Raymarine ST60 - Data Inputs; Introduction

Preface vii
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing a Raymarine 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 Raymarine ST60 Multi
instrument. This instrument provides a wide range of accurate depth information,
on a high quality Liquid Crystal Display (LCD). The instrument is constructed in a
rugged weather-proofed case to provide reliable performance, even under the
most demanding conditions.
Data inputs
SeaTalk enables a number of compatible instruments to operate as a single,
integrated navigational system. Instruments in a SeaTalk system are linked by
means of a single cable, which feeds both power and data. Instruments can
therefore be added to the system by plugging them into the network. SeaTalk is
flexible enough to adapt to any number of compatible instruments without
requiring a central processor.
When connected to SeaTalk, the ST60 Multi instrument repeats information
provided by other equipment in the SeaTalk network.
The ST60 Multi instrument can also provide data communication between the
internationally-accepted National Marine Electronics Association (NMEA)
systems and SeaTalk.
