Abstract
A method of controlling a user interface for an electric marine propulsion system is configured to determine a system power limit based on charge levels of each of the plurality of batteries, control the at least one electric motor of a marine drive in the electric marine propulsion system so that the system power limit is not exceeded, activate an imbalance limit alert when the system power limit for the plurality of batteries is less than a threshold power output for the at least one electric motor or a number of active batteries available to provide power output to the at least one electric motor is less than all of the plurality of batteries, and control a user interface device based on the imbalance limit alert.
