information screens. The "+" and "-" buttons are used for setting engine speed during troll, cruise control, and setting gauge calibrations.
Troll Control: Sets and controls the idle speed of the engine for trolling without using the throttle. (System Tachometer and Speedometer).
Cruise Control: Sets and controls the speed of the engine for cruising. (Smart Tow Tachometer only).
Launch Control: Sets and controls the speed of acceleration from idle to set cruise speed. (Smart Tow Tachometer only).
Engine Guardian System: Monitors the critical sensors on the engine for any early indications of problems. The system will respond to a problem by reducing engine speed and alert the operator to a potentially damaging situation.
Warning System: The system sounds the warning horn and displays the warning message.

Master Reset

Returns the gauge to the factory defaults through the Master Reset command.

IMPORTANT: Performing a master reset will reset the unit to the factory defaults, thus eliminating any installation and calibrations performed during set up of product.
Press the "-" and "+" buttons simultaneously for approximately 10 seconds (until the graphic bars collide) to restore the unit to factory default settings. Press the "MODE/SELECT" button to confirm.

Auto Detection Engine Function

The System Tachometer/Speedometer and Smart Tow Tachometer come standard with an Engine Auto-detection feature. This feature lets the gauge, on the initial power up, automatically detect which engine type is used and configure the gauge to match that engine type.
On first time power up of the gauge or after a Master Reset, the gauge will display "AUTODETECT". Upon pressing the "MODE/ SELECT" button, the gauge will automatically determine engine type. This will preset the data monitoring screens accordingly. The intention is to make initial setup easier. Press the "MODE/ SELECT" button to start the Auto Detection Engine function.
If the gauge shows a warning of "NO STARBOARD ENGINE" or "MULTIPLE STARBOARD ENGINES", the engine location must be properly selected (Port and Starboard) at the engine using a Mercury Computer Diagnostic System tool (CDS). Perform the Master Reset and Auto Detect functions again. (Refer to Master Reset).

NOTE: Alarm warnings are displayed as shown when used with engines prior to Gen I (2007).
a - Display screen b - Engine Guardian System c - Alarm signal
When a problem is detected, the name of the offending alarm appears on the display.
If problem can cause immediate engine damage, the Engine Guardian System will respond to the problem by limiting engine power. Immediately reduce the throttle speed and refer to the warning messages on the following pages. Refer to the Engine Operation, Maintenance, and Warranty Manual for further explanation of the problem and the correct action to take.
The alarm message will stay displayed until the "MODE" button is pressed. If there are multiple alarms, these will cycle on the display at five-second intervals.
