Displayed screen shows current depth value and allows Depth Offset to be added
The DEPTH OFFSET is a fixed amount to be added or subtracted from the depth reading. This allows
compensation for keels or depths from the water surface to be displayed. Select a positive number
equal to the vertical distance between the transducer and waterline for depth at the waterline; or select a
negative number equal to the vertical distance between the transducer and keel for depth at the keel. The
current depth as measured by the transducer is listed for comparison to a known depth value.
Display choice Function
“DEPTH OFFSET”
Variable % adjustment factor. 0=no adjustment.
For meters the Range is 32.8 to 32.7m. For feet

Depth Offset
The SPEED option changes the speed transducer reading by the percentage set here.
It is also possible to calibrate this option automatically against a GPS speed input if a GPS device is
present. If there is very little tidal flow and the GPS is giving good SOG (Speed Over Ground) data,
simply press the AUTO softkey and the i5501E will automatically calculate the correct percentage value
to ensure that both water speed and ground speed are identical.

Split Range Percent
This is the percentage of Wide Open Throttle (WOT) that the throttle control lever will apply when fully
forward. For example 25 represents 25% of normal range, so when the lever is fully forward the throttle
will be set to 25% of its normal WOT position.
Proportional Shift Delay
Station Protect
This feature applies to systems with multiple helm stations. It is intended to prohibit an un-authorized
person, like a child from accidentally taking control of the boat. When set for "N" the stations are
selected by pressing the select button with the control lever in neutral. When set to "Y" the sequence
Select, Select, N (Port), Select must be entered in a short time before the station can be selected.
Trolling Settings
When the trolling option is available it may be configured in a variety of ways. The default is set to split
the throttle range between trolling operation and throttle operation with 60 % of the range used to operate
the trolling valve and 40% of the throttle range used to operate the throttle. The default setting also
places a maximum throttle setting of 40% of WOT when the lever is full forward.
Note: The trolling function of the transmission is automatically disabled before any throttle can be
applied.
