typical examples of such changes are: Electrical equipment has recently been installed or moved aboard your vessel. You are in the vicinity of another vessel or shore station emitting radio signals. If you appear to have a problem, first ensure that the EMC requirements are still being met before further investigating the problem.

Fixing faults

Some data types may not be supported by your system and therefore will not be displayed on your ST60 Graphic Display. If you think that data is missing, ensure that your system supports this data before assuming that a fault exists. All Raymarine products are subjected to comprehensive test and quality assurance programmes prior to packing and shipping. However, if a fault occurs, the following table may help to identify and rectify the problem.
Fault Display blank Cause No power supply Remedy Check power supply. Check SeaTalk cabling and connector security Check fuse/circuit breaker Check security of SeaTalk connectors. Check condition of SeaTalk cables. Isolate faulty instrument by disconnecting instruments one by one. Check the security of SeaTalk connectors between functioning and non-functioning instruments
No transfer of information SeaTalk cable or between SeaTalk instru- connector fault ments (e.g. illumination levels). Failure of a group of SeaTalk instruments. SeaTalk cable or connector fault
