1.1 Siting
Autohelm
The ST30 Depth instrument may be installed above or below deck where it
is:
• easily readable by the helmsman (normally viewed at eye level)
• protected from physical damage
• at least 230mm (9in) from a compass
• at least 500mm (20in) from radio receiving equipment
• accessible from behind for ease of installation and cable running
Note:
To prevent the build-up of moisture the instrument breathes through
the back cover. The instrument must, therefore, be mounted where the
back cover is protected from direct water.
The case is fitted with a foam gasket to form a water tight seal between
the instrument and the installation face.

1. Make sure the surface to which the instrument (1) is to be mounted is
smooth and flat.
2. Use the template (supplied) to mark the centres for the fixing studs (2)
and the instrument connector boss.
Note:
To allow protective covers to be fitted, adjacent instruments
should be sited not less than 6mm (0.24in) from each other (116mm
centre to centre min.).
3. Drill two 5mm (0.2in) diameter holes for the fixing studs (2).
4. Using a 60mm (2 3/8in) diameter cutter, drill a location hole for the
instrument connector boss.
5. Connect the power supply and transducer cables to the back of the
instrument (1). (See relevant installation sections)
6. Screw the two fixing studs (2) into the back cover of the instrument
(1).
7. Install the instrument (1) and secure with the thumb nuts (3) provided.

12V Supply
–
For stand-alone operation, use the 1m cable supplied with the instrument.
1. Connect the moulded power plug to either SeaTalk connection on the
rear of the instrument. Run the free end back to the vesselÕs
distribution panel.
2. Cut the power cable to length and connect the red wire to the positive
12V terminal and the screen to 0V. Protect with a 5A circuit breaker
or fuse.
1.4 Power supply (SeaTalk system)
If the ST30 Depth is to be connected to a SeaTalk system, use a Standard
SeaTalk Extension or Interface cable.
