Steering Controls

Rotary Helm Steering

  • Steer-by-wire electronic rotary helm with tunable steering settings and a robust design.
  • Rotary helm provided with tilt mechanism.

Lever Steering

  • Full-follow up steering can be directed through a lever which travels through a 150 degree arc.
  • Single detent provides haptic feedback to the operator to indicate the rudder center position.

Joystick Controls

ProPilot

  • The ProPilot Joystick controls engine speed (throttle), reverse bucket and steering.
  • When controls are in zero thrust detent position, intuitively control the vessel propulsion in all directions – Ahead, Reverse, Sideways and Rotation by utilizing throttle, reverse bucket and steering.

System Adjustment and Interaction

Graphic Display Panel

Graphic display screen provides the vessel operator with all necessary system interaction, including:

  • Propulsion system status information.
  • Control of control system functions.
  • Adjustment of system configuration parameters including high idle and zero thrust.

Electronic Backup Control

  • Optional redundant control system can provide manual override of bucket and steering.

Helm Controls Configuration Options

Control configurations can be customized to fit various vessel requirements including:

TYPE 1 - Traditional separate throttle, reverse bucket, and shift

TYPE 2 - Combined throttle and reverse bucket with separate shift

TYPE 3 - Combined throttle and shift with separate reverse bucket

Single Engine / Single Station

Two Engine / Two Station

Propulsion Control Panel

The propulsion Control Panel (PCP) includes all of the components necessary to control a single engine / waterjet propulsion system. The PCP can be configured for the specific application. Depending on the type of engine / transmission / waterjet bucket and steering control, the PCP will include the necessary components.

Hydraulic Valve Controller

The Hydraulic Valve Controller can control any hydraulic control valve, receiving commands from the helm station via the CAN network and positioning the reverse bucket or steering hydraulic cylinders to the correct position.

Engine Controller

The Engine Controller can be used to control any engine or transmission, to respond to commands from the helm station via the CAN network.

Smart Actuator 4

The Smart Actuator 4 allows for mechanically operated endpoint functions – mehcanical engine throttle, mechanical transmission shift, and mechanical waterjet reverse bucket.
