boAT Rigging & PRodUCT insTALLATion
For safety and compliance reasons, we recommend that you follow American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC) standards when
rigging your boat. Altering boat wiring should be completed by a qualifi ed marine technician. The following specifi cations are for
general guidelines only:
CAUTION: These guidelines apply to general rigging to support your Minn Kota motor. Powering multiple motors or additional
electrical devices from the same power circuit may impact the recommended conductor gauge and circuit breaker size. If you are
using wire longer than that provided with your unit, follow the conductor gauge and circuit breaker sizing table below. If your wire
extension length is more than 25 feet, we recommend that you contact a qualifi ed marine technician.
An over-current protection device (circuit breaker or fuse) must be used. Coast Guard requirements dictate that
each ungrounded current-carrying conductor must be protected by a manually reset, trip-free circuit breaker or fuse. The type
(voltage and current rating) of the fuse or circuit breaker must be sized accordingly to the trolling motor used. The table below gives
recommended guidelines for circuit breaker sizing.

This conductor and circuit breaker sizing table is only valid for the following assumptions:
1. No more than 3 conductors are bundled together inside of a sheath or conduit outside of engine spaces.
2. Each conductor has 105° C temp rated insulation.
3. No more than 5% voltage drop allowed at full motor power based on published product power requirements.
*Wire Extension Length refers to the distance from the batteries to the trolling motor leads.
sELECTing THE CoRRECT bATTERiEs
The motor will operate with any lead acid, deep cycle marine 12 volt battery/batteries. For best results, use a deep cycle, marine
battery with at least a 105 ampere hour rating. Maintain battery at full charge. Proper care will ensure having battery power
when you need it, and will signifi cantly improve the battery life. Failure to recharge lead-acid batteries (within 12-24 hours) is the
leading cause of premature battery failure. Use a multi-stage charger to avoid overcharging. We off er a wide selection of chargers
to fi t your charging needs. If you are using a crank battery to start a gasoline outboard, we recommend that you use a separate
deep cycle marine battery/batteries for your Minn Kota trolling motor.
Advice Regarding Batteries:
• Never connect the (+) and the (–) terminals of the battery together. Take care that no metal object can fall onto the battery and
short the terminals. This would immediately lead to a short and extreme fi re danger.
• It is highly recommended that a circuit breaker or fuse be used with this trolling motor. Refer to “Conductor Gauge and Circuit
Breaker Sizing Table” in the previous section to fi nd the appropriate circuit breaker or fuse for your motor. For motors requiring
a 60-amp breaker, the Minn Kota MKR-19 60-amp circuit breaker is recommended.

LAYoUT
The i-Pilot remote is divided into four sections: Manual Control, Tracks, Spot Lock, and Cruise Control/AutoPilot. Buttons in
the Manual Control section of the remote do not require a GPS signal to operate and give you full, immediate control over steering,
speed and prop functions similar to a CoPilot. All other buttons require a minimum GPS signal strength of one bar in order to operate.
Buttons located in the Tracks section are used for track recording and playback. Spot Lock buttons are located in the Spot Lock
section. Cruise Control/AutoPilot are located in the Cruise Control/AutoPilot section.
ConsTRUCTion
The remote is waterproof and fl oats in water.
RAngE
The range of the remote will be greatly reduced if it is used near or mounted to any metal object including aluminum or steel. It is also
recommended that the front end of the remote not be obstructed during use.

ConsTRUCTion
The i-Pilot controller contains a very sensitive digital compass and is where all GPS satellite and
i-Pilot remote signals are received. It is very important that the controller have a clear view of
the sky in all directions and has a clear line of sight to the remote for optimum performance. All
electronics within the controller enclosure are completely sealed.
REmoTE LEARning
The i-Pilot remote is prelearned to the controller from the factory. The top of the controller
has a single learn button to allow additional remotes to be added to the system. To learn
additional remotes:
1. Power up the trolling motor.
2. Push and hold the learn button down. A steady audio tone will be heard while holding this button.
3. While holding the learn button down push any button on the remote being programmed. Three beeps will be heard when the remote
is successfully learned.
A remote can only be learned to one controller at a time. A controller can have an unlimited number of remotes learned to it. During
the learn process, the remote must start out in the OFF condition. If necessary, the remote can be turned off by pressing and
holding the Pause button for three seconds.

PowER
The i-Pilot controller will turn on whenever the trolling motor has power. For Terrova and Riptide ST motors this is when the green
system ready light is on. For PowerDrive V2 and Riptide SP motors this is whenever the motor is connected to power.
*For this reason it is very important to disconnect a PowerDrive V2 or Riptide SP motor from power when not in use or battery
drain will occur.
ACCURACY
The accuracy and responsiveness with which i-Pilot controls your boat is highly dependent upon many variables. Just a few of
these variables and their general eff ects on responsiveness and accuracy are given below so that the behavior of the system can be
understood.
sYsTEm sTARTUP
Once you have verifi ed i-Pilot’s installation it’s time to start using it on the water. Follow these simple steps each time you power up
your trolling motor for successful operation:
1. Connect trolling motor to power.
2. Deploy trolling motor into water.
3. Push any button on your remote. The remote LCD will show prop speed and GPS signal strength.
4. You are now able to use all manual functions:
and .
5. After i-Pilot has obtained a minimum GPS signal strength of one bar, all remaining functions will become available.
vARiAbLE EffECT
Ratio of motor thrust to
boat weight
Excessive thrust on a smaller boat can cause i-Pilot to overcorrect.
Not enough thrust on a large boat can cause i-Pilot to respond slowly.
Wind Excessive wind and/or current can reduce i-Pilot’s positioning accuracy.
GPS signal strength The greater number of GPS signal bars the greater the accuracy.

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.
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 diff erent location can be selected by pressing or .

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.

How AUToPiLoT woRKs
Two diff erent versions of AutoPilot are available: Advanced AutoPilot and AutoPilot. There
are distinct diff erences 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.

1. To engage Advanced AutoPilot, press once. To engage AutoPilot, press and hold
for two seconds.
2. The Advanced AutoPilot or AutoPilot icon will be displayed on the remote LCD.
3. To adjust desired heading, manually steer motor to new heading. i-Pilot will lock onto new heading.
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.

How TRACK RECoRding And PLAYbACK woRK
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
