Setting up Active Trim

To configure Active Trim from the display, follow the steps below:

Whilst Active Trim is being configured, any other displays in the same helm group will show the progress in the Active Trim sidebar.

Note

If Active Trim has previously been configured, ensure that the Running profile in the Active Trim sidebar is set to 3 before you begin.

  1. Start the engines and place in neutral gear.
  2. Select Active Trim set-up from the Mercury app’s Advanced settings menu: Menu > Settings > Advanced , or select Configure from the Active Trim sidebar.
  3. Trim all engines to the fully up position.
  4. Select Next.
  5. Trim all engines to the fully down position.
  6. Select Next.
  7. Select Next.
  8. Increase the boat speed to cruising speed.
  9. Increase the major profile until the boat begins to porpoise, then decrease by one profile.

Once configured, you can adjust Active Trim performance by increasing or decreasing the Running profile from the Active Trim sidebar.

If required, the major profile can be changed at any time, by selecting the Select major profile button from the Advanced menu.
