UNDERSTANDING HOW THE
I-PILOT SYSTEM WORKS
Navigation
i-Pilot uses GPS satellite signals as well as digital compass data to know where
it is, where it is heading and the direction the motor is pointing. Since
i-Pilot depends on GPS satellite signals for navigation, a minimum GPS signal
level of one bar is required in order for GPS navigation controls to be
enabled. Best results are achieved when a GPS signal level of four bars can
be obtained.
In simple terms, i-Pilot remembers and creates points to navigate your boat
automatically. i-Pilot also uses a method of GPS navigation called arrival
circles. These imaginary circles allow i-Pilot to understand when it has drifted
away from a point and when it has arrived at a point. The size of the
arrival circles vary depending on GPS signal strength, thus the greater the
signal strength the smaller the arrival circles.
Tracks
Tracks are made of many points that i-Pilot records when recording a track.
The distance between these points varies based on GPS signal strength and the
speed at which you record the track. When a track is played back, i-Pilot uses
the track points and arrival circles to navigate the track.

GPS MOTOR CONTROL
Memory
i-Pilot has the capability of storing up to six individual tracks (each two miles
in length) and six individual Spot Lock locations. These locations are stored
in memory even when power is removed from the system. Spot Lock and
Track memory locations are separate from each other and they cannot
over write each other. Memory locations are identifi ed on the remote LCD
with an icon shown as A, B, C, D, E or F. When the
memory icon is fl ashing, a different location can be
selected by pressing or .
43

minnkotamotors.com
Spot Lock
Spot Lock uses a single point as a
reference for the spot you want to
stay on. This point is recorded and
stored into one of the six memory
locations when the Spot Lock button
is pushed. Around the Spot Lock
location i-Pilot uses an arrival circle to
determine prop speed and direction.
If i-Pilot sees it is within the circle, it
will adjust the motor speed to zero.
If i-Pilot sees it is outside of the circle,
it will control motor speed in an
attempt to get the boat back into
the circle.

Two different versions of AutoPilot
are available Advanced AutoPilot
and AutoPilot. There are distinct
differences between the two
AutoPilots and how they control
your boat.
AutoPilot
AutoPilot uses an internal compass
to provide heading lock. When
AutoPilot is on, it keeps the motor
pointed in the same compass
direction. If a manual steering
correction is made, AutoPilot locks
onto the new compass heading to
which the boat was steered. This
method of heading tracking does not
take into account external forces such
as a side wind or currents, which can
allow side drift.

Advanced AutoPilot
Advanced AutoPilot not only uses
compass heading but also GPS signal
data to correct for cross winds,
current and other external forces to
keep the boat on a straight line. When
Advanced AutoPilot is turned on, it
generates a set of GPS points in a
straight track line in the heading
direction. i-Pilot now navigates to
each individual point on this track
line. When the user steers to a new
heading, a new track line of GPS
points are laid down in the new
heading direction.

ADVANCED AUTOPILOT/AUTOPILOT
Which AutoPilot Do I Use and When?
With all the external variables, this question can be diffi cult to answer.
Both AutoPilots have their benefi ts based on the type of fi shing and bait
presentation desired.
Advanced AutoPilot will keep the boat on a true straight path in most
conditions. When very extreme conditions exists such as very strong
winds or current, the trolling motor may not have enough power to
control the boat smoothly. In these extreme cases it may be best to use
AutoPilot and let the boat move with the wind or current if the motor is
not powerful enough to overcome it.
AutoPilot helps you maintain a constant heading but does not
compensate for wind or currents.
Both Advanced AutoPilot and AutoPilot are valuable tools the
fi sherman can use for accurate and precise bait presentation. We highly
recommend getting on the water and trying both Advanced AutoPilot
and AutoPilot in various fi shing situations and applications. With
experimentation and time you will fi nd which AutoPilot works best for
you in a given situation.

minnkotamotors.com
Track Recording and Playback
When the Track Record button is
pressed, i-Pilot starts to record GPS
position data in the form of track
points. The distance between these
points varies based on the speed of
the boat and the GPS signal strength.
The very fi rst track point recorded is
called the start. The last point
recorded is called the end. i-Pilot
sees a recorded track as a series of
these track points. When a Track
to Start or Track to End button is
pushed, i-Pilot will navigate to the
nearest track point. Once this
nearest track point is reached, it
will then follow the track points in
sequence back to either the start
or end based on which button was
pressed. Once the end or start
track point is reached, i-Pilot
automatically exits from the Track
to Start or Track to End function.
During track playback, i-Pilot takes
control over all steering functions;
speed can be manually controlled or
the Cruise Control function can also

be used. The motor speed must be set high enough in order to stay on
the track given wind, current and other external forces.
i-Pilot can also pause the recording of a track. When the recording is
paused, i-Pilot temporarily stops recording any new track points. When
track recording is resumed, i-Pilot records new track points. Due to
the nature of pausing a recording, there may be a large separation
distance between two track points or two track points lying on top of
one another where the pause occurred. This can cause erratic motor
steering therefore it is very important to know where the pause button
was pressed and to resume the recording just ahead of that location.
If while paused, the separation distance exceeds a quarter mile, the
recording will automatically stop.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q. Does i-Pilot record the speed I am traveling when recording
a track?
A. No. i-Pilot only records its location during track record. It is up to the
user to set the desired speed manually or with Cruise Control.
Q. Why doesn’t my GPS Signal Strength icon always show all
four bars?
A. GPS signal strength is impacted by many influences including:
i-Pilot controller having a clear view of the sky (especially to the
southern sky), boat being located alongside a high bank and your
geographic location.
Q. Is i-Pilot compatible with CoPilot?
A. No. None of the components between the two systems are
compatible with each other.
Q. Does the remote float?
A. Yes.
Q. How long of a track can I record?
A. Each individual track location (A, B, C, D, E or F) can be up to two
miles in length.
Q. Can I use multiple remotes with my i-Pilot?
A. Yes, you can use an unlimited number of remotes simultaneously.
Remember to learn each new remote to the i-Pilot controller.
Q. Why does the LCD screen of the remote have dark blotches on it
when I wear my sunglasses?
A. Polarized sunglasses can dramatically affect the way an LCD looks to
the human eye.

Q. Can I control how fast i-Pilot takes me back to a Spot Lock
location when using Spot Lock Recall?
A. No, Spot Lock and Spot Lock Recall are fully automatic functions
that take full control of motor steering and speed.
Q. Where can I purchase additional remotes?
A. Your local Minn Kota retailer should carry additional remotes.
Q. If I turn off the remote, will i-Pilot continue to operate?
A. Yes. The i-Pilot Controller will continue in its current state of
operation until the user makes a change either with the remote or
foot pedal (Terrova only).
Q. Where are the six tracks and Spot Lock locations stored?
A. In the i-Pilot Controller.
Q. Does i-Pilot help to keep the coil cord from wrapping around
the motor shaft?
A. Yes and no. When in Spot Lock, i-Pilot keeps track of how far it
has rotated in either direction. If a new correction will cause the
coil cord to wrap, it will rotate in the opposite direction in order
to prevent the wrapping. In all other modes, it is up to the user
to monitor the coil cord and to rotate the motor accordingly to
avoid wrapping.

TROUBLESHOOTING
General Troubleshooting
Problem: The motor is making erratic steering corrections while in
AutoPilot, Spot Lock or Track to Start/End.
Solution: Be sure to keep all ferrous metallic objects away from the i-Pilot
controller as they will have an impact on the built-in compass.
Such objects include: anchors, metal framework, etc.
Problem: When a button on the remote is pressed the motor doesn’t
always respond.
Solutions: Check if the low battery indicator is on. If so, replace the
remote’s battery. Check for large obstructions between the
remote and the motor.
Problem: I press a button on the remote and nothing happens.
Solution: Could be a dead battery in the remote. If the battery was just
replaced, open the remote case and verify that all the
internal components were properly reinstalled.
Solution: If
is displayed, the keypad is locked. Press and hold for
3 seconds to unlock the keypad.
Problem: I press a button on the remote and all the icons come on for
a few seconds then it shuts off.
Solutions: Verify that the motor is powered up (for Terrova and Riptide ST,
it must also have its system ready light on). Go through the
learn process for the remote (see page 33 for the procedure).
Problem: i-Pilot won’t let me turn on certain features like: Advanced
AutoPilot, Record, Track to Start/End or Spot Lock.
Solution: Verify that the GPS Signal Strength icon on the LCD shows at
least one bar. If there are no bars, i-Pilot will not allow these
GPS-based features to be enabled.
minnkotamotors.com

minnkotamotors.com
Problem: The remote LCD backlighting will not come on.
Solution: Check if the low battery indicator icon is on. Backlighting
is disabled when a low battery level is detected. Replace
the battery.
Solution: The Backlight will not come on if the remote is not currently
communicating with the i-Pilot Controller.
Spot Lock
Problem: The boat doesn’t seem to keep close enough to the recorded
Spot Lock location.
Solution: Verify the trolling motor batteries are sufficiently charged
Solution: Check for weeds on the prop.
Solution: In more extreme wind and current conditions, the boat will tend
to stabilize a little ways down wind from the intended location.
Relock the location the same distance upwind and expect that the
boat will drift some in the downwind direction.
Cruise Control
Problem: The GPS speed displayed on the remote is different than
what my other GPS system shows.
Solution: If you are using Cruise Control with Advanced AutoPilot or
Track to Start/End, i-Pilot calculates the actual speed in the
intended direction of travel which may differ from your
GPS reported speed.
Problem: Cruise Control isn’t holding the target speed close enough.
Solution: Verify the trolling motor batteries are sufficiently charged.

AutoPilot
Problem: When in Advanced AutoPilot in strong winds, there is quite a
bit of back and forth movement in the boat.
Solution: While Advanced AutoPilot will keep your boat on a true
heading, it may be at the expense of the boat having to
continuously move to get back on the correct course. In these
extreme conditions you may be better off using AutoPilot and
correcting for the wind manually.
Problem: I press and release the Advanced AutoPilot button and the
system goes into AutoPilot instead of Advanced AutoPilot.
Solution: If the GPS Signal Strength indicator shows no bars, then pressing
and releasing the AutoPilot button will enable AutoPilot
automatically instead of requiring that the button be held for
two to three seconds like when GPS is present.
Track Record and Playback
Problem: While in Track to Start/End the propeller suddenly stopped.
Solution: Verify you did not accidentally enable another automatic feature
such as AutoPilot or Spot Lock.
Solution: When the end (or start) of the track is achieved during playback,
i-Pilot will automatically turn off the motor along with canceling
Track to Start/End.
Problem: While in Record mode, the recording suddenly stopped.
Solution: You may have reached the two mile limit for recording a track.

Terrova/Riptide ST:
Problem: Pressing a button on the remote causes all the icons to come
on for a few seconds then they all go off.
Solution: Ensure the motor is deployed and that the System Ready light
on the motor is illuminated.
Solution: Verify that the i-Pilot controller is properly plugged in.
Solution: Try to relearn the remote to the controller.
Solution: Cycle power to the motor by stowing and deploying the motor
verifying that the System Ready light comes back on when the
motor is deployed
Problem: The Prop Speed icon on the remote shows “F” and i-Pilot
is unresponsive.
Solution: Ensure the connector going to the controller is secure.
Solution: Remove power to the motor by stowing it. Wait until the
remote screen goes blank. Deploy the motor to power it up
verifying that the System Ready light comes back on when the
motor is deployed. Press any button on the remote to turn
it on.
PowerDrive V2 /Riptide SP:
Problem: Pressing a button on the remote causes all the icons to come
on for a few seconds then they all go off.
Solution: Verify that the i-Pilot controller is properly plugged into the
footpedal connector on the motor.
Solution: Try to relearn the remote to the controller.
Solution: Cycle power to the motor.
Problem: Steering does not work properly or at all.
Solution: Verify that the steering wires from the i-Pilot cable are properly
connected directly to the two-wire cable coming from the
