2.1 OVERVIEW
The Kobelt 6505 compact electronic control head provides a 10-bit digital output, communicated via
CANbus, that is proportional to the handle position. This output is used by Kobelt’s Mighty Mariner
controller to control engine throttle, clutch engagement or propellor pitch. The handle also has three
detent positions; one at TDC plus another two to correspond with clutch activation points in both ahead
and astern. The unit is equipped with a keypad to control Station Select, Station Lock, Throttle Override
and Engine Synchronizer functions.
