    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 Depth instrument. This instrument provides accurate depth information in either feet, metres or fathoms, on a high quality Liquid Crystal Display (LCD).
  • Page 9: Data Inputs

    SeaTalk network. A slave instrument is not directly connected to a transducer but repeats information provided by other masters in the SeaTalk network. The ST60 Depth instrument can fulfil both master and repeater roles. Stand alone operation In Stand alone operation, the ST60 Depth instrument is connected only to the relevant transducer and does not display information from, or provide information to, any other instruments.
  • Page 10: Options

    Introduction Options 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 low-profile bezel and four fixing screws are also provided.
  • Page 11: Parts Supplied

    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 Depth system. Where an instrument is purchased separately, a transducer is not included.

    This facility can be enabled or disabled during User calibration (see Chapter 4, Calibration). 1.5 Remote control When it is connected to SeaTalk, the ST60 Depth instrument can be controlled remotely with a SeaTalk Remote Keypad Unit. Remote control of an instrument is indicated by a REMOTE legend on the display, to indicate that the keypad has control.

  • Page 24: Chapter 3: Installation

    Chapter 3: Installation Chapter 3: Installation This chapter describes how to install the ST60 Depth instrument, and associated depth 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 25 M78919 Retractable through hull Other transducer types are also available for specific requirements. For further details, contact your local Raymarine dealer. For accurate depth readings the transducer should be sited within the clear water flow areas indicated by the shaded areas in the following diagram.
  • Page 26: 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 27: Emc Guidelines

    To minimise the risk of operating problems: • All Raymarine equipment and cables connected to it should be: • At least 1 m (3 ft) from any equipment transmitting or cables...

    Raymarine. Connections to other equipment If your Raymarine equipment is going to be connected to other equipment using a cable not supplied by Raymarine, a suppression ferrite MUST always be fitted to the cable close to the Raymarine unit.
  • Page 29: Procedures

    Fitting the instrument The ST60 Depth instrument can be installed using one of a number of different mounting options: • Surface mounting. Gives a profile of approximately 24 mm.
  • Page 30: Flush Mounting

    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.
  • Page 31 ST60 Depth Instrument Owner’s Handbook D4537-2 2. Using both thumbs, gently press an upper corner of the instrument from the bezel, then remove the bezel from the instrument. Retain the rubber keypad which is released when the bezel is removed.
  • Page 32: Flush Mounting Procedure

    Flush mounting procedure Flush mount your instrument (see the Flush mounting illustration) as follows: 1. Assemble the ST60 instrument and low-profile bezel as described under Fitting the low-profile bezel. 2. Ensure that: • The panel on which you intend to mount the instrument is between 3 mm and 20 mm thickness.
  • Page 33: Bracket Mounting

    To bracket mount your ST60 instrument, do so in accordance with the Control Unit Mounting Bracket Instruction Sheet.
  • Page 34: Running Transducer Cable

    Running transducer cable Each transducer type has a 14 m (45 ft) cable fitted with spade terminals for connection to the ST60 Depth instrument. The manner in which you run the cable will depend on the locations of the transducer and instrument.
  • Page 35: Connecting Instruments

    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. A junction box can be used to join cables.
  • Page 36: Power Supply Connections

    Chapter 3: Installation Power supply connections SeaTalk systems 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. Systems with a large number of instruments on the SeaTalk bus may require connections to the power supply from each end of the system (‘ring-main’...

  • Page 38: Chapter 4: Calibration

    Chapter 4: Calibration Chapter 4: Calibration 4.1 Introduction The ST60 Depth instrument is set up with factory-programmed default settings, so in order to optimise the performance of the instrument on board a particular vessel, the procedures in this Chapter must be carried out immediately after the completion of installation, and before the equipment is used for navigational purposes.
  • Page 39 ST60 Depth Instrument Owner’s Handbook Note: The User calibration entry screen will time out to the main display after 7 seconds. 3. Referring to the User calibration diagram and information in this Chapter, carry out the calibration procedure. Use the depth key to cycle from screen to screen and the offset and reset keys to set the required values at each screen.
  • Page 40: Depth Units

    Chapter 4: Calibration Depth units You can set the units in which depth information is displayed to be either FEET, FATHOMS or METRES. Depth offset Depths are measured from the transducer to the sea bed. However, you can use the depth offset screen to apply offsets to this distance, so that the displayed depth reading represents either the depth from the keel or the depth from the water line (W/L).
  • Page 41: Setting Offset Values

    ST60 Depth Instrument Owner’s Handbook Setting offset values WARNING: The use of incorrect offset values could result in misleading depth information being displayed with a consequent risk of running aground. Use the offset (decrement) and reset (increment) keys to set the required offset value.
  • Page 42: Leaving Intermediate Calibration

    Chapter 4: Calibration To access the Intermediate calibration screens, hold down the depth and alarm keys for approximately 4 seconds. To set the instrument status: 1. Press the depth key to select the Instrument status screen. 2. Press the offset and reset keys simultaneously to enter adjust mode, then press either offset or reset to set the required status.
  • Page 43: Dealer Calibration

    ST60 Depth Instrument Owner’s Handbook 4.4 Dealer Calibration The Dealer calibration procedure (see Dealer calibration diagram) enables the following parameters to be set: • User calibration on/off. • Depth response. • Boat show mode on/off. Dealer calibration also gives access to the Factory defaults screen. This enables you to re-apply the factory settings if you want to reset the instrument to a known operating condition.
