Controllable
Critical
A critical fault will prevent normal operation and result in the system entering a failed state.
The control will:
• send "not available" data in the throttle and gear messages
• deactivate NEUTRAL Throttle Warm-Up mode
• send the fault message and/or alarm
• store the fault in memory
• flash the appropriate control head LED(s) five times per second
• When the control detects that the outboard is in NEUTRAL idle and the working lever is in
NEUTRAL, the system returns to normal operation.
