Response Button; Track Waypoint; Engaging Track Waypoint Mode - Mercury MerCruiser Owner's Manual

Response Button

1. Press the "RESPONSE" button to change the how hard the selected Axius Premier
program tries to keep the boat in position in the various modes.
2. Press the "RESPONSE" button again to change the gain further. Each time you press
the "RESPONSE" button, the button light blinks to indicate the gain setting for that
mode. The initial button press shows the current setting value. Additional button
presses increase the gain in steps up to three and then return to one.
3. The response level indication will appear on the Auto Heading page in VesselView.

Track Waypoint

In some Precision Pilot modes—"Auto Heading," "Track Waypoint," and "Waypoint
Sequence"—the boat navigates a preset course. The boat does not automatically
respond to hazards such as other watercraft, obstacles, swimmers, or underwater terrain.
Collision with these hazards could cause boat damage, serious injury, or death. The
operator must stay at the helm, ready to evade hazards and warn others of course
changes.
IMPORTANT: Track Waypoint can only be used with chart plotters approved by CMD.
Track Waypoint allows the boat to automatically navigate to a specific waypoint or
sequence of waypoints, called a waypoint route. Waypoint data needs to be provided to
VesselView by a third party chart plotter. Refer to your chart plotter's user manual for
details.

ENGAGING TRACK WAYPOINT MODE

To engage the Track Waypoint mode of Axius Premier:
1. Turn on the chart plotter and select a single waypoint or waypoint route to be tracked.
