8.3 Control Head Setup

The Yanmar control head has several configurable parameters, as
shown in figure 8-4 below. The default settings will generally provide
excellent performance for most boats.
To Access the parameters, navigate to dealer menu > Settings >
Shift & throttle on your CANtrak display.
Figure 8-4. Control head setup.
This feature prevents accidental switching between control stations on
multi-station boats by requiring a specific sequence of button presses
on the control head. The Optimus 360 User's Manual (Book 61) has
more information about this feature.
Controls the throttle behavior when the Power Train Sync (PTS) feature
of the control head is engaged. When set to Yes the control system
will use tachometer feedback to match engine speeds. When set to
No the system will simply match the throttle command. If you find the
engine RPMs oscillate in PTS mode change this parameter to No.
Sets the maximum RPM at which a gear shift will be attempted by
the control head. It is designed to delay a shift until engine RPM
reaches a safe shifting speed.
There are two throttle curves that control the response characteristics
when the control lever is at or near idle. Curve 1 is the default curve,
and is suitable for most applications. Curve 2 requires more lever
travel before throttle is increased.
Sets the maximum percentage of wide open throttle when trolling mode
is engaged. A forward setting of 50% means that when the throttle
lever is fully forward the throttle is limited to 50% of maximum. This
provides greater throttle sensitivity when moving at slow speeds.
