Chapter 1: Intr oduction 1 1 Introduction Chapter 1: Introduction The Raymarine ST600 1 Plus (ST6001+) is a SeaT alk ® c ompatible autopilot control unit. It is designed as the main control unit for Raymarine T ype 1 50, 150G , 400 and 40 0G course computers.
2 ST6001+ Autopilot Control Unit - Owner ’ s Handbook 1 Introduction Functio ns with T ype 150/150 G and 400/400 G autop ilots The functions provi ded with T ype 150/ 150G and T ype 400/4000G autopi.
Chapter 2: Ba sic Operation 3 2 Basic Operatio n Chapter 2: Basic Oper ation The sections in this chapter explain how to use the basic functions on your ST6001+ aut opilot control u nit: Note: If you are using the control uni t with a non-150/40 0 autopilot syst em, r efer to the note s in th e App endix .
4 ST6001+ Autopilot Control Unit - Owner ’ s Handbook 2 Basic O perat ion 2.1 Using the contr ol unit Start-up mode The autopilot alw ays powers up in S tandby mode with the display showing the boat ’ s current compass heading. Note: You can press stan dby at any time to return to manual steering.
Chapter 2: Ba sic Operation 5 2 Basic Operatio n Display layout The ST6001+ display screen prov ides the following i nformation: The bar graph at the bottom of the screen is normally a rudder position indicator . This indicates the current position of the rudder , as measured by the rudder posi tion sensor .
6 ST6001+ Autopilot Control Unit - Owner ’ s Handbook 2 Basic O perat ion 2.2 Using A uto mode CAUTION: Before using Auto mode, make sure th at the pilot has been correctly commissioned. Engaging the autopilot (Auto mode) T o engage the autopilot: 1.
Chapter 2: Ba sic Operation 7 2 Basic Operatio n Changing course in Auto mode In Auto mode, use the -1 and -10 (port) and +1 and +10 (sta rboard) keys to change the locked heading in steps of 1 ° or 10 ° . For example: pre ss - 10 three t imes for a 30 ° co urse change to port.
8 ST6001+ Autopilot Control Unit - Owner ’ s Handbook 2 Basic O perat ion Y ou ca n ad jus t the default response level in either User or Dealer Calibrati on (see page 85 ). This determines the default power -up response level. However , when using your autopilot on a day-t o-day basis, you can make temporary adjustments to the response level.
Chapter 2: Ba sic Operation 9 2 Basic Operatio n Respon se leve l – T ypes 150/400 and 100/300 The response level control s the relationship between the autopilot ’ s course keeping accuracy and the amount of helm/drive activity . Y ou can adjust the default response level in either User or Dealer Calibration (see page 8 5 ).
10 ST6001+ Autopilot Control Unit - Owner ’ s Handbook 2 Basic O perat ion Off Course warning The ST6001+ activates the OFF COURSE warning when the boat has been off cours e from the locked heading by more than the specified angle* for longer than 20 seconds.
Chapter 2: Ba sic Operation 11 2 Basic Operatio n Dodging an obs tacle 1. Select a course change in the appropriate direct ion. For example, pre ss -10 three times for a 30 ° dodge t o port.
12 ST6001+ Autopilot Control Unit - Owner ’ s Handbook 2 Basic O perat ion Using sail boat features Automati c tack (Au toT ack) The ST6001+ has a built in automatic tack f acility (AutoT ack) that turns the boat thro ugh 100 ° in the required direction.
Chapter 2: Ba sic Operation 13 2 Basic Operatio n • with gybe inhi bit on : • you will be able to p erform a n AutoT ack into the wind • to prevent accidental gybes , the autopilot will prevent the boat from performing an AutoT ack away from th e wind • with gybe inhi bit off : • you can perform an AutoT ack into or away from the wind.
14 ST6001+ Autopilot Control Unit - Owner ’ s Handbook 2 Basic O perat ion 2.3 Adjus ting displ ay/keypad lighting Note: When the displa y lighting is off, the contr ol unit illu minates the keys at a courtesy level. T o adjust the displ ay and keypad lighting: 1.
Chapter 3: Adv anced Operatio n 15 3 Advanced Operation Chapter 3: Adva nced Oper ation The sections in this chapter explain how to use the more advanced function s on your autopilot: Note: If you are using the control uni t with a non-150/40 0 autopilot syst em, r efer to the note s in th e App endix .
16 ST6001+ Autopilot Control Unit - Owner ’ s Handbook 3 Advanced Operation 3.1 Using T rac k mode Note: You can only use Track mode if you have conn ected the autopilot t o a suitable navigat ion system providing S eaTalk or NMEA navigatio n information .
Chapter 3: Adv anced Operatio n 17 3 Advanced Operation Note: The closer the boat is to the correct heading and track when you press tr ac k , the quicker the autopilot will bri ng the boat onto the new course. If the boat is more than 0.3 nm from the track, the Large Cross Track Err or warning will sound (see p age 17).
18 ST6001+ Autopilot Control Unit - Owner ’ s Handbook 3 Advanced Operation Tidal stream compensation Under mo st condit ions, the aut opilot will h old the sele cted trac k to within ± 0.
Chapter 3: Adv anced Operatio n 19 3 Advanced Operation In order of preference, the autopilot uses: • measured boat speed (speed t hrough water) • if this is not availa ble, it uses th e speed ove.
20 ST6001+ Autopilot Control Unit - Owner ’ s Handbook 3 Advanced Operation Adva nce When the ST6001 + sounds the W aypoint Advance warning, it suspends T rack mode and maintains the current boat heading.T o advance to the next waypoint: 1. Che ck that it is safe to tu rn onto the n ew track.
Chapter 3: Adv anced Operatio n 21 3 Advanced Operation • the boat arrives at the tar get waypoint and the navigat or accepts the next waypoint • you activate the Man Overboard (MOB) function in T.
22 ST6001+ Autopilot Control Unit - Owner ’ s Handbook 3 Advanced Operation Safety in T rack mode CAUTION: T rack mode provides accurate track keepi ng even in complex navigation al situations.
Chapter 3: Adv anced Operatio n 23 3 Advanced Operation 3.2 Using Wind V ane mode – sail boats Note: You can only select Wind Van e mode if the autopi lot is receiving su itable SeaTalk or NMEA wi nd direction information .
24 ST6001+ Autopilot Control Unit - Owner ’ s Handbook 3 Advanced Operation Selecting Wind V ane mode Y ou can select W ind V ane mode from ei ther Standby or Aut o mode: 1.
Chapter 3: Adv anced Operatio n 25 3 Advanced Operation Returning to the previous wind angle (LAST WND) If you have steered the boat away from the sel ected wind angle for any reason (such as a do dge maneuver or selecting Stan dby mode), you can return to the previ ous locked wind angle: 1.
26 ST6001+ Autopilot Control Unit - Owner ’ s Handbook 3 Advanced Operation Wind Shift warning If the auto pilot detects a wind sh ift of mor e than 15 ° it will sound t he wind shift warning and disp lay the WIND SHIFT message: • T o cancel the warning, and retain the existing wind angle and new heading, press standby and auto together .
Chapter 3: Adv anced Operatio n 27 3 Advanced Operation When you AutoT ack in W ind V ane mode, the boat turns through t he AutoT ack a ngle. The au topilot wi ll then trim the head ing to m irror the locked wind angle from the previous tack.
28 ST6001+ Autopilot Control Unit - Owner ’ s Handbook 3 Advanced Operation • if rud der gain is too high , courses change will result in a distinct overshoot ( A ) • if rudder g ain is too low .
Chapter 3: Adv anced Operatio n 29 3 Advanced Operation 3.4 Dis playing da ta pages Use the disp key to show ‘ data pages ’ of SeaT alk or NMEA data: 1.
30 ST6001+ Autopilot Control Unit - Owner ’ s Handbook 3 Advanced Operation Wa tch timer The ST6001+ has a W atch t imer controlled by the WA TCH data page. This timer sounds a w arning every 4 minutes, requi ring a keypad press on the autopilot. Setting the Watch timer T o set th e W atch timer: 1.
