Trolling motor autopilot
If a MotorGuide Xi5 trolling motor with Pinpoint GPS is connected
to the network, then the SmartSteer (autopilot) functionality is
available on your ELITE-7Ti. Trolling motor autopilot is not available
for the ELITE-5Ti.
To use trolling motor autopilot functionality with your ELITE-7Ti, you
need the following:
•
MotorGuide Xi5 trolling motor with Pinpoint GPS (available from
MotorGuide)
•
MotorGuide Pinpoint GPS Gateway (available from MotorGuide)
•
NMEA 2000 network
The Autopilot can automatically control the trolling motor to:
•
Maintain a set heading
•
Maintain the vessel's position
•
Navigate to the cursor position, to a waypoint, or along a route
•
Follow pre-defined turn patterns
•
Control the speed of the trolling motor
Warning:
An autopilot is a useful navigational aid,
but DOES NOT replace a human navigator.
