NOTE: The active light on the remote control will be illuminated at
the helm that is in control of the engine.
The helm transfer function allows the boat operator to select which
helm is in control of engine operation. Pressing the throttle only/
station select button two times allows engine control to be
transferred to a new helm. When a helm transfer is initiated, the
control will automatically start adjusting engine RPM and gear
position to match the control handle setting at the new helm. Adjust
the control handles to the desired throttle and gear position.
NOTE: There is a 10 second time frame to complete a helm
transfer. If the helm transfer is not completed, the action will be
cancelled and a double beep will sound. Pressing the throttle only/
station select button again will re-initiate a helm transfer.

Synchronizing Helms Prior To Helm Transfer
Pressing the throttle only/station select button one time allows the
boat operator 10 seconds to match up the control handle setting
at the new station with the handle setting that is at the old (to be
inactive) station. If the handle is not matched, the neutral light will
flash. The light blinks faster as the handle is nearing match
position. Once the light stays on continuously, the handle is
matched and the throttle only/station select button can be pressed
again to complete the transfer. This completes the transfer
process, and give control to the new station. If the helm transfer is
not completed within 10 seconds, the helm transfer is cancelled.
