Helm Transfer
!
WARNING
Avoid serious injury or death from loss of boat control. The boat operator should never leave the active station while engine is
in gear. Helm transfer should only be attempted while both stations are manned. One‑person helm transfer should only be
performed while engine is in neutral.
NOTE: Neutral position is preferred when doing a station transfer. If conditions do not allow the remote control to be placed in
the neutral position, a helm transfer can be done while in gear.
The helm transfer function allows the boat operator to select which helm is in control of engine operation. Pressing the
"TRANSFER" button two times allows engine control to be transferred to a new helm. When a helm transfer is initiated, the
control will automatically start adjusting engine RPM and gear position to match the control handle setting at the new helm.
Adjust the control handles to the desired throttle and gear position.
Once the "TRANSFER" button is pressed, the transfer LED will light up and one beep will sound. Press the "TRANSFER"
button again to complete the helm transformation. When helm transformation is complete, another beep will sound and the
transfer LED will turn off.
NOTE: There is a 10 second time frame to complete a helm transfer. If the helm transfer is not completed, the action will be
cancelled and a double beep will sound. Pressing the "TRANSFER" button again will reinitiate a helm transfer.

Synchronizing Helms Prior to Transfer
Pressing the "TRANSFER" button allows the boat operator 10 seconds to match up the control handle settings at the new helm
with the handle settings that are at the old (to be inactive) helm. If the handles are not matched, the neutral lights will flash. The
light blinks faster as the handles are nearing match position. Once the light stays on continuously, the handles are matched and
the button can be pressed again to complete the transfer. This completes the transfer process, and gives control to the new
station. If the helm transfer is not completed within 10 seconds, the action will be cancelled.
