FEATURES AND CONTROLS
Electronic Remote Control (ERC)
Electric steering requires a Digital Throttle and Shift (DTS) electronic remote
control (ERC). Because it is electronic, an ERC is capable of several features
beyond the basic remote control functions of throttle and shift. These additional
features are described in Digital Throttle and Shift (DTS) Features.
There are several DTS ERCs that can be used with electric steering,
depending on the number of engines and the desired features. The following
images show the current Mercury ERCs that will function with electric steering.
