Introduction Thank you for choosing Star SEA Data. SEA Data is a digital instrument which will display all necessary data from the SEA. SEA Data is as standard, a log instrument, providing you information about speed, trip distance, total distance and water temperature.
Sea Data English A few ”do not’s” you should consider: − Do not cut cables too short. Allow extra cable length at the instrument so it can be re- moved for inspection without having to disconnect attached cables. − Do not place sealant behind the instrument. The instrument gasket eliminates the need for sealant.
English Sea Data Due to different shapes of hulls, the log transducer has to be calibrated on all boats. See 4.2.5 For mounting of depth transducer, see instruction included with transducer. Electrical installation On the back of the instrument there are eight pins; Four for the screw connector for the log transducer and four for the depth transducer.
English Function overview The SEA Data instrument can work as a log instrument, a depth instrument or as a combined log/depth instrument. You simply select the type of instrument you want, during calibration. 3.1 How to use the push buttons 3.1.1.
English Sea Data 3.2. Log functions 3.2.1. Boat speed The main functions displays the boat speed. The unit (Knots or Miles/h) is selectable during calibration, see 4.2.4. 3.2.2. Water temperature To view water temperature press UP or DOWN until the text TMP is displayed.
Sea Data English 3.4. Depth functions (optional) To change between Log and Depth information press MODE. This function will display depth in metres, feet or fathoms. To change unit see 4.2.6. A depth sounder measures the time it takes for a sound pulse transmitted from the transducer, to bounce on the bottom and be received by the transducer again.
4.2.3. C12 Instrument type (Type LOG) The Star SEA Data instrument can either be operating as a log instrument (LOG), a depth instrument (DPT) or as a combined log/depth instrument (ALL). There is also a demonstration mode built into the instrument (DEM). If LOG is selected, only log functions will be displayed.
Sea Data English True distance from sea chart Log trip counter distance The current calibration value New calibration value If you suspect that there is water flow, drive the boat in both directions and divide the trip distance by two.
English Sea Data 4.3. Customise your display The two main functions have one ”empty” sub function. One sub func- tion from the other main function group can be moved into this empty space. For ex- ample, the trip distance can be moved to the depth group. To do that, go to the trip function and press KEY and MODE together, the display is flashing.
