OPERATION MM9000 ClearCommand User Manual Operation Operation DC Power On When DC power is turned ON to the Processor: • A short steady tone, followed by an intermittent tone, will sound at all Remote Stations indicating that no station has command.
OPERATION MM9000 ClearCommand User Manual Operation Basic Operation 2.3.1 Normal Operating Mode A The Control Head has three detents; Ahead, Astern and Neutral. B With the Control Head lever positioned in the Neutral (vertical) detent, the Processor will command Neutral and the throttle at Idle revolutions per minute (RPM).
OPERATION MM9000 ClearCommand User Manual Operation D Further movement through the selectable 25, 35, 45, or 55 degrees, will increase the clutch pressure to maximum while the throttle remains at Idle. Further movement through the next 40, 30, 20, or 10 degrees will increase throttle to full, except when 45 degrees is selected (where throttle is limited to 75% of full) and 55 degrees is selected (where throttle is limited to 10% of full).
OPERATION MM9000 ClearCommand User Manual Operation Station Transfer WARNING: Personal Injury may result if this message is disregarded. Command can be transferred as follows: A The Station-in-Command’s lever(s) may be left in any position. B Place the Control Head’s lever(s) of the receiving Station in the Neutral/Idle detent position (refer to...
OPERATION MM9000 ClearCommand User Manual Operation Warm-up Mode This feature allows the operator to increase the engine’s RPM, while the Clutch remains in Neutral. Warm-Up Mode is operational only when the Control Head lever is moved in the Ahead direction.
OPERATION MM9000 ClearCommand User Manual Operation High/Low Idle The Control System provides the input to the engine, so that it may run at the standard Idle speed (typically adjusted at the governor or carburetor), or it can provide a second elevated Idle speed.
OPERATION MM9000 ClearCommand User Manual Operation One Lever Mode (Twin Screw) NOTE: One Lever Operation may be used in Troll Mode or in Non-Troll Mode. NOTE: The Green LED will always be lit while in One Lever Operation, no matter what position the Master Control Head lever is in.
OPERATION MM9000 ClearCommand User Manual Operation • The Control Head lever which was left in the Ahead detent is now inactive. Figure 2-13: Step B) One Lever Operation Mode NOTE: The Control Head lever designated by the operator to be inactive in One Lever Operation, may be left in the Ahead detent or moved fully forward.
OPERATION MM9000 ClearCommand User Manual Operation 2.10 Engine Synchronization (Twin Screw) Engine Synchronization must be selected during Set Up to have automatic synchronization. NOTE: The Control System offers two types of synchronization, Active or Equal Throttle. Synchronization is automatic and only operates when the Ahead clutch is engaged, consequently it can be left ON full time.
Page 36
OPERATION MM9000 ClearCommand User Manual Operation NOTE: In order for Equal Throttle Synchronization to work properly in Systems with mechanical Throttles, the bends in the push-pull cables must be kept to a minimum. There can be no back-lash in the linkage or cables.
OPERATION MM9000 ClearCommand User Manual Operation 2.11 Control System’s Configurability The Processor is designed in a way which allows it to be easily configured by the installer to meet the varying needs of a wide variety of vessels. Below you will find a list and a brief description of the groups of these functions.

3%. Refer to ABYC E-9. It is recommended by ZF Marine Propulsion Systems Miramar that an Automatic Power Selector (APS) and a second power source be used. Refer to S-214 Automatic Power Selector Model: 13505 and Section 7.2 Power Cable.
APPENDIX A - SYSTEM COMPONENTS AND SPECIFICATIONS MMC-343 Station Expander User Instructions Figure MMC-343-2: Station Expander Harness Connector Locations The Harnesses use one or both of the plug connector types detailed in Figure MMC-343-3: Harness Plug Connectors. When connecting the plugs, ensure that the release button or buttons are depressed and held until plug is fully connected or disconnected.
APPENDIX A - SYSTEM COMPONENTS AND SPECIFICATIONS MMC-343 Station Expander User Instructions MMC-343: 7 Installation Before starting the actual installation of the Station Expander, make sure you have the correct parts and tools. See section MMC-343: 6 Tools For Installation. Read ALL the instructions pertinent to each part before beginning the installation of that part NOTE: When connecting the plugs, ensure that the release buttons are depressed and held until plug is fully connected.
It is critical to design and wire the Control System in a manner where the chance of losing power to the Control System is kept to a minimum. ZF Marine Propulsion Systems Miramar recommends that two power sources are utilized along with the APS see document S-214 Automatic Power Selector Model: 13505 for more information.
