II. AUTOMATIC OPERATIONAL MODES
There are three (3) AUTOMATIC OPERATIONAL MODES that the Auto Glide uses to make all of the automatic boat
control decisions. These AUTOMATIC OPERATIONAL MODES are:
A. IDLE MODE
B. HOLE SHOT MODE
C. PLANING MODE
These three AUTOMATIC OPERATIONAL MODES
use the Engine and GPS CANBUS DATA plus the HOME ROLL
AND PITCH POSITIONS to decide how and when to move the trim tabs to correct the position of the boat.
A. IDLE MODE:
The primary objective of IDLE MODE is to limit the movement of the trim tabs during idle conditions which would
include situations such as maneuvering the boat within a marina or boat launch area.
1. ENTERING IDLE MODE:
The Auto Glide will transition into IDLE MODE when the boat’s motor(s) is started
and the Auto Glide sees 400 RPMs or greater from the CANBUS data. The AUTO SETTING button will
illuminate on the Key Pad to indicate the Auto Glide is in an automatic mode.
The following illustrations outline the sequence of LED indicator flashes as the Auto Glide transitions into
IDLE MODE when you start the motor(s).
