FEATURES AND CONTROLS
Some fault codes may appear on the Mercury‑approved multifunction display if
other control or navigation functions are attempted after the helm transfer
procedure is started. To remove the fault codes it may be necessary to cycle
the key switch OFF and ON, and then restart the helm transfer procedure.
Ensure that other control and navigation inputs are performed after the helm
transfer is complete to avoid setting fault codes.
The ERC levers must be in neutral to perform a helm transfer. While in
neutral your vessel could drift and collide with objects nearby resulting in
damage. Keep an adequate look out while performing the helm transfer.
To avoid damage, use extra care when attempting a helm transfer while the
vessel is close to docks, piers, or other fixed items or when near other vessels.
TRANSFER LIGHT AND SINGLE-HELM BOATS
IMPORTANT: On boats with a single‑helm, the TRANSFER light is constantly
ON, whenever the ignition key switch is ON. This is normal.
REQUESTING HELM TRANSFER
NOTE: Any movement of the joystick (if equipped) or ERC levers
after pressing the transfer button terminates the helm transfer
request. A single beep sounds and the transfer button light turns off
signaling the end of the transfer request.
To request the transfer of vessel control from one helm to another:
1. All of the ignition keys must be in the ON position.
2. All of the vessel's ERC levers must be in the neutral position.
3. At the helm you are requesting to be made active, press the TRANSFER
button once. The transfer light turns on and one beep will sound
confirming the impending transfer.
NOTE: If all ERC levers are not in neutral, the neutral lights will flash. Move all
ERC levers to neutral and the neutral light will stop flashing.
4. With the transfer light and neutral light on, press the TRANSFER button a
second time to complete the helm transfer.
5. When the helm transfer is complete, another beep sounds. The transfer
light stays on at the active helm location.
