The Key Captain™ control panel is designed for easy installation.

See separate installation instructions for mounting of Key Captain™

electrical lock latches.

MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS

1. The Key Captain™ control panel may be positioned near the helm,

and in a secure area. The control panel may be secured to any

solid, flat mounting surface and oriented in any direction.

2. For security protection, the control panel should be mounted inside

a lockable compartment or other secure area.

3. For maximum reception of signals from the transmitter to the control

panel it should be located close to top level of the boat (see Fig. 1).

It should be mounted within 10 inches of a fuse distribution panel

(furnished by others).

4. Using the control panel as a template, mark holes for mounting feet

and drill holes. Secure control panel in place taking care not to over

tighten screws or penetrate hull.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Float Remote™ Transmitters control the operation/functions of the

Key Captain™ system. The operating range is 25-30 feet with direct

line of sight between the transmitter and control panel. The effective

range may diminish if direct line of sight is not available.

Five function buttons are located on top of the Transmitter.

Lock and Un-Lock operations are accomplished by momentarily

pressing the following push buttons.

Press and release to Lock all electric lock/latches.

Press and release to Un-Lock all electric lock/latches.

Bilge Blower operations are accomplished by momentarily

depressing the following push button.

Press and release to turn Bilge Blower ON

Press and release again to turn Bilge Blower OFF

Trim DOWN and Trim UP operations are accomplished by pressing

the following push buttons.

Press and hold until desired Trim DOWN position is reached.

Press and hold until desired Trim UP (Trailer) position is reached.

ALTERNATE WIRING INSTRUCTIONS

Note: Use ALTERNATE WIRING INSTRUCTIONS when current

requirements exceed fuse ratings shown in Power

Specification (Key Captain™ Control Panel). Auxiliary relays

are required to switch higher current trim motors and bilge

blowers. Auxiliary relays must be rated at 12VDC, 5 amp

maximum coils with normally open contacts (de-energized

state) that are rated for trim motor and bilge blower current

draw.

REMOTE FLOAT TRANSMITTER BATTERY REPLACEMENT

The Key Captain™, Remote Float™ Transmitter is powered by two coin

cell batteries (see Power Specification).

To replace the batteries, remove the top off of the unit by prying with

small screwdriver. Remove the circuit board. The two batteries are on the

under side of the circuit board.

Replace batteries. Replace circuit board. Reinstall cap while observing

alignment with key clip mounting hole. Used batteries should be

disposed of properly.

Properly installed the Float Remote™ has a watertight seal and is

watertight to IP-67 standards and will float with up to two small boat

ignition keys attached to the remote transmitter. Note: The transmitter

will not be replaceable under warranty after first customer battery

replacement.

CONFIGURING THE SYSTEM OR REPLACING A TRANSMITTER.

Remote Float™ Transmitters are configured to the Key Captain control

unit at time of assembly or whenever a new transmitter is purchased.

Each control unit will need to be configured (learn) about all the

transmitters before the system will function.

1. To configure the system apply power the control panel (see

wiring instructions).

2. Press the plunger of the learn switch located on the control

panel. This will place the control panel in the learn mode and

will disable the lock/unlock features from operating.

3. With the control panel in the learn mode, press the lock button

on the transmitter for one second and release.

4. Wait one second then press the lock button again, but hold

and do not release.

5. The lock/unlock system will continue to be inoperable and will

not respond to the transmitter for another 10 seconds.

6. Once the control panel has learned about the transmitter it will

respond to the transmitter and actuate the lock/unlock system.

7. The control panel has learned about the transmitter and can

be used.

8. Repeat steps 1-8 to configure additional transmitters.

KEY CAPTAIN™ SLEEP MODE

The Float Remote™ will put itself into a power saving “sleep mode”

when inactive for several minutes. It will reactivate when any

pushbutton is pressed.

KEY CAPTAIN™ AUDIBLE MODE

Each time a Float Remote™ pushbutton is pressed the control

panel will produce an audible “chirp’ to acknowledge to the operator

that the transmitted signal has been received. The audible may be

permanently disabled by clipping the jumper wire on outside of

control panel case.

To permanently disable audible signal,

cut jumper wire.
