Raymarine ST60+ Tridata - alarms won't adjust.

[[3889]]

I cannot adust any of the depth alarms on my Tridata...I have in the past.
The alarm lock in level 2 calibration is off and I've tried a factory reset in Dealer calibration but the shallow alarm (the one that matters to me) is stuck at 3m, even after applying factory settings. I can turn it on and off but cannot adjust the value...when I try by pressing reset and trip I just get a double bleep. All other aspects of my setup...wind, Pilot, speed etc. work fine.
Any ideas?

One suggestion;- is the instrument shown as master, i.e. "yes", in the Intermediate Calibration mode?

+1 the master is the only one that is allowed to adjust settings.

Thanks, but it is set at master. Anyone know if a DIY firmware upgrade is possible? Mine's showing ver 1.0.
Another anomoly I've just noticed - on the 'lock alarm' calibration screen the word LOC doesn't appear though it does in the manual. AFAICR , this used to show on my instrument.

Did you find a solution as I too have this exact problem. I cannot set the depth alarm, it is stuck at 3m.

Had a similar problem with a ST60+ Tridata last year: although in normal use everything worked and displayed, you could not get to any of the calibration screens to adjust alarms, depth offset etc. Raymarine offered me a small discount on a new 150 Tridata.

Service Centre at Wareham fixed ST60+ for me: they replaced some parts, said water ingress had damaged part of the circuit. Not cheap but a quarter of the price of the i50 alternative. Works properly now.

Rats, I called Raymarine a couple of minutes ago and they didn’t know of this problem so it sounds like a fault.
