Sync

The Axius system features Sync, an automatic engine synchronization feature, which engages automatically at key‑up. Sync
monitors the position of both levers. If both levers are within 10% of one another, the port engine synchronizes to the starboard
engine's RPM. The smartcraft system will automatically disengage Sync at the last 10% of lever range to allow each engine the
ability to reach maximum available RPM. Sync cannot engage until its minimum RPM is met.
VesselView shows an orange icon if the engines exceed a 10% difference in RPM of each other, and the icon turns red when they
synchronize. The icon turns off when Sync is off.
To disengage Sync mode:
1.
Place the ERC levers in any detent.
2.
Press the "SYNC" button.
To re‑engage Sync mode, press the "SYNC" button.

Axius Plus CAN Control Pad (If Equipped)

General Information

Axius Plus CAN Control Pad functions are controlled through the Axius trackpad only.
Axius Plus CAN Control Pad screens, when accessed by the trackpad, appear on the VesselView for three seconds unless
calibrated otherwise.
Pressing any button on VesselView dismisses the Axius Plus CAN Control Pad screen from the VesselView screen, unless
the screen was chosen from the VesselView environment menu.

the functions of Axius track pad.
The following information shows the location and explains the function of the Axius track pad lights and buttons.

Heading Adjustment and Override

When Auto Heading is engaged, the steering wheel feels locked into a detent . Approximately 3.4–4.5 kg (8–10 lb.) of force are
required to overcome this detent. Manually overcoming the steering wheel's detent force automatically puts Axius CAN into standby
mode.
1.
When Auto Heading is engaged the "TURN" buttons provide a 10° course correction for each press to the port or starboard.
2.
The joystick provides a 1° course correction for each press to the port or starboard.
