Propeller Controls; Start Or Stop The Propeller - Humminbird i-PILOT LINK Operation Manual

P C
ROPELLER ONTROLS
A manual function is where the operator takes full control of the function, such as manually steering the motor or adjusting the
propeller speed.
The propeller can be controlled from the X-Press Remote or the X-Press Remote pane in the Chart View. You can steer, increase or
decrease speed, and start Cruise Control from the X-Press Remote.
WARNING! If you use the X-Press Remote to steer, you are taking manual control, and the current navigation mode will be
canceled (with the exception of recording an iTrack).
WARNING! Watch for a turning propeller and be prepared for boat movement when working with each i-Pilot Link navigation
mode. The propeller will automatically turn on when i-Pilot Link navigation modes are engaged, even if the engagement is
accidental. A turning propeller can cause injury.

Start or Stop the Propeller

The propeller must be started to start navigation with the i-Pilot Link. You can start the propeller manually each time you start i-
Pilot navigation, or you can set the propeller to turn on automatically when i-Pilot Link navigation is initiated (see Configure i-Pilot
with the Control Head: Turn on/off Prop Auto On).
WARNING! Spot-Locks and Cruise Control will turn on the propeller as soon as they are engaged, regardless of the Prop Auto On
setting.
