ST40 Depth Instrument Owner's Handbook Document number: 81158_2 Date: 1st May 2001 Copyright © Raymarine Limited 2001 Preface i Important information WARNING Although your ST40 instrument is designed to give accurate and reliable performance, it should serve only as an aid to navigation and should never lead to the erosion of good seamanship. Always maintain a permanent watch and be aware of situations as they develop. EMC conformance All Raymarine equipment and accessories are designed to the best industry standards for use in the leisure marine environment. The design and manufacture of Raymarine equipment and accessories conform to the appropriate Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) standards, but correct installation is required to ensure that performance is not compromised. Handbook information To the best of our knowledge, the information in this handbook was correct when it went to press. [. . . ] · When powered up, all electrical equipment produces electromagnetic fields. These can cause adjacent pieces of electrical equipment to interact with one another, with a consequent adverse affect on operation. However, if a fault occurs, the following guidelines may help to identify and rectify the problem. Chapter 2: Maintenance and Fault Finding 9 Low battery Action Recharge your vessel's battery as soon as possible DEPTH D4735-2 Display blank Action Check fuse/circuit breaker. Check power supply. ST40 DEPTH D4736-2 Check SeaTalk cabling and connector security. Depth reading flashes when under way ST40 DEPTH D4661-2 Action Ensure that reading stabilises when clear of disturbed water, e. g. boat wakes, propeller wash etc. No depth information Action Check the condition of the transducer cable and the security of the connections.

Chapter 3: Installation 11 Chapter 3: Installation This chapter describes how to install the ST40 Depth instrument, and associated Depth transducer. The transducer is fitted in the hull of the vessel and is connected to the rear of the instrument. 3. 1 Planning your installation Determine the best positions for both transducer and instrument, such that the EMC installation guidelines and the Site requirements (below) are satisfied. EMC installation guidelines All Raymarine equipment and accessories are designed to the best industry standards for use in the leisure marine environment. Their design and manufacture conform to the appropriate Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) standards, but correct installation is required to ensure that performance is not compromised. Although every effort has been taken to ensure that they will perform under all conditions, it is important to understand what factors could affect the operation of the product. The guidelines given here describe the conditions for optimum EMC performance, but it is recognised that it may not be possible to meet all of these conditions in all situations. To ensure the best possible conditions for EMC performance within the constraints imposed by any location, always ensure the maximum separation possible between different items of electrical equipment. For optimum EMC performance, it is recommended that wherever possible: · All Raymarine equipment and cables connected to it are: · At least 1 m (3 feet) from any equipment transmitting or cables carrying radio signals e. g. In the case of SSB radios, the distance should be increased to 2 m (7 ft). · More than 2 m (7 ft) from the path of a radar beam. A radar beam can normally be assumed to spread 20 degrees above and below the radiating element. 12 ST40 Depth Instrument Owner's Handbook · The equipment is supplied from a different battery from that used for engine start. Voltage drops below 10 V in the power supply to our products, and starter motor transients, can cause the equipment to reset. This will not damage the equipment, but may cause the loss of some information and may change the operating mode. · Raymarine specified cables are 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 a suppression ferrite is attached to a cable, this ferrite should not be removed. If the ferrite needs to be removed during installation it must be reassembled in the same position. Suppression Ferrites The following illustration shows typical cable suppression ferrites fitted to Raymarine equipment. Always use the ferrites supplied by Raymarine. D3548-2 Connections to Other Equipment If your Raymarine equipment is going to be connected to other equipment using a cable not supplied by Raymarine, a suppression ferrite MUST always be fitted to the cable close to the Raymarine unit. Tools required The tools required for fitting the standard ST40 instrument system are shown in the following illustration. Chapter 3: Installation 13 57 mm (2. 25 in) 51 mm (2. 0 in) D4643-1 Note: If you intend fitting a nonstandard transducer, extra tools may be required Site requirements Transducer The transducer types required for the various hull types are as follows: Hull material Glass reinforced plastic (GRP) Steel Aluminium Wood Transducer type M78713 Through hull plastic (supplied as standard) or M78718 Retractable through hull M78714 Through hull bronze Other transducer types are also available for specific requirements.
