AUSE
The proportional pause feature provides engine deceleration when
making a direction change. The pause is variable and in propor-
tion to:
• The Control Head’s lever position prior to the reversal.
• How long the Control Head’s lever has been in that position prior
to the reversal.
The pause is In-Gear or at Neutral, depending on the Function
Code
C2
Proportional Pause setting. The sequence of events, are
as follows for the three different Reversal Pause types:
7-13.1 In-Gear Delay [C200]
• The Throttle position drops to Idle.
• The Transmission remains engaged in Ahead or Astern.
• The Control System pauses at this position until the delay has
timed out.
• The Transmission shifts to the opposite gear (Astern or
Ahead).
• The Throttle position moves to the Control Head’s present
lever position.
7-13.2 Neutral Delay [C201]
• The Throttle position drops to Idle.
• The Transmission shifts to Neutral.
• The Control System pauses at this position until the delay has
timed out.
• The Transmission shifts to the opposite gear (Astern or
Ahead).
• The Throttle position moves to the Control Head’s present
lever position.
7-13.3 Fixed Neutral Delay [C202]
• The Throttle drops to Idle.
• The Transmission shifts to Neutral.
• The Control System pauses at this position for the amount of
time programmed (duration) with Function
C3
Proportional
Pause Time (regardless of prior throttle setting).
• The Transmission shifts to the opposite gear (Port or Star-
board)
• The Throttle position moves to the Control Head’s present
commanded position.
CAUTION: The Fixed Neutral Delay feature was added in order to accommodate
Thruster Control installations. Damage to the drive train may occur when
used for reverse reduction gear applications.
