Dockmate Features
Dockmate Technology
The Dockmate system can control up to 7 functions!
Horn Anchor windlass or winch – 1 or 2 anchors, Port engine, Starboard engine, Bow thruster and Stern thruster. The horn function is included with every Dockmate® Receiver. All other functions can be enabled by adding modules to the Receiver, which has been designed to be on a modular. These modules exist in dozens of versions to provide the support for different brands and models of controls.
The Dockmate® system has redundant fail-safe technologies built into both the hardware and software. Dockmate is raising the bar and setting new standards for the exclusive functionality our product delivers.
SoftDocking and Throttle+ are now included on every Dockmate SINGLE+, TWIN+ and TWIST, at no extra charge. One thing that every boater understands is that docking is made more complex by the delay between engaging the control head lever(s) and the moment the boat begins to move. With our newly-patented SoftDocking technology, a short push of the joystick or button will consistently result in a pre-programmed customisable fraction-of-a-second burst of the propeller. With SoftDocking you can easily and consistently „bump“ the engine(s), enabling you to softly dock a boat.
Throttle+ offers predetermined throttle: This means that every Dockmate can have 2 levels of engine/motor control: idle forward/reverse and calibrated throttle forward/reverse. With Throttle+, extra throttle can be used at any moment, immediately, just by the push of a button or joystick.
