Connecting the instrument

Introduction

The ST60 Rudder Angle Indicator instrument can be connected:
• To the transducer as a stand-alone instrument.
• To SeaTalk.

Instruments connected to SeaTalk derive their power directly from SeaTalk and no
separate power connection is necessary. Where a SeaTalk system includes an
autopilot, the power for the system is provided by the autopilot.

A range of Raymarine SeaTalk extension cables is available to connect separated
instruments. These cables are supplied with a SeaTalk connector fitted to each
end. A junction box can be used to join cables.
