to handle the forces exerted on the Smart Thruster while deployed and while underway.
It is the boater's
responsibility to ensure the integrity of the installation on your boat.
The DockStar Smart Thruster should be mounted such that when the boat is cruising at speed no part of the Smart
Thruster is submerged even temporarily. This may require removing the Smart Thruster from its rail under some
sea conditions. Submersion at speed creates tremendous forces on the Smart Thruster and could lead to damaging
your boat or thruster.
The Smart Thruster is held up out of the water when retracted by the lanyard. Periodically inspect the lanyard
attached to the thruster. Immediately replace any frayed line in the lanyard.
Be careful when deploying the Smart Thruster so as not to let the thruster slide down the rail too fast. Should the
thruster be "dropped" down the rail the impact with the track stop could cause damage to the thruster or the boat.
The supplied battery charger limits its charging current to 4 Amps and is specifically designed to charge LiFePo
batteries. Do not use another charger that supplies more than 4 Amps or one that is not intended for LiFePo batteries.
Never submerge the Smart Thruster's faceplate. It is splash proof but not suitable for submersion.
Never submerge the Smart Thruster radio transmitter. It is neither splash proof nor waterproof.
Replace the radio transmitter battery every year, or more often if you are a frequent boater. A low transmitter
battery will result in unreliable communication with the Smart Thruster and could create a hazardous situation.
The Smart Thruster has a safety feature that inhibits the motor operation unless the Smart Thruster is deployed. A
sensor inside the Smart Thruster inhibits the motor controller unless a strong magnetic field is sensed. A magnet
assembly is located inside the installation kit's stainless tube.
The LED light in the On/Off button flashes on and off quickly to indicate the magnetic field is sensed. If this flashing
pattern should be observed at any time when the motor is not deployed, turn off the Smart Thruster and do not use
it until the problem is resolved.
Never place a magnet near the Smart Thruster when it is not deployed. This may allow for accidentally turning the
thruster on.
Prior to deploying the Smart Thruster each time, verify that the Smart Thruster is at least 50% charged by observing
the status LED in the On/Off button. Please refer to the sections below for how to interpret the LED flashing pattern.
Each time the thruster is deployed, verify its operation to both starboard and port prior to entering confined space
or prior to leaving the dock if undocking.
The Smart Thruster's radio is a modern remote control device certified to FCC requirements. It uses a frequency
band assigned to remote control applications. The FCC keeps this frequency clear by limiting the permissible power
of certified devices. However, it is still possible under some situations for there may be sufficient energy on this
frequency as to interfere with the communication with the Smart Thruster. If you detect communication problems
between the transmitter and the Smart Thruster, retract the thruster and turn it off until the problem can be resolved.
The transmitter can be assigned one of 255 different codes (see the "pairing" instructions below). The Smart Thruster
must be paired with the transmitter as described in this manual prior to use. If the Smart Thruster is responding to
transmissions from some other device, turn off the Smart Thruster. Try selecting a different code and pair the
thruster with the radio transmitter again. If the problem persists, discontinue all use of the Thruster until the problem
can be resolved.
