    Preface 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 Speed instrument. This instrument provides accurate speed, log, trip and timer information, on a high quality Liquid Crystal Display (LCD).

  • Page 23: Chapter 3: Installation

    Chapter 3: Installation Chapter 3: Installation This chapter describes how to install the ST60 Speed instrument, and associated speed transducer. The transducer is fitted in the hull of the vessel and is connected to the rear of the instrument. The actual type of transducer depends on the type of hull in which it is to be installed.
  • Page 24 Wood Other transducer types are also available for specific requirements. For further details, contact your local Raymarine dealer. For accurate speed readings the transducer should be sited within the clear water flow areas indicated by the shaded areas in the following diagram.

  • Page 25: Instrument

    ST60 instruments can be fitted either above or below deck, provided the rear of the instrument is sited where it is protected from contact with water.

  • Page 26: Emc Installation Guidelines

    • 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.

  • Page 27: Suppression Ferrites

    Raymarine equipment. Always use the ferrites supplied by Raymarine. 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.

  • Page 28: Fitting The Instrument

    Fitting the instrument The ST60 Speed instrument can be installed using one of a number of different mounting options: • Surface mounting. Gives a profile of approximately 0.95 in (24 mm). • Flush mounting. Gives a profile of approximately 0.25 in (6 mm).

  • Page 29: Flush Mounting

    0.25 in (6 mm) above the panel fascia. Fitting the low-profile bezel In order to flush-mount your ST60 instrument, you must first replace the standard bezel with the low-profile bezel as follows: 1. Hold the instrument in both hands with the display towards you.

Ensure that: • The panel on which you intend to mount the instrument is between 0.12 in (3 mm) and 0.78 in (20 mm) thickness.

  • Page 31: Bracket Mounting

    Bracket mounting A Control Unit Mounting Bracket (Part No. E25009) enables you to mount your ST60 instrument in locations where other forms of mounting are impractical. Although this provides a useful alternative method for securing your instrument, it is only suitable for use in positions where the instrument will not be exposed to water.

  • Page 32: Fitting Transducer

    To bracket mount your ST60 instrument, do so in accordance with the Control Unit Mounting Bracket Instruction Sheet. Fitting transducer The ST60 Speed instrument is supplied, with a through-hull Speed transducer. The Speed transducer is supplied with detailed instructions for installation and maintenance.

  • Page 33: Connecting The Instrument

    Where a SeaTalk system includes an autopilot, the power for the system is provided by the autopilot. A range of Raymarine SeaTalk extension cables is available to connect separated instruments. These cables are supplied with a SeaTalk connector fitted to each end.

    Chapter 3: Installation 5 A fused, 12 V dc supply (typically provided by autopilot) SeaTalk power connections Stand alone instruments Stand-alone instruments are not connected to SeaTalk and therefore need to be connected to an alternative 12 V power source. Power cables are available in 2 m and 9 m lengths.

    Speed readings One of the most important reasons for calibrating the ST60 Speed instrument is to ensure that speed readings displayed on the instrument are a true reflection of the actual speed of the vessel.

    Speed calibration The speed calibration procedure involves carrying out two runs over a measured distance, to enable a calibration factor to be determined and applied to your ST60 Speed instrument, to ensure optimum accuracy. Each calibration run comprises outward and return legs, to minimise the affect of tidal drift when the calibration factor is determined.
