Electronic Remote Control (ERC)
Electric steering requires a Digital Throttle and Shift (DTS) electronic remote control (ERC). Because it is electronic, an ERC is
capable of several features beyond the basic remote control functions of throttle and shift.
There are several DTS ERCs that can be used with electric steering, depending on the number of engines and the desired
features. The following images show the current Mercury ERCs that will function with electric steering.
71712
Panel mount ERC - ES
71715
Single-engine console ERC - ES
71716
Dual-engine console ERC - no trim
71717
Dual-engine console ERC - with trim
71718
Dual-engine console ERC - premier
71719
Triple-engine console ERC - standard
71720
Triple-engine console ERC - premier
71721
Quad-engine console ERC - standard

Page 2 90-8M0180922 eng MAY 2021

71722
Quad-engine console ERC - premier
71723
Five or six-engine console ERC
The basic styles of ERC are panel mount (single‑engine only), single‑handle console (single‑engine only), and dual‑handle
console (two or more engines).

Panel Mount ERC
Panel mount ERCs control a single engine. There are several variations, but only one of these can be used with electric
steering (ES).

Ref Control/LED Function
aNeutral (N) LED Illuminates when the engine is in the neutral gear position.
The light flashes when the engine is in throttle‑only mode.
bBrightness (+ and –)Increases and decreases the brightness settings for the
lights on the ERC and Mercury helm components.
cTHROTTLE ONLY Allows the boat operator to increase engine RPM without
shifting into gear. Refer to Throttle‑Only Mode.
dQUICK STEER (if equipped)
Decreases the number of steering helm turns, lock‑to‑lock,
for quicker response during docking. This feature also limits
engine speed. Refer to Quick Steer.
e
ACTIVE TRIM (if equipped) The ACTIVE TRIM button turns the Active Trim feature ON
or OFF. Refer to Active Trim.
Profile ▲ and ▼Changes the selected Active Trim profile.
Active Trim LEDs (1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
Indicates the currently selected Active Trim profile.
NOTE: If the LED indicators are flashing, Active Trim is in
setup mode.
fLanyard stop switch (emergency
stop)
In conjunction with the lanyard cord, shuts off the engine
when the operator moves away from the ERC.
gSTART/STOP ENGINE Starts or stops the engine.
hUP ▲ and DN ▼—trim control
Raises and lowers the engine/drive for best efficiency, or for
conditions such as shallow water or trailering. Some boats
are equipped with separately‑mounted trim controls.
i Mechanical lock bar
Pressing the mechanical lock bar allows the engine to shift.
The mechanical lock bar must always be pressed when
moving the control handle out of the neutral position.

helm components.
cTRANSFER Allows boat control to be transferred to a different helm. (The LED will be ON at the active
helm.) Refer to Helm Transfer.
dTHROTTLE ONLY Allows the boat operator to increase engine RPM without shifting into gear. Refer to
Throttle‑Only Mode.

water or trailering. Some boats are equipped with separately‑mounted trim controls.
i Mechanical lock bar Pressing the mechanical lock bar allows the engine to shift. The mechanical lock bar
must always be pressed when moving the control handle out of the neutral position.
Dual‑Handle Console ERC
Dual‑handle console ERCs control two, three, four, five, or six‑engines. Dual‑engine ERCs are available with or without integral
trim switches.
