TrimSync - Diagnostics Kit Add On

MDC Diagnostic Kit for DriveSync and TrimSync systems consists of a USB cable and software to access onboard diagnostics, calibration process and fault codes. Step-by-step instructions and a built-in help command reduce the time and effort in diagnosing trim-related issues. Using a Windows 7 or later laptop you can run diagnostic tests to determine if there is an issue with the senders, wiring, or trim pump, before they become a problem on the water.

While running the boat, DriveSync and TrimSync log multiple types of errors and retain them even if the power is turned off. The Diagnostic kit allows you to access the error logs to assist in troubleshooting trim issues. For example, air in the hydraulic lines, a trim cylinder that is failing, or trim sender issue will be logged as an error letting you know which engine had the issue, and how many times it has occurred.

The Diagnostic Kit also provides a remote support capability (requires Wi-Fi) to assist with setup or troubleshooting.

Note: Must Be Purchased With A TrimSync Product Or Kit

Operating a multi-engine offshore powerboat can be a little overwhelming at times.  That’s probably why offshore racing is the only motorsport that requires two drivers. Most offshore boats have an engine trim button built into the throttle lever handle.  We all know that the drives rarely stay perfectly even using just the BOTH button on the throttles.  Having them offset can impact handling, and can be dangerous at high speeds.  So that after a couple of moves we are all reaching to the dash to try and even them out.  Over and over again.

TrimSync is a patent pending device that monitors the trim for twin and triple engine boats, so when the operator presses the BOTH/ALL button, it will automatically adjust the drives to be in perfect alignment, every time.  You will never have to worry about how accurate your mechanical trim indicators are because TrimSync will always move the slowest drive to match the others.  There are no extra buttons or complicated operating instructions, just push the BOTH button and TrimSync does the rest.

If, for some reason, you want one drive to be at a different trim then push that drive’s trim button and it will move just as it always has. TrimSync will re-align the drive trim the next time you push the BOTH button. Just drive!

Please note that we do not support 2-wire senders. If your outboards are not Mercury then please call. If you are running Mercury 2.5 outboards / mid-sections then an MDC Trim Stop Kit is required for proper operation.

Please answer these questions below: ( or download the question form here )

1. Engine make and model?
   • If outboards with AMS then which helm controls are installed (Zero-Effort, DTS, Livorsi, Latham, Mercury Next Gen)
2. Does the boat have SmartCraft / VesselView / VesselLink?
   • If so, does the trim currently appear on your MFD?
3. HARNESS LENGTHS as referenced from the selected mounting location of the controller:
   
   • To the trim sender for each engine. For outboards that would be under the cowling and for sterndrives and trim tabs it will be at the transom.
   • To the helm controls for all outboards with AMS.
   • To the trim pumps for all sterndrives and non-AMS outboards.
   • To the helm mounted preset buttons (not included) if installing Race Edition or Race Edition.
