NOTE: Engine RPM and available power will be proportionately reduced throughout the throttle lever range.
Dock button and light
To disengage dock mode:
1. Bring both ERC levers to any detent or neutral.
NOTE: Dock mode disengages only when the levers are moved into a detent.
2.
Press DOCK. The dock light turns off.
Throttle-Only Mode
Moving the joystick whenever the engines are running and the ERC levers are in the neutral position will command the boat to
move. Throttle‑only mode should be used to disable the joystick if the captain is not in command at the helm. Placing
the ERC in throttle‑only mode will avoid unintended gear engagement. The drives will turn using the steering wheel or the
joystick and the RPM of the engines can be increased while in throttle‑only mode, but the gear position will remain in neutral.
Throttle-only button and light
To engage throttle‑only mode:
1. Place both ERC levers into neutral.
2.
Press THROTTLE ONLY on the DTS trackpad. The throttle‑only light will turn on and the neutral lights will blink.
3. Place either ERC lever into forward or reverse detent position. The warning horn will beep each time the levers are moved
into or out of gear while in throttle‑only mode, but the drive will remain in neutral.
NOTE: Throttle‑only mode also affects the joystick. The drives will move and the RPM can be increased, but the gear
position will remain in neutral.
4. The RPM of the engines can be increased.
To disengage throttle‑only mode:
1. Place both ERC levers into neutral. Throttle‑only mode will not disengage unless the ERC levers are in neutral.
NOTE: Pressing
THROTTLE ONLY
while the ERC levers are in gear will only turn off the throttle‑only light. The engines
will remain in throttle‑only mode until the operator returns the levers to the neutral position.
2.
Press THROTTLE ONLY. The throttle‑only light will turn off.
3. The neutral lights stop flashing and remain illuminated. Either the ERC levers or the joystick can now be used to control the
boat's movement.
