Electronic Helm Steering
The Electronic Helm Steering is a true drive‑by‑wire system that controls the steering
through electronic signals. The feel of the steering is created by computer‑designated
resistance.
We recommend that you drive carefully until you have a chance to explore the Zeus
system's handling characteristics in an open area without obstructions or other boat
traffic, and you are familiar with the boat's responses. The first few maneuvers at speed
can be more abrupt than expected.
Dual‑Handle Electronic Remote Control (ERC)—Features and Operation
OPERATION
The electronic remote control (ERC) handle controls the operation of shift and throttle. Push
the control handle forward from neutral to the first detent for forward gear. Continue pushing
the handle forward to increase speed. Pull the control handle from the forward position to
the neutral position to decrease speed and eventually stop. Pull the control handle back
from neutral to the first detent for reverse gear. Continue pulling the handle back to increase
speed in reverse.
NOTE: In certain modes, gear position is determined by the position of the shift valves on
the transmission, not the position of the ERC levers. When using the joystick or while in
Skyhook, the computer moves the transmission in and out of gear even though the handles
are in neutral.

The amount of force needed to move the ERC handles and to move the ERC handles
through the detents is adjustable to help prevent unwanted motion of the handle in rough
water.
To adjust the ERC handle detent tension:
1. Remove the side cover of the handle needing adjustment.
