NOTE:
On
PowerDrive and Riptide PowerDrive
(V2 and newer), once the i-Pilot is installed the
i-Pilot remote will be the only means of steering the PowerDrive motor. The corded footpedal will
no longer steer the motor if the i-Pilot Controller cable is disconnected and the footpedal
reconnected. To recover steering with the corded footpedal, the complete i-Pilot system would need
to be un-installed and, if the motor has an AutoPilot model main control board, an original compass
control board would also need to be installed.
NOTE:
Terrova, Riptide Terrova, Ulterra, Riptide Ulterra, and Ultrex
motors communicate
with any connected accessory via a microprocessor-based network. The failure of
any
installed
network accessory can result in motor malfunction. Disconnect all accessories other than the i-Pilot
when diagnosing the motor. If the problem is corrected, then reconnect each accessory one at a time
to isolate which component caused the issue.
