Smart Tow Mode

Smart Tow

Smart Tow is based on the engine RPM unless the vessel has a GPS installed and connected to the control area network.
When the vessel contains a GPS, you can select either speed targets or engine RPM targets for Smart Tow control options.
You can also create custom launch profiles.

Smart Tow Targets

Smart Tow will modify the constant data area by incorporating RPM and overshoot indicators within the RPM sweeps. The
RPM set point target will be the color orange and the overshoot scale will be the color white.
