Position 1
The ATP Helm Control allows
for the user to set two different
favorite positions. These positions
are a combination of pitch and
roll attitudes that the user feels
are comfortable or useful running
attitudes for the boat.
One favorite position may be set
such that the boat's roll attitude
is level and the pitch attitude is
relatively flat. This is a normal
operating condition. In automatic
mode, the ATP will operate the trim
tabs to attempt to maintain this
attitude as speed, engine RPM and
weight distribution changes occur. A
second favorite position may be set
with the port bow high to minimize
spray in windy conditions
for example.
"FAV 1" Button: Pressing will
activate the first stored favorite
position. Pressing any manual

Setting a Favorite
Position (FAV1 or FAV2)
To enter AUTO mode, the user
must first set the favorite position.
To set the favorite position:
1. The user will manually adjust the
trim tabs, throttle, and engine trim
to attain the desired boat attitude.
2. After the desired attitude is set,
the user will press and hold the
FAV1 or FAV2 button to store
the position. The FAV1 or FAV2
button must be pressed for at
least three seconds to record the
position. If the FAV1 or FAV2
buttons are pressed and held
longer, the system will continue
to monitor the boat's attitude
during the time that the button is
held then take an average of the
position during that time. This is
useful when the conditions are
somewhat rough and the vessel
is moving around during the
time that the position is
being set.
