    P T H S P E S E T 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.

This gives access to current depth information. On master instruments, this also gives access to depth alarm level information, and allows you to set the alarm levels.

  • Page 15: Depth Alarm Level Displays

    Chapter 1: Operation Depth alarm level displays Alarm 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 depth trend arrow for a shallow alarm or a down depth trend arrow for a deep alarm.

  • Page 43: Depth Units

    Chapter 4: Calibration Depth units You can set either FEET 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.

  • Page 44: Warning: Use The Correct Depth Offset

    ST60+ Tridata Instrument Owner’s Handbook Setting offset values WARNING: Use the correct depth offset The use of the correct depth offset is critical to the safety of the vessel. If incorrect offset values are applied, this could result in misleading depth information being displayed with a consequent risk of running aground.
