ST600R Autopilot Control Unit Owner's Handbook Document number: 81134-3 Date: May 2001 Preface i -1 + 0 -1 1 Raymarine, as part of its commitment to continuous improvement and updating, reserves the right to make changes, without prior notice, to the equipment, equipment specifications, and the instructions contained within this handbook. To the best of our knowledge, the information contained within this handbook was correct as it went to press. A great deal of care has been taken to ensure that this handbook is as accurate as possible. [. . . ] Press STANDBY and AUTO together for 1 second to display the previous apparent wind angle (LAST WND). stdby auto LAST DXXXX-1 The LAST WND?The previous locked heading is displayed, with an indicator to show you the direction in which the vessel will turn. To accept this apparent wind angle, press STANDBY and AUTO together within 7 seconds. If you do not accept the previous wind within this time, the autopilot will lock on to the current apparent wind angle. Dodges Full control is still available from the keypad when the autopilot is in Vane mode. · Dodge manoeuvres are accomplished by simply selecting the desired course change using the course change keys (-1, +1, -10 or +10). · Once the hazard has been avoided, you can reverse the previous course change, or return to the previous apparent wind angle (LAST WND). Chapter 3: Advanced Operation 23 Wind Shift Alarm The wind shift alarm sounds, and the text "WINDSHIFT" is displayed, if a wind shift of more than 15° is detected. Press STANDBY to cancel the alarm and return to hand steering, and steer onto the required heading. Press STANDBY and AUTO together to return to Vane mode with the new apparent wind angle. Using AutoTack in Vane Mode The automatic tack function, when used in Vane mode, turns the vessel so that the locked apparent wind angle is changed to an equal angle on the opposite bow. Initially, the autopilot turns the vessel through the specified tack angle (the factory default is 100°). Then the locked heading is adjusted until the required apparent wind angle is achieved. · To tack to port, press the -1 and -10 keys together. Note: If you use the Autotack function in Vane mode, it is important to check that the wind vane has been centred accurately when it was installed. Also, the AutoTack feature cannot be adjusted if you are using a Type 100/300 Course Computer. 24 ST600R Autopilot Control Unit AutoTack Angle Automatic Course Ajustment (If Required) to Mirror the Previous Apparent Wind Angle Apparent Wind Angle D3391-1 Operating Hints · Major changes to the selected apparent wind angle should be made by returning to Standby mode, changing course manually, then reselecting Vane Mode. This provides the optimum response for off-shore conditions where genuine shifts in wind direction occur gradually. · In gusty and unsteady inshore conditions, it is best to sail a few degrees further off the wind so that changes in apparent wind direction can be tolerated. · It is important to ensure that the amount of standing helm is minimised by careful sail trimming and positioning of the mainsheet traveller. · The headsail and mainsail should be reefed a little early rather than too late. Chapter 3: Advanced Operation 25 3. 3 Adjusting Autopilot Performance The response level and rudder gain can be adjusted during normal operation using a combined key-press. The default calibration settings for response and rudder gain (refer to Dealer Setup) are restored when the system is powered on. Changing the Response Level (Auto Seastate) The response level controls the relationship between the autopilot's course keeping accuracy and the amount of helm/drive activity. · Response Level 1, Auto Seastate (Automatic Deadband), causes the autopilot to gradually ignore repetitive movements of the vessel and only react to true variations in course. This provides the best compromise between power consumption and course keeping accuracy, and is the default calibration setting. · Response Level 2 (Minimum Deadband) provides the tightest course keeping possible. However, tighter course keeping results in increased power consumption and drive unit activity. · Response Level 3 (also Minimum Deadband) provides the tightest course keeping possible by introducing yaw damping (requires a rate gyro and is only available with course computer systems). [. . . ] If the fault cannot be traced or rectified, please contact your nearest Raymarine dealer or Service Centre. Always quote the product serial number, which is printed on the rear cover, and the software version number, which is displayed when you enter Intermediate Setup (see Chapter 5). 72 ST600R Autopilot Control Unit Chapter 9: Fault Finding All Raymarine products are subjected to a comprehensive test procedure prior to packing and shipping. In the unlikely event that a fault does occur with your autopilot, the following check list should help identify the problem and provide a cure. The display is blank · No power ­ check the fuse/circuit breaker. The display shows "CODE - - - -" at power on · The CodeLock code must be entered manually (see Chapter 4). The displayed compass heading does not agree with the ships compass · The compass has not been corrected for deviation ­ carry out the deviation and alignment procedures. Vessel turns slowly and takes a long time to come on to course · Rudder gain too low. Vessel overshoots when turning on to a new course · Rudder gain too high. The autopilot appears to be unstable in Track mode, or trackholding is slow · If tide speed exceeds 35% of boat speed, and boat speed is not available via SeaTalk, change the Cruise Speed setting in Dealer Setup from Auto (A) to the boat's cruising speed. The autopilot appears to be unstable on Northerly headings in the Northern hemisphere and Southerly headings in the Southern hemisphere · Northerly/Southerly heading correction not set up. Display shows CAL LOCK when entering calibration · Calibration locked out ­ calibration protection feature is turned on in Dealer Setup. The autopilot will not "talk" to other SeaTalk instruments · Cabling problem ­ make sure all the cables are connected properly. Chapter 9: Fault Finding 73 Position information not received · Navigator not transmitting the correct position data. The autopilot will not auto advance to the next waypoint · No bearing to waypoint information received from the navigator. A series of rotating dashes are displayed on screen · Compass deviation correction or dockside rudder calibration is running. The display shows a series of stationary dashes · Data is not being received ­ check the cabling. The display shows "NO DATA" · The signals received from the navigator are too weak ­ refer to the navigator handbook for further action. Locked wind angle cannot be engaged or adjusted · This feature is not available if you have a Type 100/300 Course Computer running software prior to version 11. 74 ST600R Autopilot Control Unit Index A Adjusting the Locked Wind Angle 21 Advance 19 Advanced Operation 14 Advice 71 Alarms 26 Apparent Wind Angle 22 Apparent wind angle Adjusting 21 Previous 22 Auto Mode 5 Auto mode 5­10 Auto Release 27, 49 Auto Tack 49 AutoAdapt 48 Automatic Acquisition 15 Automatic Compass Deviation Correction Automatic Deadband 25 Automatic Tack 8 Automatic track acquisition 15 Autopilot Operation 67 Autopilot Performance 25 AutoRelease 49 AutoSeastate 25 AutoTack 8 Vane mode 23 AutoTack in Vane Mode 23 AutoTack to Port 8 AutoTack to Starboard 8 AutoTrim 45 64 B Bar graph 4 Bar Selection 38 Basic Operation 3 Bulkhead Bracket Installation Bulkhead Socket 56 Bulkhead socket 56 58 Index 75 C Cable 52 Cabling 52, 71 Cabling Guidelines 52 Calibration Lock 42 Cancelling a Dodge Manoeuvre 19 changed, or if the operating mode is changed.
