Set Pitch Control To On Or Off; Low Speed Pitch Control - LENCO Pro Control Operator's Manual

16 Sea Trial Commissioning

2. Set Pitch Control to ON or OFF.

a. When the Pitch Control is set to OFF the Commissioning
process is exited, and all the LEDs will be off in the next two
menus (3 and 4).
b. Pressing the ALL UP button on the dial face will turn OFF pitch
control. No right LED will be lit.
c. Pressing the ALL DOWN button on the dial face will turn ON
pitch control and a single right hand LED will illuminate.
d. Rotate dial counterclockwise to next menu for third LED on the
left side of the dial.
The following two settings setup your boat's on-plane pitch control.
WARNING: On power up actuator will attemp to home and retract fully, ensure trim tabs are
clear from any obstructions or personnel to prevent injury:
To prepare for first launch with new system, plan an on-water location to commission the
system with enough area to complete circles and high speed runs, with relatively smooth water
(1 foot or less of water chop is preferred). Note: On first time power up Pro Control Auto will be
in a commisioning mode with lights flashing fast in sync!
The following two steps must be completed on open water with less than
1' of wave chop. Running the boat in a straight line over a reasonable
distance, 3/4 mile or more. The sea state should be consistent throughout
this commissioning, e.g. the boat must not porpoise.
Boat should be loaded and weighted in the same manner as expected
normal use for best outcome: fuel; number of people; gear; etc....

3. Low speed pitch control.

This step in the commissioning process captures the lowest speed
at which the vessel is expected to plane. The objective of this step
is to gradually ramp up speed by applying throttle until the bow rises
to its peak and begins to fall. This will be indicated by blinking LED's
on the keypad and captured by pressing the DIM ( ) button.
a. Prior to getting underway use the ALL UP/DOWN buttons on
the dial face to set the actuator extension to 50%, represented
by five LEDs on the right side of the dial lit.
• Only the LEDs on the right hand side of the dial will light up
and represent actuator extension of both actuators.
• The two lower DOWN and two lower UP buttons below the dial
are locked out.
• Keep in mind, if you return the throttle speed control back to
neutral, the TABs will auto retract.
b. Slowly increase vessel speed until all LEDs blink.
c. If the LEDs stop blinking you can slow back down gradually to
reengage the pitch control. The LEDs will begin to blink again.
d. Maintain your boat's speed so that the dial LEDs consistently blink.
e. Wait 5-10 seconds with consistent blinking, if possible, before pressing
the DIM ( ) button, storing the target (best practice).
f. Press and hold DIM ( ) button 1 second to store the slow pitch control
target, both Left and Right-side LEDs will flash three times. The left side
LEDs will return to steady state lit. This indicates that the slow pitch
control has been stored.
