Basic Operation and Features
IMPORTANT: MercMonitor can be assimilated into many
different power package configurations; from a single engine low
horsepower outboard motor, to a multiengine multistation digital
throttle and shift vessel. There may be some gauge features,
displays, operations, and warnings that will not be applicable for
your power package. Some screens can be turned on, but will
not show any changes to the display. See your selling dealer for
an explanation of what information your power package can
display.
Power up: After the ignition is turned on, the front splash screen
will display the name of the gauge, the level of the gauge, and
the version of the software for approximately two seconds.
Lights: Adjusts the brightness and contrast of the gauge.
Buttons: The "MODE" button is used for selecting information
screens. The "+" and "–" buttons are used for setting engine
speed for cruise control, launch control, and setting gauge
calibrations. To return to the previous screen, hold the "MODE"
button down for three to five seconds.
Cruise control: Sets and controls the speed of the engine for
cruising.
Launch control: Controls the speed of acceleration from idle to
cruise speed.
Engine Guardian System: Monitors the critical sensors on the
engine for any early indication of problems. The system will
respond to a problem by reducing engine speed and alerting the
operator to a potentially damaging situation.
Warning system: The system sounds the warning horn and
displays the warning "AL" in the right corner of the "Main Menu"
screen. The alarm screen will pop up, flashing a warning icon in
the middle of the screen and the "AL" in the upper right side of
the screen. Press the "+" button to display the descriptive text.
IMPORTANT: Optional sensors such as depth, fuel, paddle
wheel, and steering angle, should always be connected to the
starboard engine when using SmartCraft gauges version 4.0 or
later.
