Bennett AutoTrim Pro for Electric Trim Tabs (AP000A1BC)

Take the guesswork out of boat leveling with the Bennett AutoTrim Pro (AP000A1BC). This all-in-one trim tab control system is designed specifically for electric trim tab systems (such as Bennett BOLT). It automatically coordinates your trim tabs to keep your boat at the optimum running angle, regardless of changes in weight distribution, speed, or sea conditions.

Effortless Performance and Control

The AutoTrim Pro is more than just a switch; it is a sophisticated flight computer for your boat. By utilizing an integrated gyro sensor and accelerometer, it monitors your boat's pitch and roll in real-time. Once you find your "sweet spot," you can save it into the system's memory, and the AutoTrim Pro will automatically adjust your tabs to maintain that perfect cruise.

Key Features:

• Auto Trim Tab Control: Automatically brings the boat to a pre-set running angle and corrects for listing caused by uneven loads or wind.

• Manual Override: Allows for instant manual control at any time with the touch of a button; the system resumes auto-mode only when prompted.

• Integrated Indication: Built-in LED lights show the real-time position of your trim tabs, eliminating the need for a separate gauge.

• Favorite Settings: Features two "Favorite" buttons (Pitch & Roll) to save your preferred running attitude for different conditions (e.g., cruising vs. heavy seas).

• Auto Tab Retraction: Automatically retracts the tabs when the engine ignition is turned off, protecting them from damage during docking or trailering.

• Hole Shot Assistance: Automatically monitors engine RPM and bow rise to deploy tabs during acceleration, getting you on plane faster and improving fuel efficiency.

Technical Specifications:

• Model Number: AP000A1BC

• Compatibility: Electric Trim Tab Systems ONLY (Bennett BOLT or similar)

• System Voltage: 12V DC

• Components: Control Helm Display and Hardware/Wiring

• Connectivity: Plug-and-play installation with Bennett BOLT actuators.

Why Upgrade to AutoTrim Pro?

Boating becomes significantly more enjoyable when you aren't constantly reaching for the trim switches. AutoTrim Pro is especially effective for:

1. Newer Captains: Simplifies the learning curve of managing boat attitude.

2. Dynamic Loads: Boats where passengers frequently move around or where fuel levels change significantly during a trip.

3. Rough Water: Maintaining a level ride in crosswinds or choppy seas without manual micro-adjustments.

Installation Note:

The AP000A1BC is the version specifically for Electric actuators. If you have a hydraulic system (with a pump and fluid), you would need the AP000A1BC-H model. This kit is designed for easy installation, but ensuring the control unit is mounted level and centered is key for the internal sensors to work accurately.

Calibration

The AutoTrim Pro is designed for easy DIY installation, but it requires a one-time calibration process once the boat is in the water. This involves orienting the internal sensors to your boat's "resting," "idle," and "planing" angles.
