5.2.2
Adaptive Cruising Favorite setpoint
As you operate your boat and adjust the trim settings the system stores the latest
stable setting as an Adaptive Cruising Favorite setpoint. A stable setting is one that
is maintained for twenty seconds while Holeshot mode is activated and the engine
RPM or speed over ground meets a preset minimum. The system status indicator
will flash cyan when the system has memorized a favorite position.
The Adaptive Cruising Favorite setpoint is used by the Holeshot mode, and is only
available in systems in which Holeshot mode is enabled by the builder/dealer.
5.2.3
Holeshot mode
NOTE: Holeshot mode prerequisites
• Holeshot mode requires an engine gear signal and either an engine
RPM or GPS speed-over-ground source.
• If your boat is equipped with Optimus Electronic Power Steering
(EPS), or has an NMEA2000 network with an engine gateway, you
will likely have the engine gear and RPM signal, and you may have an
SOG source.
Holeshot mode is a semi-automatic mode designed to get your boat up on plane
quickly, with a minimum of operator involvement. It allows you to keep your focus
on the water ahead of you and the safe operation of your boat.
When activated, Holeshot mode simplifies getting on plane. It will automatically
deploy the trim tabs when it detects a Holeshot (a minimum engine RPM is
reached), then retract them to the Adaptive Cruising Favorite setpoint as speed
increases and the boat gets on plane.
To perform a Holeshot:
Trim your outboard or sterndrive as you normally would for launch.
Press the Favorite button (fig.
✓ The system status indicator (fig.
green. Magenta indicates that SOG is used to control deployment, while lime
green indicates RPM is used.
Increase throttle to your normal launch RPM.
✓ The Adaptive Trim Tab System manages tab deployment to get you up on
lane quickly.
Manually adjust engine trim and trim tabs as necessary for the conditions.
