Chapter 1: Operation
Chapter 1: Operation
1.1 Introduction
Your ST40 Wind instrument:
• Provides apparent wind speed and direction information. Wind
speed units can be either knots (KTS) or metres per second (M/S), as
set during User calibration (see Chapter 4, Calibration).
• Provides true wind speed and direction information, if boat speed
information is available on SeaTalk.
• Enables a locked apparent wind angle to be defined either manually,
or automatically by a course computer. In this mode, the instrument
shows the deviations from the locked wind angle and the direction to
steer to achieve the locked wind angle.
CAUTION
Your instrument is calibrated to factory (default) settings when
first supplied and must therefore be calibrated before use, to
ensure optimum performance on your vessel. Do NOT use the
instrument until the calibration procedures have been
satisfactorily completed, using the procedures in Chapter 4,
Calibration.

Chapter 2: Maintenance and Fault Finding
Chapter 2: Maintenance and Fault Finding
2.1 Maintenance
Servicing and safety
• Raymarine equipment should be serviced only by authorised
Raymarine service technicians. They will ensure that service
procedures and replacement parts used will not affect performance.
There are no user-serviceable parts in any Raymarine product.
• Some products generate high voltages, so never handle the cables/
connectors when power is being supplied to the equipment.
• When powered up, all electrical equipment produces
electromagnetic fields. These can cause adjacent pieces of electrical
equipment to interact with one another, with a consequent adverse
affect on operation. In order to minimise these effects and enable
you to get the best possible performance from your Raymarine
equipment, guidelines are given in the installation instructions, to
enable you to ensure minimum interaction between different items
of equipment, i.e. ensure optimum Electromagnetic Compatibility
(EMC).
• Always report any EMC-related problem to your nearest Raymarine
dealer. We will use any such information to improve our quality
standards.
• In some installations, it may not be possible to prevent the
equipment from being affected by external influences. In general
this will not damage the equipment but it can lead to spurious
resetting action, or momentarily may result in faulty operation.
• Always switch off the power to Raymarine equipment before
working on it.
7
When requesting service, please quote equipment Type, Model
Number, Serial Number and, if possible, Software Release Issue. The
Software Release Issue can be ascertained by means of the
Intermediate Calibration facility, see Chapter 4, Calibration.
Instrument
Certain atmospheric conditions may cause a small amount of
condensation to form on the instrument window. This will not harm the
instrument and will clear after the instrument has been switched on for a
short period.
8ST40 Wind Instrument Owner’s Handbook
Periodically clean your ST40 instrument with a soft damp cloth. Do
NOT use chemical or abrasive materials to clean the instrument.
Cabling
Examine all cables for chafing or other damage to the outer shield and,
where necessary, replace and re-secure.
2.2 Fault finding
Preliminary procedures
If you appear to have a problem, first check the security of the
connections at the rear of the instrument and reconnect any that are
loose.
Changes in the electronic environment may adversely affect the
operation of your ST40 equipment. Typical examples of such changes
are:
• Electrical equipment has recently been installed or moved aboard
your vessel.
• You are in the vicinity of another vessel or shore station emitting
radio signals.
Fixing faults
Low battery
All Raymarine products are subjected to comprehensive test and
quality assurance programmes prior to packing and shipping. However,
if a fault occurs, the following guidelines may help to identify and
rectify the problem.

Chapter 3: Installation
Chapter 3: Installation
This chapter describes how to install the ST40 Wind instrument, and
associated Rotavecta wind transducer.
3.1 Planning your installation
Determine the best positions for both transducer and instrument, such
that the EMC installation guidelines and the Site Requirements (below)
are satisfied.
EMC installation guidelines
All Raymarine equipment and accessories are designed to the best
industry standards for use in the leisure marine environment.
Their design and manufacture conform to the appropriate
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) standards, but correct
installation is required to ensure that performance is not compromised.
Although every effort has been taken to ensure that they will perform
under all conditions, it is important to understand what factors could
affect the operation of the product.
11
The guidelines given here describe the conditions for optimum EMC
performance, but it is recognised that it may not be possible to meet all
of these conditions in all situations. To ensure the best possible
conditions for EMC performance within the constraints imposed by
any location, always ensure the maximum separation possible between
different items of electrical equipment.
For optimum EMC performance, it is recommended that whereverpossible:
• All Raymarine equipment and cables connected to it are:
• At least 1 m (3 feet) from any equipment transmitting or cables
carrying radio signals e.g. VHF radios, cables and antennas. In
the case of SSB radios, the distance should be increased to 2 m
(7 ft).
• More than 2 m (7 ft) from the path of a radar beam. A radar
beam can normally be assumed to spread 20 degrees above and
below the radiating element.
12ST40 Wind Instrument Owner’s Handbook
• The equipment is supplied from a different battery from that used for
engine start. Voltage drops below 10 V in the power supply to our
products, and starter motor transients, can cause the equipment to
reset. This will not damage the equipment, but may cause the loss of
some information and may change the operating mode.
• Raymarine specified cables are used at all times. Cutting and
rejoining these cables can compromise EMC performance and so
must be avoided unless doing so is detailed in the installation
manual.
• If a suppression ferrite is attached to a cable, this ferrite should not
be removed. If the ferrite needs to be removed during installation it
must be reassembled in the same position.
Suppression Ferrites
The following illustration shows typical cable suppression ferrites fitted
to Raymarine equipment. Always use the ferrites supplied by
Raymarine.
Connections to Other Equipment
If your Raymarine equipment is going to be connected to other
equipment using a cable not supplied by Raymarine, a suppression
ferrite MUST always be fitted to the cable close to the Raymarine unit.
Tools required
The tools required for fitting the standard ST40 instrument system are
shown in the following illustration.

Rotavecta wind transducer
The Rotavecta wind transducer can be either mounted on a flat surface
or clamped to a horizontal rail. Suitable rail diameters are from 23 mm
(29/32 inch) to 25 mm (1 inch).
The Rotavecta must be fitted:
• As high as possible and away from any equipment which may
shield the transducer or otherwise disturb the air flow.
• In a position which allows reasonable access for installation and
servicing.

CAUTION:
The presence of moisture at the rear of the instrument could cause
damage either by entering the instrument through the breathing
hole or by coming into contact with the electrical connectors.
Each instrument must be positioned where:
• It is easily read by the helmsman or navigator
• It is protected against physical damage
• It is at least 230 mm (9 in) from a compass
• It is at least 500 mm (20 in) from radio receiving equipment
• There is reasonable rear access for installation and servicing
• The rear of the instrument is protected from water.
3.2 Procedures
Adapt these procedures as appropriate, to suit your individual
requirement.
CAUTION:
Where it is necessary to cut holes (e.g. for cable routing and
instrument mounting), ensure that these will not cause a hazard by
weakening critical parts of the vessel’s structure. If in doubt, seek
advice from a reputable boat builder.

D4834-1
Running transducer cable
The Rotavecta transducer has a 20 m (65 ft) cable, fitted with spade
terminals at the free end, for connection to the ST40 Wind instrument.
Observing the following guidelines, run the cable to the instrument:
• If the cable has to be fed through the deck, always use a good quality
deck gland.
• Where cables are fed through holes, always use grommets to prevent
chafing.
• Secure long cable runs so they do not present a hazard.
• Wherever possible, route the cable away from fluorescent lights,
engines, radio transmitting equipment, as these may cause
interference.
16ST40 Wind Instrument Owner’s Handbook
Connections to the instrument
You can connect your instrument:
• Directly to the Rotavecta, transducer as a stand-alone master
instrument. When connected in this manner, the instrument must be
connected to a suitable power source using the 1 m (3 ft) power
cable provided.
• As part of a SeaTalk system either as a repeater or, with a wind
transducer also connected as a system master. To connect to
SeaTalk, you will need an additional SeaTalk Interconnection Kit
(Part No. E25028). When connected in this manner, power can be
provided from the SeaTalk bus (e.g. from the autopilot).
You can also connect the instrument to both the Rotavecta transducer
and SeaTalk. When thus connected, the instrument will be the master
wind instrument for the SeaTalk system.
If it is necessary to fit spade connectors to the transducer cable, do so as
shown in the following illustration. Prepare the cable, as at (a), and fit
the spade connectors, as at (b). When fitting each spade connector,
ensure that wire strands do not extend beyond the rear of the spade
connector insulation.

out the calibration procedures detailed in Chapter 4, Calibration.
21
D4646-1
22ST40 Wind Instrument Owner’s Handbook
Chapter 4: Calibration
Chapter 4: Calibration
4.1 Introduction
The procedures in this Chapter must be carried out before the
equipment is used operationally, to optimise the performance of the
instrument with the vessel.
Calibration information is presented in flow chart form. The flow charts
show the various calibration screens and key presses necessary to carry
out calibration. All key presses are momentary unless otherwise stated.
EMC conformance
• Always check the installation before going to sea to make sure that it
is not affected by radio transmissions, engine starting etc.
4.2 User calibration
User calibration enables you to:
• Set the wind angle and speed response values. Use higher response
values for rapid updates in reasonable weather conditions (for
example, when you are trying to maintain a locked course). Use
lower response values in squally conditions to damp out unstable
readings.
• Set the required wind speed units, either KTS (knots) or M/S (metres
per second).
• Linearise and align the wind transducer.
