CAUTION: Setup requirement
The ST60 Graphic Display is calibrated to factory (default) settings when first supplied. To ensure optimum performance on your boat, this product must be setup before use. Do NOT use the product until it has been setup using the procedures in Chapter 2, Preparation for Use .
EMC Installation Guidelines
All Raymarine equipment and accessories are designed to the best industry standards for use in the recreational marine environment.
Their design and manufacture conforms 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 recognized 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 :
• Raymarine equipment and cables connected to it are:
• At least 3 ft (1 m) from any equipment transmitting or cables carrying radio signals e.g. VHF radios, cables and antennas. In the case of SSB radios, the distance should be increased to 7 ft (2 m).
• More than 7 ft (2 m) from the path of a radar beam. A radar beam can normally be assumed to spread 20 degrees above and below the radiating element.
• The equipment is supplied from a separate 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. Cutting and rejoining these cables can compromise EMC performance and must be avoided unless doing so is detailed in the installation manual.
81228_1.book Page iii Wednesday, November 19, 2003 10:29 AM iii
• 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 used with
Raymarine equipment. Always use the ferrites supplied by Raymarine.
D3548-2
Connections to Other Equipment
If your Raymarine equipment is to be connected to other equipment using a cable not supplied by Raymarine, a suppression ferrite MUST always be attached to the cable near the Raymarine unit.
Product information
To the best of our knowledge, the information in this book and other product documentation was correct when printed. However, our policy of continuous product improvement and updating may change product specifications without notice, so unavoidable differences may occur between the product and the information supplied with it.
Raymarine cannot accept liability for inaccuracies or omissions in any product documentation.

Chapter 1: System Connections
1.1
Overview
This chapter assumes the ST60 Graphic Display has been fitted in accordance with the instructions in the ST60 Graphic Display Installation
Guide .
Mandatory connections
The ST60 Graphic Display receives both data and power from SeaTalk. You must therefore connect at least one SeaTalk cable from the ST60 Graphic
Display to SeaTalk as described below.
As it is not possible to describe connections for all possible SeaTalk configurations, the instructions given here describe the general requirement.
Adapt these instructions, to suit your particular situation.
A range of Raymarine SeaTalk extension cables and Raymarine 3-way
SeaTalk junction boxes are available to provide maximum flexibility when installing your display.
Optional connections
The NMEA IN and NMEA OUT connectors provide a useful means of communicating with external systems, but you can carry out all basic operations without making any NMEA connections.
1.2 Connecting to SeaTalk
Power requirements
CAUTION:
When instruments are connected to SeaTalk, ensure that the power supply for the SeaTalk 12 V line is protected by a 5 A fuse.
As the instruments in a SeaTalk system are powered from SeaTalk, systems comprising a large number of instruments may require connections to the power supply from each end of the system (‘ring-main’ style), to maintain sufficient voltage throughout the system.
This requirement depends on the total length of the SeaTalk cable run and the total number of instruments in the system. Before connecting the ST60
Graphic Display, ensure that the system with the display included, will

1.3 Using the NMEA IN and OUT connectors
Although the NMEA connectors provide a useful means of interfacing with external systems, you do not have to connect to NMEA if you are receiving the data you want from SeaTalk.
CAUTION: Connections to other equipment
If you are connecting any Raymarine product to other equipment, using a non-Raymarine cable, you MUST fit an appropriate suppression ferrite to the cable near to the Raymarine product.
If you want to connect your NMEA IN and NMEA OUT connectors to an
NMEA device:
• Terminate each cable in an appropriate manner for connection to the device.
• Ensure a ferrite is fitted to each cable, adjacent to the ST60 Graphic Display.
