Chapter 7: Post Installation Procedures

Chapter 7: Post Installation Procedures
This chapter applies to systems where the ST600R has been
installed as the only control unit for a Type 100/300 Course
Computer.
Once you have installed the system, you need to confirm that it is
wired correctly and is also set up to suit your type of boat.
This chapter provides instructions for the following procedures:
• Functional test, consisting of a few simple tests to confirm that the
system is wired correctly
• Initial sea trial, to swing the compass and align the heading, check
the autopilot's operation and check the rudder gain
Further customisation can be performed after the sea trial, as
described in Chapter 5.

7.1 Functional Test and Initial Calibration

Switch On

Once you have installed your ST600R system, switch on the main
power breaker. If the control head is active and the system operating,
the following will occur:
• The control head beeps and displays the pilot type as ST600R.
This shows that the control head is active.
• If the head does not beep, check the fuse/circuit breaker.
• If the SEATALK FAIL alarm is displayed, check the SeaTalk
connections.
