SVB Pro Contro Auto with Standard

CONGRATULATIONS!
You have just purchased the finest trim tab system in the world! Welcome to the future.
Lenco trim tabs make the single most important difference in the way your boat rides and performs. They are optional on some boats but should be as standard as power trim and tilt. Lenco trim tabs make your boat ride smoother, drier, faster and with increased safety whether on a small skiff or a mega-yacht. Our ball screw design makes our tabs more reliable and twice as powerful as typical hydraulic trim tabs. Coupled with any of our trim tab switches, they also perform with instant response which makes them more precise and user-friendly.
Our goal is to manufacture products that simply make boating more enjoyable.

warning 2 WARNING: THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS CONTAIN IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION AND SHOULD BE FOLLOWED CAREFULLY. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN INJURY AND WILL VOID WARRANTY.
Please read through the instructions in their entirety prior to beginning installation!
Note: Measurements may vary from transom to transom.

Tools and Materials List:

Electric drill
Tape measure
3/16″ & 7/16″ drill bits (.48 & 1.111 cm)
3/16″ Allen wrench
4′ Straight edge or level
2 1/16″ (5.24 cm) Hole saw

Installation of Trim Tab Blades

To begin, determine the location on the transom of the vessel where the Lenco Trim Tab Kit will be installed.
Note: When determining the desired tab location, hold the tab against the transom with the bottom of the hinge knuckle (the lowest point on the hinge) 3/8″ (.95 cm) up from the bottom of the transom, approximately 1″ to 4″ (2.54 to 10.16 cm) in from the chine, and parallel with the hull. See Fig 1 and Fig 2.

LENCO SVB Pro Contro Auto with Standard - Fig 1LENCO SVB Pro Contro Auto with Standard - Fig 2

Note: The reason the hinge knuckle is mounted 3/8″ (.95 cm) from the bottom of the transom is to allow water to continue to travel freely along the bottom of the boat past the transom edge. Tabs are also mounted in this manner for protection while on a boat trailer or in dry dock.

All Performance Series kits with single-tapered blades should be mounted with the tapered side facing toward the center of the transom.

LENCO SVB Pro Contro Auto with Standard - Fig 3

When mounting the hinge to the hull make sure that the inside corner of the hinge knuckle is no closer than 2″ (5.08 cm) to the left or right of any strake edge. The hinge may overlap a strake edge as long as the corner of the hinge knuckle is no closer than 2″ (5.08 cm) to the left or right of the strake edge. Transfer (trace) the hinge screw hole pattern onto the transom for drilling.
Using the 3/16″ (.48 cm) drill bit, drill the previously marked hole locations to a depth of 1-1/4″ (3.18 cm).

LENCO SVB Pro Contro Auto with Standard - Fig 4

Note: When drilling out the screw hole pattern for the trim tab hinge, use caution as a proper drill depth could drill through the transom.
Hinge screws should be installed with marine adhesive caulking, which will seal the holes.
All supplied screws and fasteners are stainless steel. Do not use any other type of alloy.
Mount the trim tab hinge to the transom using provided #14 x 1-1/4″ (3.18 cm) stainless steel sheet metal screws. We recommend using marine adhesive caulking to bed the hinge and screws.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.

warning 2 WARNING: Some boat installations contain fuel tanks and systems, water tanks, or other systems that prevent the actuator cable from entering the hull through the upper mounting bracket. Be sure to check inside the hull before drilling the cable hole to ensure no damage will occur to the other systems.

Actuator Installation

Lower Bracket Installation
The lower bracket connects to the actuator with one supplied bolt and nut. The bracket fastens to the top of the blade with three provided machine screws. See below.
Note: You must use supplied hardware provided by Lenco Marine. The hardware provided has specific lengths and thread lock compound pre-applied to fasteners.

LENCO SVB Pro Contro Auto with Standard - Fig 5

Ensure the actuator is fully retracted by rotating the shaft of the ball screw clockwise as the shaft faces you, as shown below.

LENCO SVB Pro Contro Auto with Standard - Fig 6

For 2.25″ stroke length actuators with a pin to pin length of 10″, the ram tube will retract all the way up to the weld seam. Pin to pin lengths of 10.5″, 11.5″, and 12″ will have the weld seam extend beyond the lower housing when fully retracted.

Mark a line on the transom:

  1. Perpendicular to the axis of the hinge from the center point of the blade.
  2. Align the center of the actuator top bracket attached to the actuator, as shown below.

LENCO SVB Pro Contro Auto with Standard - Fig 7

In order to properly position the upper mounting bracket against the transom, you must lift the trim tab so that the trailing edge is at the recommended height per the blade length above the straight edge when held to the hull. See Fig 2 on page 3.
When the trim tab is at the appropriate level and the actuators are fully retracted, transfer (trace) the outer shape of the upper mounting bracket onto the transom. The upper mounting bracket should be marked where it lays naturally against the transom to prevent binding during actuator function of the trim tabs. This should line up with the mark from center point of blade. See Fig 3.
The upper mounting bracket and the trim tab blade should always be on the same flat plane when being attached to the transom. When installing Standard Mount kits, the distance from the bottom of the transom to the top of the upper mounting bracket should or shall not exceed 14″ (35.6 cm) When installing Edge Mount kits with 9″ tab length, the distance from the bottom of the transom to the top of the upper mounting bracket should or shall not exceed 13.5″ (34.29 cm). All other Edge Mount kits have an 11″ (27.94 cm) maximum distance.

LENCO SVB Pro Contro Auto with Standard - Fig 8

Note: Do not adjust the upper mounting bracket to the right or left of the tab center line, as this will cause binding. Allow the bracket to come to rest at its natural position. See Fig 3.
warning 2 WARNING: Some boat installations contain fuel tanks and systems, water tanks, or other systems that prevent the actuator cable from entering the hull through the upper mounting bracket. Be sure to check inside the hull before drilling the cable hole to ensure no damage will occur to the other systems.
Remove the upper mounting bracket from the actuator and align to the previously marked location to mark the upper mounting bracket screw hole locations and cable hole location.

Using the 3/16″ (.48 cm) drill bit, drill the four previously marked screw hole locations to a depth of 1-1/4″ (3.18 cm).

LENCO SVB Pro Contro Auto with Standard - Fig 9

The actuator installation may require a remote access point for the cable due to boat systems, like a gas tank or battery location. Avoiding critical boat systems when installing the actuators and the through hole for the cable is essential.
The following step may be used to remotely locate the cable through the transom.
After properly mounting the upper bracket of the actuator as noted in the previous step, mark a location for the remote actuator cable gland puck screw hole locations and cable hole location.
Using the 7/64″ (2.76mm) drill bit, drill the three previously marked screw hole locations to a depth of .6″ (15.25mm).

LENCO SVB Pro Contro Auto with Standard - Fig 10

Drill the actuator cable hole with a 7/16″ drill bit through the transom. Route the actuator cable through the cable hole on the upper bracket.
Refasten the pivot bolt and torque to a maximum of 5 in-lbs. Apply marine adhesive to the back of the bracket and fasteners. Add cable gland seal and pass actuator cable through the transom.
Using supplied hardware mount the upper bracket to the transom. Do not overtighten, some materials can be easily stripped.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.

warning 2 WARNING: Installer must leave adequate wire loop as to not pull wire from actuator!
Deutsch Connection Assembly Instructions, First find 2 pin connector insert 16 GA red wire into slot 1. Then insert 16 GA black wire into slot 2, be sure to fully insert the terminals until it locks in place. Once both contacts are in place, insert orange wedge as shown until you hear an audible click.

LENCO SVB Pro Contro Auto with Standard - Fig 11

After routing the actuator cable through the transom of the vessel attach the Deutsch connector. In the installation hardware kit find the 6 pin connector, insert the terminals following the table shown and wire diagram below.
Ensure all terminals are fully seated, then insert six position locking wedge until you hear an audible click.
Note: The plug in position 4 is critical for keeping moisuture and corrosion off of the electrical connections.

LENCO SVB Pro Contro Auto with Standard - Fig 12

Keypad Installation

Note: When determining keypad placement, you must have 2.9″ (74mm) width and 4.4″ (119mm) length for mounting. Make sure there is sufficient clearance behind the helm for the keypad threaded stem. The keypad stem has a depth of 3″ (75mm) and has wire leads 7.6″ (193mm) beyond the threaded stem for attaching the NMEA and communications systems.
At the helm, determine where the tactile keypad will be installed (see Pro Control Keypad Cutout template on page 20) and secure to helm with tape. Cut a circular opening using a 2-1/16″ (5.24 cm) hole saw (Hole must be 2-1/16″). See drawing below. Before cutting, make sure the area inside the helm is clear of wires and other equipment that could be damaged.

WARNING: With some installations other systems may prevent the threaded stem from entering the helm through the intended location’s mounting hole. Be sure to check inside the helm before drilling the hole.
Place the keypad & wiring into the 2-1/16″ hole, feed wires through bezel nut and hand tighten the keypad’s bezel nut onto the backside of helm.

Network and Power Wiring

LENCO SVB Pro Contro Auto with Standard - Fig 14

Network and Power Wiring
NOTE: L2K CAN port is a dedicated CAN to the Lenco actuators and must not be connected to any other CAN bus (e.g. NMEA2000, J1939, NMEA0183). N2K CAN port may be connected to the NMEA2000 network within the vessel.
Every network will have a Backbone (also known as a trunk), two termination resistors and a power drop tee. Tee connectors allow individual devices to connect between the backbone cables. Drop cables connect each device to the backbone (Note: Do not exceed 6 meters with drop cable). Follow the NMEA2000 protocol for installation requirements.
National Marine Electronics Association (nmea.org)

A. Connect the N2K cable from keypad to the NMEA backbone already contained in boat.
An additional drop cable is recommended for this connection.
B. If the boat has compatible Mercury engines installed, connect 10 pin connector to Mercury JBox with an extension cable.
(36″ PN 15202-101, 60″ PN 15203-101, or 120″ PN 15204-101 not included).
C. If the boat does not have the compatible Mercury SmartCraft hardware, use the supplied 10-pin to purple wire connector to connect the wake signal to the vessel’s ignition or another on/off switch to power-on the system.
warning 2 WARNING: Only approved Pro Control devices shall be connected to the private L2K network!
D. Each actuator will have its own power drop and circuit protection must be supplied. 20 amp fuse or breaker must be in placed within 7″ of battery power+ (per ABYC). 36″ power pigtails with Deutsch connectors are supplied with most kits. If power is not provided at the stern of the vessel they may need to be extended. Follow ABYC guidelines when extending power harnesses.
E. Assemble the private L2K CAN network. It will require at least three CAN tees at the helm, at least two CAN tees at the transom, and two resistors.
The private L2K network will require a 12V power tap and 3 amp circuit protection (supplied with most kits).
F. Pro Control Auto requires the Pro Control Auto IMU for functionality (see following page). The Pro Control Auto IMU along with any optional flybridge keypads for Assist and Auto are installed on the vessel’s global N2K network, not L2K.
G. Pro Control Assist requires an external speed over ground source connected through N2K, such as on MFD, for full functionality. Both Assist and Auto systems will also interface with MFDs for expanded functionality and additional features depending on the type of MFD.

Optionally, each CAN network may include a spare CAN port to allow a service tool to be connected to the network, should it be required for commissioning, diagnostics or firmware updating purposes. Note that spare CAN ports should have blanking caps  installed when not in use.

Install IMU

Install the GPS IMU on a flat and level surface subject to as little vibration and excess movement as possible. The IMU should not be mounted to tops, poles and mounts subject to excess vibration. Mounting locations towards the bow of the vessel may cause poor system performance.
The ideal mounting location will also have a clear view to the sky for GPS reception. Ensure the arrow on the top of the IMU unit is pointing towards the bow of the vessel and the unit is firmly fastened to avoid excess vibration.
Route a drop cable from the IMU to the nearest NMEA2000 port as shown below. The IMU is also subject to performance degradation as a result of electromagnetic interference, so care must be taken to ensure that the IMU is mounted sufficiently far away enough from such devices as stereo speakers, amplifiers, metal tools/ equipment, and pumps, which will degrade the quality of the heading data captured by the IMU.

LENCO SVB Pro Contro Auto with Standard - Fig 27

warning 2 WARNING: On power up actuator will attemp to home and retract fully, ensure trim tabs are clear from any obstructions or personnel to prevent injury:
To prepare for first launch with new system, plan an on-water location to commission the system with enough area to complete circles and high speed runs, with relatively smooth water (1 foot or less of water chop is preferred). Note: On first time power up Pro Control Auto will be in a commisioning mode with lights flashing fast in sync!

The following two steps must be completed on open water with less than 1’ of wave chop. Running the boat in a straight line over a reasonable distance, 3/4 mile or more. The sea state should be consistent throughout this commissioning, e.g. the boat must not porpoise.
Boat should be loaded and weighted in the same manner as expected normal use for best outcome: fuel; number of people; gear; etc….

3. Low speed Pitch Control.
This step in the commissioning process captures the lowest speed at which the vessel is expected to plane. The objective of this step is to gradually ramp up speed by applying throttle until the bow rises to its peak and begins to fall. This will be indicated by  blinking LED’s on the keypad and captured by pressing the DIM (LENCO SVB Pro Contro Auto with Standard - Symbol 1) button.

LENCO SVB Pro Contro Auto with Standard - Fig 28

a. Prior to getting underway use the ALL UP/DOWN buttons on the dial face to set the actuator extension to 50%, represented by five LEDs on the right side of the dial lit.
• Only the LEDs on the right hand side of the dial will light up and represent actuator extension of both actuators.
• The two lower DOWN and two lower UP buttons below the dial are locked out.
• Keep in mind, if you return the throttle speed control back to neutral, the TABs will auto retract.
b. Slowly increase vessel speed until all LEDs blink.
c. If the LEDs stop blinking you can slow back down gradually to reengage the pitch control. The LEDs will begin to blink again.
d. Maintain your boat’s speed so that the dial LEDs consistently blink.
e. Wait 5-10 seconds with consistent blinking, if possible, before pressing the DIM (LENCO SVB Pro Contro Auto with Standard - Symbol 1) button, storing the target (best practice).
f. Press and hold DIM (LENCO SVB Pro Contro Auto with Standard - Symbol 1) button 1 second to store the slow pitch control target, both Left and Right-side LEDs will flash three times. The left side LEDs will return to steady state lit.
This indicates that the slow pitch control has been stored.
g. Manually retract the actuators to 0% using the ALL UP button on the dial. No right hand LEDs lit.
h. Rotate dial counterclockwise to next menu with four LEDs lit on the left hand side of the dial.

4. High speed Pitch Control set up.
This step in the commissioning process captures the high speed pitch angle of the vessel. The objective of this step is capture the pitch angle at Wide Open Throttle (WOT) using the DIM (LENCO SVB Pro Contro Auto with Standard - Symbol 1) button.

LENCO SVB Pro Contro Auto with Standard - Fig 29

a. Bring the vessel back to idle speed to automatically fully retract the tabs or use the All Up button on the dial face to bring both tabs to 0%.
b. Increase vessel speed up to maximum WOT.
c. At WOT the vessel must run smoothly, without porpoising.
If the vessel is bobbing across the water use the engine trim to smooth the ride.
d. If engine trim will not smooth the ride then deploy tabs a minimal amount by pressing the ALL DOWN button on the dial face until the porpoising is gone.
e. Maintain WOT speed for 3 to 5 seconds in a straight line if possible (best practice).
f. Press and hold the DIM (LENCO SVB Pro Contro Auto with Standard - Symbol 1) button for 1 second to store target. All LEDsleft and right, will flash three times. This indicates that the high speed pitch control target has been stored.
g. Slow vessel down to idle.

5. Exit Commissioning process
a. Simultaneously hold the AUTO and HOLD button for 4 seconds.
The keypad controls are now in the manual mode. In order to enter Auto Mode press the AUTO button.
warning 2 WARNING: To save programmed settings, the system must be shut down with the vessel’s ignition switch prior to powering batteries off.

Options for other outcomes:
1. Change Delta drop detection to a high degree value, (menu 5 in calibration).
a. Changing the LEDs in menu 5 of (Calibration Menu) will increase the amount the vessel bow has to fall in order to be declared on plane. The outcome will be more TAB used at lower speeds for better BOW control with each increase of LED.
Caution: Over application of tabs is possible which results in poor vessel handling and bow steering.
