Page 5: Chapter 1: Introduction
Chapter 1: Introduction 1.1 Overview Your Raymarine tiller pilot is a totally self-contained autopilot designed for tiller steered sailboats. The autopilot is mounted between the tiller and a single attachment point on the boat’s structure. It is designed for owner installation and is ready for use after connection to the boat’s 12 V electrical system. -
Page 6: Specifications
• SeaTalk compatibility also allows additional fixed and hand-held autopilot control units to be easily connected at secondary steering and control posi- tions The ST1000 Plus and ST2000 Plus tiller pilots can also be used with any navigator transmitting NMEA 0183 or NMEA 0180 data. The tiller pilot can be calibrated to suit each installation to provide maximum performance with many types of boat. -

Page 14: Automatic Deadband Control (Auto Seastate)
You can revert to normal operation by pressing either -1 and +10 or +1 and -10 together again. Automatic deadband control (Auto Seastate) In Auto, WindTrim or Track modes, the tiller pilot is set to AutoSeastate (automatic deadband control) as a default. This causes the pilot to gradually ignore repetitive movements of the boat and respond only to true course variations. -
Page 15: Operating Hints - Trim Changes
Chapter 2: Using the Tiller Pilot To switch back to AutoSeastate, press -1 and +1 again. The autopilot reverts to Automatic Deadband Control each time you select Standby Note: mode. Operating hints – trim changes CAUTION: Only make major course changes when steering MANUALLY. This ensures that the boat will safely clear any obstructions or other boats, and you can take into account the changed wind and sea conditions on the new heading before engaging the autopilot. -

Chapter 2: Using the Tiller Pilot Returning to Auto from Track mode To return to Auto mode from Track mode: • press auto , or • press -10 and +10 together. Cross track error (XTE) Cross track error (XTE) is the distance between your current position and the planned route. -
Page 20: Tidal Stream Compensation
Tidal stream compensation Under most operating conditions, Track mode will hold the selected track to within ±0.05 nm (300 ft) or better. The autopilot takes account of the boat’s speed when computing course changes to ensure optimum performance over a wide range of boat speeds. If speed data is available, the autopilot will use the measured boat speed. -

Page 28: Product Support
3.2 Product support Raymarine products are supported by a worldwide network of distributors and Authorized Service Representatives. Before you consider returning the autopilot, make sure that the power supply cable is sound and that all connections are tight and free from corrosion. - Page 29 Chapter 3: Maintenance & Fault Finding SYMPTOM The autopilot appears to be unstable on Northerly headings in the North- ern hemisphere (or Southerly head- ings in the Southern hemisphere). Display shows ‘CAL OFF’ when enter- ing calibration. The autopilot will not ‘talk’ to other SeaTalk instruments.

Questions and answers
Does Raymarine st2000+ tiller autopilot stay on compass settings at low speeds?
Yes, the Raymarine ST2000+ tiller autopilot maintains compass settings at low speeds. During compass calibration, the boat must turn in slow circles at speeds below 2 knots, ensuring accurate deviation detection and heading alignment.
