Chapter 4: CodeLock Security
4.1 What is CodeLock?
• CodeLock is a personal four digit security code designed to protect
your valuable equipment against theft.
• CodeLock does not have to be switched on, but it’s there if you
decide that you need it.
• When CodeLock is switched on, the code number is stored in the
memory of all CodeLock compatible equipment on the same bus.
• A CodeLocked piece of equipment, if stolen, cannot be used without
the correct code number.
• There are basically two types of CodeLock compatible equipment:
masters and slaves.
Master’s
• Are used to create and enter a CodeLock code number.
• The ST80 Masterview is a master display head.
Slave’s
• Cannot be used to create a CodeLock code number.
• Can be used to enter a code number to unlock a system.
• Receive and transmit your chosen code number only.
• ST80 slave’s consist of the: Analogue Wind, Analogue Close Hauled
Wind, Analogue Compass, Maxiview and the Analogue Multitrim.
Code creation is usually a once-off procedure carried out on a master
display head, which, ideally, is situated in a secure location below
deck. Once entered, the code is automatically sent to all CodeLock
compatible SeaTalk equipment without further intervention.
If you require a higher degree of security, perhaps all your
instruments are mounted in exposed locations, CodeLock can
demand that you enter your personal code every time the system is
switched on. In this configuration, the code can be entered into any
convenient master display head.
