Example 1
Make the primary action move first and then adjust the boat motion
with a secondary joystick motion. Example: the boat is parallel to the
dock and you wish to move the boat against the dock. This is like
parallel parking a car.
1.
Move the boat forward or backward with direct forward or
backward joystick motions until the boat is stopped and centered
in the location on the dock you wish to approach.
2.
Return the joystick to the center position.

6. There is a momentary shift delay built into the system when
returning from any gear activity to neutral. This allows bumping
the handle to get a little more motion in the same direction
without causing excessive engine shifting. This delay is removed
if the action passes the home area in the opposite direction so
you can stop the boat immediately if needed.
7.
The control head must be active at the helm station with the
joystick that will be used and the control handles must be in
neutral and idle at that station.
