PRODUCT INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
MOUNTING ANGLE CALIBRATION
IMPORTANT: This calibration is required and is normally completed
once when the GPS modules are installed. It should be repeated
when the trolling motor is moved from one boat to another. This
calibration can be done with the boat in or out of the water.

mounting angle calibration. The Xi5 will emit an audible tune once it
has acquired a fixed GPS position (in the default audio mode), and
the GPS status indicator light will illuminate.
1. Power up and deploy the trolling motor. Adjust the motor height
so that the motor is clear of any obstructions while turning.
IMPORTANT: Stay a safe distance away from the propeller—the
trolling motor is in an operational mode.
WARNING
Rotating propellers can cause serious injury or death. Never start
or operate the motor out of water.

PRODUCT INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
2. Use the left turn and right turn buttons to steer the unit so that it
is facing straight ahead, parallel with the keel of the boat, with the
nose cone of the lower unit facing forward and the propeller
facing aft.

as possible, press and hold the Manual mode button, then press
and release the 1, 1, then 2 buttons in sequence. The trolling
motor will emit an audible tune, flash the status indicator light,
and then return to manual mode, completing the mounting angle
calibration.
COMPASS CALIBRATION
IMPORTANT: This calibration is completed at the factory. It should
only be repeated if the Pinpoint GPS system is not responding
properly. This calibration must be done with the boat in the water,
using the primary propulsion engine.

where your trolling motor and primary propulsion engine will not
hit bottom or other obstructions.
3. Press and hold the Manual mode button, then press 1, 1, 1. The
trolling motor will emit three ascending‑tone beeps.
4. Use the primary propulsion engine to slowly drive the boat in two

PRODUCT INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
Operating the Pinpoint GPS System
PINPOINT GPS STARTUP
The global positioning system (GPS) is a satellite‑based navigation
system capable of providing positional information anywhere on
Earth, provided that the GPS receiver has a clear line of sight to at
least four GPS satellites.
When the trolling motor is powered up and deployed, it is immediately
capable of operating as a conventional trolling motor. The trolling
motor will require approximately 30 seconds to acquire a fixed GPS
position. Having a clear view of the sky overhead, with no large trees,
power lines, bridges, or buildings to interfere with the GPS signal, will
improve the GPS accuracy and reduce the amount of time required to
obtain a fixed GPS position. Once the unit has acquired a fixed GPS
position, the GPS accuracy will continually improve for several
minutes. It is recommended to power up the trolling motor as soon as
possible before operation to allow the fixed GPS position to become
as accurate as possible.
Power up the trolling motor by connecting the battery cables to the
trolling motor batteries, or plugging the trolling motor into the trolling
motor power plug (if equipped). The trolling motor will emit audio
signals to make the operator aware of its status.
• The trolling motor will emit one beep when it is powered up.
• The trolling motor will emit a three‑beep tune once it has
acquired a fixed GPS position, and the GPS status indicator light
will illuminate.
OPERATING IN MANUAL MODE
In manual mode, the trolling motor operates like a conventional
trolling motor. It allows the operator to manually control the direction
of travel and thrust level of the trolling motor, using the directional
controls on the handheld remote or wireless foot pedal. Refer to the
following illustration and instructions to operate the trolling motor in
manual mode with the handheld remote.
eng
15
PRODUCT INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
Once the trolling motor is powered up, it is ready to operate in manual
mode. Manual mode is the default mode after power‑up, and also if
the GPS signal is lost while in a GPS operating mode. The trolling
motor will emit one beep to indicate its status in manual mode. To
enter manual mode from another mode, press the manual mode
button.

Turning the Handheld Remote On or Off
The handheld remote is always on, and is ready for use anytime that
the trolling motor is powered up and in the deployed position.
Steering
•
To turn left, press the left turn button on the handheld remote.
•
To turn right, press the right turn button.
The available steering range allows the trolling motor to turn
beyond 180° for operation in reverse.

motor will illuminate.
The trolling motor will emit a two‑beep tone when the propeller is
stopped, and the propeller status indicator light will turn off.

PRODUCT INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
•
The system is equipped with 20 speed levels. Press the increase
speed (+) button to increase motor speed by one level, and
press the decrease speed (–) button to reduce the motor speed
by one level.
•
Holding the increase speed (+) or decrease speed (–) buttons
will cause the speed level to increase or decrease until the speed
level is reached. Holding the increase speed (+) or decrease
speed (–) button for 2.5 seconds will increase the speed level
from 0% to 100%, or decrease from 100% to 0%, respectively.
The trolling motor will emit two beeps when it reaches the 100%
or 0% speed level.
The trolling motor will emit two beeps if the user tries to increase
or decrease the motor speed beyond its limits.
•
OPERATING IN ANCHOR MODE
Anchor mode allows the boat's bow to remain in a fixed location, and
will automatically account for wind and current changes to keep the
boat in the selected location, using the trolling motor steering and
speed controls. In order for anchor mode to operate, the Pinpoint
GPS system must have achieved a fixed GPS location, indicated by
the trolling motor emitting a three‑beep tune, and the GPS status
indicator light will illuminate.
eng
17
PRODUCT INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
WARNING
Avoid serious injury from colliding with other boats, running
aground, or striking objects in the water. The Pinpoint GPS system
cannot detect other boats, shallow water, or objects in the water.
Always beware of possible obstructions to navigation when
operating in any Pinpoint GPS mode.
a - Anchor mode
b - Manual mode
53018
WARNING
A spinning propeller, a moving boat, or any solid device attached to
the boat can cause serious injury or death to swimmers. Stop the
trolling motor immediately whenever anyone in the water is near
your boat.
Setting the Anchor
Press the anchor mode button to place the system in anchor mode.
When the anchor mode button is pressed, the system will lock onto
the fixed GPS position at the moment that the button was pressed.
The trolling motor will emit one ascending chirp to indicate its status
in anchor mode, and the GPS status indicator light will blink slowly.
While anchor mode holds the boat in the selected position, the boat
may rotate or pivot around the trolling motor's steering axis. The
orientation of the boat will follow the wind and/or current.
18
eng
PRODUCT INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
Exiting Anchor Mode
Press the anchor mode button again or press the manual mode
button. The trolling motor will emit a descending chirp and the GPS
status indicator light on the trolling motor will stop blinking and remain
on.
