2 ST7001+ Autopilot Control Unit - Owner’s Handbook
1 Introduction
Functions with Type 150/150G and 400/400G autopilots
The functions provided with Type 150/150G and Type 400/4000G
autopilots depend on whether the course computer contains an
internal GyroPlus yaw sensor:
Extended systems
You can connect the ST7001+ to other Raymarine SeaTalk
equipment so it can send and receive SeaTalk data:
• it can use wind information from a SeaTalk wind instrument for
Wind Vane steering
• it can use waypoint information from a SeaTalk navigation
instrument to provide track control
• it can use boat speed from a SeaTalk speed instrument to optimize
track-keeping performance
You can also use the ST7001+ autopilot with any navigator
(GPS, Decca, Loran) or wind instrument that transmits National
Marine Electronics Association (NMEA) 0183 data.
The ST7001+ can display SeaTalk and NMEA instrument data in a
user-defined selection of data pages. When you are using the
ST7001+ to repeat instrument data, it shows a ‘pop-up’ pilot page for
5 seconds whenever you make a change in autopilot control.
Compatibility with other autopilots
The ST7001+ is also compatible with Raymarine Type 100 and
Type 300 course computers (see the Appendix for more details).
You can also use it as an additional repeater control unit for any
SeaTalk autopilot system, allowing autopilot control from a
secondary location.
