Throttle-Only Mode

move.

only mode should be used to disable the joystick if the captain is not in command at the helm.
Placing
the ERC in throttle‑only mode will avoid unintended gear engagement. The engines will turn using the steering wheel or the
joystick and the RPM of the engines can be increased while in throttle‑only mode, but the gear position will remain in neutral.
