Title:
SYNCHRONIZATION OF SHIFT AND THROTTLE CONTROLS IN A MARINE VESSEL
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/107890
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A method of synchronizing shift and throttle functions of first and second engines in an electronic shift and throttle system includes computing an initial direct throttle command based on a position of a control lever used to control the shift and throttle functions of the first engine. The initial direct throttle command is sent to both the first and second engines. An adjusted throttle command is computed based on a subsequent direct throttle command and the speeds of the first and second engines after execution of the initial direct throttle command. The subsequent direct throttle command is sent to the first engine while the adjusted throttle command is sent to the second engine.
