JOYSTICK DRIVING

Product catalog summary
Introduction to Joystick Driving: Volvo Penta introduces Joystick Driving, a system designed to enhance the boating experience by allowing users to steer with a joystick at any speed. This technology, previously exclusive to commercial vessels and yachts, is now available for Volvo Penta IPS and Aquamatics with electronic steering.
System Functionality: The Joystick Driving system activates the autopilot simultaneously when engaged. Users can steer by moving the joystick sideways, and upon release, the autopilot maintains the new course. The system allows for easy course adjustments with minimal joystick movement, while throttle and gear shift controls remain standard. The system requires a Volvo Penta Autopilot.
Features and Benefits: Key features include comfortable and safe driving, ergonomic helm solutions, an intuitive interface, perfect response and control, and integration without additional hardware. The system is fully EVC-integrated, allowing up to six joysticks to be installed, and is developed and serviced by Volvo Penta, ensuring a single point of contact.
Requirements: The system requires electronic steering (Volvo Penta IPS or Aquamatic) and a Volvo Penta Autopilot from the EVC-E series. Joystick driving is activated by pressing the upper right button on the joystick.
Volvo Penta EVC System: The EVC (Electronic Vessel Control) system is Volvo Penta's electronic platform, utilizing CAN-bus technology for total integration. This reduces wiring and connectors, enhancing reliability and ease of installation. EVC offers improved functionality, safety, comfort, and driving economy.
Additional Information: For further details, users are encouraged to contact local Volvo Penta dealers or visit the official website. Note that product availability and specifications may vary by market.
