1.1 PCB Changes
When a PCB is changed, it may be necessary to set the new PCB to the
required pilot type, ST4000+ Wheel, ST4000+ Tiller or ST4000+ Tiller GP
1. If the instrument is disassembled, fit the reflector, diffuser, elastomers,
LCD and surround to the PCB
2. Apply 12V power to the instrument/PCB assembly
3. Press and hold STDBY for 14 seconds until CAL ? is displayed
4. Momentarily press +1 and -1 together to gain access to extended
calibration (dealer set - up)
5. Advance from the CAL LOCK page to the pilot type page by pressing
DISP
6. Use the +1 and -1 buttons to set the pilot type as required, 4000 WHL
(wheel) or 4000 TILL (tiller)
7. Press STDBY to exit extended calibration
8. Switch off the power supply. Do not disconnect
9. When the pilot is fully powered down, switch the power on again
10.Check that the required pilot type is momentarily displayed before
STANDBY is entered. If not, repeat the set - up procedure. In the case of
a second failure, change the PCB.

ST4000+ Autopilots Service Manual 83115-1 9
Chapter 2. Fluxgate Compass Transducer
2.1 Functional test
Disconnect the Fluxgate from the Autopilot and check continuity as follows:
Cable colour Connector pin number Resistance
Screen to blue 2/4 < 10 ohms
Red to green 3/5 < 5 ohms
Red to yellow 3/6 < 5 ohms
Red to screen 3/2 Open circuit
2.2 Magnetic deviation
The Fluxgate Compass requires careful siting if optimum Autopilot
performance is to be acheived. The SeaTalk electronics is able to correct the
compass for most deviating magnetic fields present when the linearisation
procedure is carried out. Any further deviation, introduced after linearisation,
will introduce an error between the Fluxgate and the ship’s compass. This
can be removed by carrying out the linearisation again. If the displayed
deviation is greater than +/– 15 degrees the Fluxgate should be resited.
Note: The linearisation procedure should always be carried out if the
Fluxgate has been exchanged, removed or moved from its original mounting
position.

drive ring (1). Push down and around the drive ring (1) to progressively
snap the drive ring (1) over the remaining rollers (18).
3. Spin the drive ring (1) in both directions, two or three times, too ensure
the assembly is fully seated and free running.

3.3 Setting Belt Tension
The purpose of the belt tensioning procedure is to ensure that:
1. The belt is sufficiently tight to transmit the normal maximum drive
torques.
2. The belt is not over-tightened, as this will increase the backdrive load to a
level where it can be felt on the vessel’s wheel.

Procedure
1. Screw the drive ring clamp to the front ring. Use the group of two holes on
their own, not two holes in a group of four. Screw the torque restraint pin
into the back mounting plate
2. Connect the motor to the motor drive box, using an in - line ammeter (0 -
10 amps) to measure current
3. Connect the motor drive box to a 12V battery. The drive box provides a
regulated 10.5V supply to the motor
4. Engage the drive unit clutch
5. Use the eccentric adjuster to loosen (anti - clockwise) the locking nut and
allow the eccentric to move to the minimum tension position
6. Switch on the drive to the motor and, using a 1.5mm Allen key, rotate the
eccentric anticlockwise (as viewed from above) to increase belt tension
until the belt just stops slipping (motor stalled)
7. Check that the motor current is approximately 6.5 amps
8. Tighten the locking nut, apply Loctite to retain the setting and switch off
the motor drive.

Tiller Drive Actuator GP conversion kit (W003)
This GP conversion kit (W003) gives the option of converting the ST4000+
which has the power to helm boats of up to 6,500 kg (14,300 lbs)
displacement, to the ST4000+ GP which would push the limit up to 9,000 kg
(20,000 lbs) displacement.
