    1-2 Basic Theory of O perationThe MicroCommander Marine Propulsion Contr ol System (hereafter referred to as M icroCommander orSystem) is designed for pleasure and li ght commercial marine vessels that require remote control ofmechanically actuated engines and reverse reduction gears.

    The System is electronic and requires a 12 or 24 VDC power supply, one Processor per engine/gear andone Control Head per remote station.

    The M icroCommander commands the vessels throttl e and shif t using a single Control H ead l ever.

    The Processor i s typically mounted in the engine room area and is connected mechanicall y to the vesselsmain engine throttle and transmission w it h standard 33C type push-pull cables.

    One wire harness/electric cable per Control Head lever connects the remote station(s) to the Processor(s).Only one remote station w il l have command at a given time and the Station-in -Command i s indicated by ared li ght located on the Contr ol Head. Station tr ansfer is accompli shed by pressing the Contr ol Headmounted transfer button.

    1-2.1 9110X Processor (Throttle - Servo, Shift - Servo, X = Number of Remote Station Pigtails)

    The System i s designed for pleasure and li ght commercial m arine vessels that requir e remotecontrol of:

    servo engine governors

    servo activated clutches

    that the Station has taken command. The red LED indicator li ght wi ll go OFF at the transferr ing Stations Control H ead, indi catin g

    that the Station no longer is in command.

    D) The commanded positi ons of the Throttle and Clutch w ill remain unchanged for one secondafter t he red LED l ights. This allows the operator ti me to move the Control Heads lever(s) to a

    position approximately matching the last Station, which will allow the vessel to maintainpresent speed and direction.

    2-6 Em ergency Reversal Protection (ProportionalPause)

    The proport ional pause provi des a means of safely reversing the vessels dir ection. A var iable pause isin troduced into t he clutch command signal to all ow ti me for the engine RPM s to drop to Idle and for t hevessels speed through the water to slow.

    2 OPERATION

    Page 2 -6

    The system supports a mode of operation referred to as One Lever Mode.

    One Lever M ode all ows the operator to control tw o to fi ve engines and transmissions wi th a single ControlHead lever. Any of the Control Head levers at any Remote Station can be designated by the operator as

    the Masterlever.

    The designation can be changed by the operator at any time. M ost of t he features (synchr onization, t roll ,etc.) available in norm al operation are available whi le operating in One Lever M ode.

    The Processor defaults to One Lever M ode disabled.

    One Lever M ode can be disabled or enabled in the Set Up Procedures.

    When One Lever M ode is enabled, the operation must be turned ON and OFF as describedbelow.

    2-9.1 Turning ON One Lever Operation

    A) At the Station-in-Command, move all the Control Head levers to the Ahead detent.

    B) Depress and Holdthe transfer button whilemoving one of the Control H ead levers forw ard, outof t he Ahead detent. Do Not Release the Transfer Buttonuntil the green LED turns ON,indicating One Lever Operation i s now active.

    The Control H ead lever wh ich the operator chose to move out of the Ahead detent,becomes the Masterlever.

    The Control H ead lever w hich was left i n t he Ahead detent i s now inactive.

    2-9.2 Turning OFF One Lever Operation

    A ) Pl ace t he Masterleverinto the Neutral detent.

    B) Place all inactive Control Head levers into the Neutral detent.

    Whenever an inactive lever(s) is moved to the Neutral detent, One Lever Operation isturned OFF for that lever ONLY!

    In applications wi th t hree or more screws, the green LED wi ll not turn OFF until all

    inactive Control Head levers are returned to the Neutral detent.

    2-10 Engine Synchronization (M ulti Screw )

    Synchroni zation is automatic and onl y operates when t he Ahead clutch is engaged, consequently i t can beleft ON full time.

    When synchr onization has been selected dur ing set up, the Control System wil l alw ays power-up w it hsynchronization ON.

    N O TE: The G reen LED w ill alw ays be lit w hile in O ne Lever O peration, no m atter w hich position the M aster

    Control H ead lever is in.

    W ARN IN G : Personal Injury could occur if the follow ing steps are not follow ed exactly.

    N O TE: The Control H ead lever(s) designated by the operator to be inactive in O ne Lever O peration, m ay be

    left in the Ahead detent or m oved fully forw ard. M oving the lever fully forw ard is recom m ended, because it

    m oves it out of the w ay and prevents accidental bum ps w hile operating.

    W ARN IN G : It is strongly recom m ended that the M aster lever be returned to the N eutral/Idle position prior to

    turning O FF O ne Lever O peration.
