9.2.2 Step 2 – Set throttle Limits
In this step you will configure:
• the maximum throttle percent at which the engines are at idle and
• the maximum throttle percent intended for joystick use.
Perform this step with the boat safely secured, or in an open area.
If you are having problems getting an engine to idle, or if it is idling
intermittently at different RPMs, confirm that your engine's throttle
position sensor (TPS) is functioning properly.
1. Go to dealer menu > Initial Setup > joystick > Set throttle Limits.
On the menu you'll be given options for both port and starboard
throttle limits.
2. Enter the Port Throttle Limits menu. At the top of the display are
two feedback items that will show the current throttle position
and the current engine RPM.
Figure 9-6.
3. Use the control lever to put the port engine in forward gear and
very slowly increase the throttle. Watch the feedback display and
note the maximum Port Throttle Position at which the engine is
still at idle.
4. Select port Idle fwd throttle and use the + and – buttons to
adjust the value to match the maximum Port Throttle Position
you noted in step 3.
