Using data pages to set up ST60 and ST80 remote
control
Where the ST7001+ is used in conjunction with ST60 or ST80
instrumentation, you can use the ST7001+ to control the ST60 or
ST80 instruments by duplicating the functions of the Remote
Keypads used by these instruments. This means you can operate your
autopilot and ST60/ST80 instruments from the same location.
By using the
INST REM and MAXI REM data pages, you can use
ST7001+ as a remote keypad to control any ST60 or ST80
instruments connected to it:
the
INST REM data page can control a standard (110 mm)
ST60/ST80 instrument group
the MAXI REM data page can control an ST80 Maxiview
instrument group
Each ST7001+ can control one group of up to eight standard
instruments and another group of up to eight Maxiview instruments.
Before you can use an ST7001+ to remotely control other
instruments, you must define the instrument grouping and then
allocate the ST7001+ to the required group.
Instrument grouping
Grouping allows you to create up to eight standard instrument and
eight Maxiview instrument groups:
each group can have up to eight instruments
each group must have one or more remote keypads or an
ST7001+ grouped to it
each ST7001+ can be grouped with one ST80 Maxiview group
and one ST80/ST60 standard instrument group
each instrument in a group has a unique alphanumeric identity
(e.g.
A1, where A defines the group and 1 the instrument sequence
number within the group):
standard ST60 or ST80 instruments are assigned group letters
from A to H
maxiview instruments are assigned group letters from J to Q
ungrouped instruments have a dash (-) in place of a group
letter
The instrument sequence number range is from 1 to 8.
