System Set Up:
system will sense the acceleration
and use this information to orient
itself to the boat. Approximately 10
seconds after the Orientation process
has been completed, the flashing
FAV1 and FAV2 lights will stop
flashing, indicating that the system
has been oriented. After the system
has been oriented, the rest, idle and
planning angles can be set up.

Angle Set-up

The ATP system will evaluate the
vessel's pitch angle to determine the
mode the boat is operating in. In order
to properly measure the pitch and roll
attitude of the boat, the ATP Control
Unit must be oriented to the boat.

Angle Set-up
1. Idle Angle Set-up
The idle angle is used to determine
that the vessel is in a slow moving
state. Trim tabs should be fully
retracted any time the vessel is
moving at idle speed as trim tabs
will have no effect without water
pressure against them. The idle
angle should be set in calm water
with the trim tabs fully retracted, and
the vessel idling at a fast idle speed,
usually about 1500rpm-2000rpm.
The boat should be throwing a wake
no larger than what would be
acceptable in a NO WAKE zone. To
set the idle angle, get the boat
moving at an appropriate idle speed,
run the boat at this speed for 10-15
seconds to allow the boat to settle
into a steady running attitude. After
settling, press and hold the moon
button and the FAV1 button at the
same time for at least 5 seconds (or
longer which will calculate the
average measurement during that
span of time).
Once the buttons are released, the
system will flash all four corner
LEDs to indicate that a setting has
been made.
