The enhancement is a software upgrade that is included in all new Express Joystick and Express Positioning Systems, and can be loaded onto existing controls. With the Twin Disc EC300 Power Commander™ electronic propulsion control system, it actuates engine throttle, QuickShift® transmissions and thrusters, proportional to the amount of pressure used. This allows the system to be configured for a specific vessel and the sea conditions it commonly operates in.ĮJS delivers instant, reliable control of conventional driveline boats. New configuration panels allow technicians to fine-tune the engine and thruster rpm controls. In times of critical maneuvering, it can be set to maintain a higher idle for an even more immediate response. Likewise, it instantly regulates the throttle when the joystick is used manually. It's completely automatic, so if wind and/or currents increase when using Express Positioning, the system adjusts the engine idle accordingly. Engine idle is automatically lowered to reduce noise and vibration, and increase fuel economy, especially when station-keeping. Now, this state-of-the-art combination has been enhanced with a Variable Idle Mode.

When Twin Disc introduced its Express Joystick System® (EJS®) and Express Positioning® technologies, it ushered-in a new era of vessel control for recreational and commercial operators.
