ST30 Bidata instrument Fixing studs (2 off) Thumb nuts (2 off) Mounting template 1m power cable Depth transducer (through hull) with 10m cable and 1/8in spade connectors Speed transducer (through hull) with 10m cable and 1/8in spade connectors (0 to 32 knots) Instrument cover Operation and installation handbook 10. [. . . ] 2. Make sure the surface to which the instrument (1) is to be mounted is smooth and flat. Use the fitting template (supplied) to mark the centres for the two fixing holes and the instrument connector boss. Note: To allow for the fitting of protective covers, adjacent instruments must have a 6mm (1/4in) gap between them (116mm centre to centre min. ). 3. Drill two 5mm (0. 2in) diameter holes for the fixing studs (2). Using a 60mm (2 3/8in) diameter cutter, drill a location hole for the instrument connector boss. Connect the power supply and transducer cables to the back of the instrument (1) (see relevant installation sections). Screw the two fixing studs (2) into the back cover. Install the instrument (1) and secure with the thumb nuts (3) provided. Chapter 1: Control Head Installation 9 1. 3 Power supply (Stand-alone operation) Caution: The ST30 Bidata must be connected to a 12V supply only. + + SEATALK DE PT D EE + 5A + 12v Supply For stand-alone operation, use the standard 1m cable supplied. Connect the moulded power plug to either 'SeaTalk' connection on the rear of the instrument. Run the free end back to the vessel's distribution panel. Cut the cable to length and connect the red wire to 12V and the screen to 0V. Protect the circuit with a 5A fuse/circuit breaker. 2. 1. 4 Power supply (SeaTalk system) The ST30 Bidata can be connected to an existing SeaTalk system using a Standard SeaTalk Extension or Interface Cable.

The daisy-chain cable supplies power to adjacent instruments and allows data to be transmitted and received via the SeaTalk bus. The daisy-chain cable plugs into one of the SeaTalk ports on the back cover. Chapter 2: Transducer Installation 11 Chapter 2: Transducer Installation 2. 1 Connection to instrument The depth and speed transducers are supplied with 10m (32. 5ft) of cable. These cables are fitted with female spade connectors that plug directly into the back of the ST30 Bidata instrument. + + SEATALK DE PT H + Speed 2. 2 Transducer type The ST30 Bidata system is supplied (as standard) with plastic through hull transducers. These are suitable for use with Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP), Steel and Aluminium hulls. Alternative transducers are available for wooden hull and transom mount installations.

Note: The ST30 Speed transducers are fitted with standard paddlewheels designed for speeds up to 32 knots. For vessels that will exceed this speed, please refer to section 2. 3 which contains instructions on how to fit the high speed paddlewheel (supplied). Chapter 2: Transducer Installation 13 2. 3 Paddlewheel replacement If the high speed paddlewheel (supplied) is to be fitted, or the existing paddlewheel to be replaced, proceed as follows: 1. Remove the retaining rings (1) and pin (6) from the speed transducer (3). Withdraw the speed transducer (3) from the through hull fitting (4). If replacing a worn paddlewheel and if the vessel is still in the water, replace the speed transducer (3) with the plug (5). Remove the pin (6) that retains the paddlewheel (7) in the speed transducer (3). This is a simple press fit into the transducer housing.
