Guess I'm being lazy, but asking rather than reading through manuals: what it the correct procedure, with respect to the vacuum head, when off shore and discharging overboard? Should the vacuum head be left on, turned off? Should anything other than the filtered air vent be left open during discharge pumping. Just want to be sure when I pump out I don't mess up the normal operation of the vacuum head.

when I pump mine out, I do not do anything relative to the head. My last boat had a vacuum head, and I never did anything to it either. all I ever did was turn on the discharge pump and let it fly!!! so to speak.
(I am assuming you are referring to pumping out the holding tank and not doing a direct pump out of the waste from the head to the water, which I do not think my Tiarra is equipped to do. )
