Chapter 3: Commissioning Procedures
3.1 Introduction
Requirement
WARNING: Product installation & operation
An ST70+ system must be prepared for use in accordance with the
Commissioning Procedures, before it is used for operational
purposes. Failure to comply with this could result in death, personal
injury, damage to your boat and/or poor product performance.
Before an ST70+ system is used for the first time, it must be commissioned in accor-
dance with the instructions in this chapter. Commissioning comprises:
1.
Initial setup .
2. Dockside setup .
3. Open water calibration .
4. Checking autopilot operation .
Note:
If your ST70+ product is connected to an existing SeaTalk
ng
system that has already been suc-
cessfully commissioned, you do not need to commission the system again.
Autopilot calibration
The detailed requirement for autopilot calibration is determined by the autopilot. The
autopilot calibration procedures in this chapter are those for a ‘typical’ Raymarine
autopilot system. If necessary adapt these procedures to suit your system. If you
need assistance, please contact your Raymarine dealer.
Control information
As the ST70+ displays do not have fitted controls, all control actions are made at the
appropriate ST70+ keypad. Information on keypad controls, commissioning and
menu maps is provided in the
ST70+ User Reference Manual which is in PDF form on
the CDROM supplied with each ST70+ product. If you are unclear about the action of
keypad controls, please refer to the
ST70+ User Reference Manual before you start
the commissioning procedure.
Wherever an instruction calls for a button to be pressed or a control to be operated,
this refers to the appropriate keypad.
Commonly used control functions
Many ST70+ setup functions and values, plus many display options are selected by
scrolling to the required function or value, then confirming the value.
The manner in which you scroll to a function or value you want and confirm your
selection, depends on keypad type
