2.
Press the enter button to activate the selection.
a.
Enable or disable the element feature
b.
Minimize will hide troll data and display TROLL in the system tray. This allows the operator to display information from
other selected icons.

The set‑point adjustment selection field will be the default location at troll start‑up. After the operator makes adjustments to
the desired settings, press on the enable/disable selection in the footer area of the contextual data area.

When the selection box is outside the footer navigation area (set‑point field), the operator only needs to change the
RPM or speed numbers. There is no need to press enter to engage the new setting.

• If an autopilot popup warning occurs or the operator uses the autopilot CAN track pad, autopilot contextual data
will automatically fill the contextual data area. The operator will have to minimize to hide the popup data.

When exit is selected while displaying troll element and the operator presses enter, the troll feature will be disabled. The

Autopilot Screens

Autopilot Screens Overview

VesselView is a display extension for autopilot features and joystick operations. All functionality of these piloting features are
controlled through the Mercury Marine autopilot control area network (CAN) pad. VesselView will show if the mode is active or
in standby; popups will appear as the vessel arrives at a waypoint asking to acknowledge the turn, and display information on
how to adjust the engine and drives to achieve maximum efficiency.
Pressing any button on the autopilot CAN track pad, will cause VesselView to default to displaying the autopilot screen.
Autopilot will be actively displayed when this feature is turned on. All modes and functions are controlled with the CAN pad.
