Introduction Introduction Thank you for purchasing a Raytheon 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 Raytheon ST60 Speed instrument. This instrument provides accurate speed, log, trip and timer information, on a high quality Liquid Crystal Display (LCD).
SeaTalk network. A slave instrument is not directly connected to a transducer but repeats information provided by other equipment in the SeaTalk network. The ST60 Speed instrument can fulfil both master and repeater roles. Stand alone operation In Stand alone operation, the ST60 Speed instrument is connected only to the relevant transducer and does not display information from, or provide information to, any other instruments.
Introduction 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. • Bracket mounting.
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 Speed system. Where an instrument is purchased separately, a transducer is not included.
1.2 Normal operation Use the flow charts in this Chapter to operate your ST60 Speed instrument. The flow charts show the sequence of key presses and displays for the various operating tasks. All key presses are momentary unless otherwise stated.
ST60 Speed Instrument Owner’s Handbook Maximum speed The maximum speed is reset at power up. It can also be reset manually by pressing the reset key for 3 seconds. The display shows the maximum recorded speed since the last reset. This screen times-out to current speed if no user action occurs for 7 seconds.
Speed instrument is part of a SeaTalk system to which a SeaTalk- compatible wind instrument is also connected. Speed over ground Speed over ground (SOG )information is available if your ST60 Speed instrument is part of a SeaTalk system to which a suitable GPS instrument is also connected.
ST60 Speed Instrument Owner’s Handbook Trip The trip distance is reset at power up and may also be reset manually, by pressing the reset key for 3 seconds. The display shows the distance covered since the last reset. Note: The trip distance can be reset only if the instrument is a master, i.e.

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 Speed 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.
This will not harm the instrument and can be cleared by increasing the illumination setting to Level 3. Periodically clean your ST60 instrument with a soft damp cloth. Do NOT use chemical and abrasive materials to clean the instrument.
2.2 Fault finding Preliminary procedures Changes in the electronic environment may adversely affect the oper- ation 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 are unable to rectify a problem, contact the Raytheon Product Support Department or your own National Distributor, for assistance.
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
M78716 Through hull bronze Other transducer types are also available for specific requirements. For further details, contact your local Raytheon 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.
• Raytheon specified cables should be used at all times. Cutting and rejoining these cables can compromise EMC performance and so must be avoided unless doing so is detailed in the installation manual.
If your Raytheon equipment is going to be connected to other equipment using a cable not supplied by Raytheon, a suppression ferrite MUST always be fitted to the cable close to the Raytheon unit. 3.2 Procedures As it is not possible to describe procedures for all possible installation scenarios, the procedures given here describe the broad requirements for installing Speed transducers and the ST60 Speed instrument.
ST60 Speed Instrument Owner’s Handbook 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 24 mm. • Flush mounting. Gives a profile of approximately 6 mm.
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.
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.
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...
ST60 Speed Instrument Owner’s Handbook 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.
Chapter 3: Installation 4 mm 3 mm Preparing wire for connection D4467-2 Observing the above guidelines, run the transducer cable to the ST60 Speed instrument. Connecting the instrument Types of connection The ST60 Speed instrument, can be connected: • As a stand-alone, master instrument connected directly to the Speed transducer.

Chapter 3: Installation 5 A fused, 12 V dc supply (typically provided by autopilot) Screen Instruments 5 to 16 Screen SeaTalk power connections D4311-1 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.
• Set pop-up pilot display on or off. Procedure To carry out a User calibration: 1. Power up the ST60 Speed instrument. 2. Press the speed and trip keys for approximately 2 seconds so that the User calibration entry screen is displayed.
Chapter 4: Calibration • Use the Adjust to SOG screen to automatically set the current speed to SOG (if available from SeaTalk). You must be running in slack tide conditions to successfully use this method. • Manually apply a calibration factor by means of the Cal factor adjust screen, to set the displayed speed value to your best estimate of the vessel’s speed.

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.
