1.0 System Description & Capabilities
With the advent of electronically controlled engines in the marine industry, GLENDINNING has developed the EEC3 to
be compatible with all types of electronically governed engines and will provide the boat operator with total control
over the boat’s propulsion system. The EEC3 incorporates the following features:
Single or dual lever control — What’s your preference? Single lever control, where a single control handle con-
trols both throttle and gear, provides the maximum convenience, but some boat operators prefer dual lever con-
trol. We offer you both options!
Adjustable control head detent / friction settings — This feature allows for the setting of the control head detent
and /or friction quickly and easily while underway, without disassembling the control head!
“Posi-lock” gear lockout — A dedicated button (WARM) is provided to lockout the gear and allows engine RPM
to be increased safely.
High idle mode — Up to 7 idle speeds are available and can be adjusted through system calibration.
Bump mode — Want to make minute adjustments in engine speed (approx. 10-15 RPM)? Simply press the
WARM or TROLL buttons!
Slow mode — Limits maximum RPM available to approximately 50% of normal WOT. Very useful for manuev-
ering or slow speed cruising (SLOW).
Battery voltage warning indicator — Our system alerts you when either too low or too high voltage exists. The
control system will continue to operate.
System diagnostic warning indicator — The EEC3 monitors many parameters and notifies you when condi-
tions fall outside suitable operating range.
Gear position indicating lights — You know that the transmission has shifted into the appropriate gear with this
visual gear position indicator.
Audible neutral indicator — Audible alert sounds when transmission has been shifted into neutral.
Control head light dimmer — Bright lights are great for daylight conditions, but can be distracting at night. This
feature allows you to dim the control head lights for each station individually.
Two button station transfer — No more accidental transfer of control from one station to another. Our system’s
TAKE button must be depressed twice in order to transfer control from one station to another.
1.1 System Components
The EEC3 system consists of 4 separate components. They are:
Control Head
The EEC3 control head was designed with a more contempo-
rary, stylish look that is sure to accentuate any console—but
good looks isn’t all that it has going for it.
The EEC3 control head is by far the most informative control
head in the industry today. The control head keypad has integrat-
ed switches and indicator lights which allow the boat operator to
