Once installation of the XPT System is complete, use the EIC to bleed the system by holding down the "BOW DOWN" position for
15 seconds, then "BOW UP" for 15-20 seconds. Repeat 3 times. This will purge air from the system. Then place both tabs in the "full
down" position and check all hydraulic connections for leaks. Bring the tabs to the full UP position and check the fluid level. Add ATF if
necessary. Also check for leaks in the "UP" position.
Calibration
— NOTE: Calibration must be done at the Lower Helm EIC Display

2.
Press and hold the "sun" and "moon" buttons on the Lower Helm EIC Display
simultaneously for approximately 3 seconds. Both the port and starboard lower
will begin to flash. Release the "sun" and "moon" buttons.
3.
Using the Lower Helm EIC Display, run both trim tabs to the full down position
(BOW DOWN on the control). Make sure the tabs go all the way DOWN by holding the buttons
for at least 15 seconds. (Holding the buttons after the tabs are down will not harm the system).
A few seconds after the tabs are all the way down, the port and starboard upper

Operation
The intensity of the display LEDs may be adjusted by pressing the "sun" button to brighten and the "moon" button to dim the display.

reading should be in the 220-260 Ohm range. If the sensor readings are good, check for faulty connections (corrosion or broken wires).
