ClearCommand Actuator - for Electronic Engine Throttle, Mechanical Gear Shift, & Mechanical Trolling Valve

The upgraded 9000 Series of ZF Mathers' ClearCommand is a robust control that has been long established as an industry standard in electronic control technology.
9000 ClearCommand is suited to all applications utilizing mechanical or electronically controlled engines and gears with any combination of electronic throttle or shift.
9000 ClearCommand has been tested to requirements set by survey societies such as ABS and DNV, and meets ABYC standards for performance and functional testing. It carries the CE mark and is certified for sale in Europe.

ClearCommand systems, are designed for vessels with either mechanical (throttle, shift, or trolling valve) or electronic (throttle, shift, or trolling valve) requirements.
They meet exacting requirements for efficient control in commercial vessels and luxury yachts up to 150 feet, with engines up to 2,000 hp.

ClearCommand processors are available for many combinations of throttle, shift, troll, and station variations. We list just one , as an example. Please call 800-426-6930 with your particular requirements, or questions.

System requirements: 12 or 24 volt DC power supply, one processor per engine/clutch, and one single lever control head per station.
Electronic control connections are via shielded electric cables.
Mechanical control connections are via standard 33C type push-pull cables.

Plug-in Installation: With plug connectors, the ClearCommand makes installation easier, cutting labor time significantly. Determine cable length, engine and gear requirements and you’re ready to plug in this system. To make it even easier, we’ll provide custom kits to meet specific needs for production builders.

Push-Button Set-Up: Push-button set-up makes configuring the parameters for your controls easier than ever before. Simply enter in the parameter code and the processor instantly makes the correct adjustments. Changing configurations at a later time to meet new specifications is just as easy.

Start Interlock: Our neutral start interlock feature prevents engine start up unless controls are on and in neutral and a station is in command.

Sequencing Technology: Speed/shift sequence protection allows shifting from full ahead to full astern in one motion while preventing damage to the engine or gear. Designed with safety in mind, this sequencing technology allows you to respond instantly to emergency situations.

Synchronization: Engine synchronization is standard on the ClearCommand processor. Synchronization automatically maintains the same speed on multiple engines, thereby increasing operating efficiency, improving fuel economy and reducing noise and vibration. One lever operation is available, allowing control of multiple engines and transmissions with one lever.

Multiple Control Stations: The processor has the capability of supporting as many as 5 control stations, which allows use of an optional handheld control unit, in addition to mounted control heads.

Built-in LED Diagnostic Display: The processor features a display unit which provides information for set up, system status, or diagnostic purposes.

Troll: The processor controls mechanical or electronic trolling valves or ZF Autotroll. This feature controls clutch slippage while maintaining slow engine speed and enhancing fuel economy. A full range of shaft speeds remain available from any station, without additional switches.
