USING THE FOOT PEDAL

WARNING

You are responsible for the safe and prudent operation of your vessel. We have designed the Terrova Foot Pedal to be an accurate and reliable tool that will enhance boat operation and improve your ability to catch fish. This product does not relieve you from the responsibility for safe operation of your boat. You must avoid hazards to navigation and always maintain a permanent watch so you can respond to situations as they develop. You must always be prepared to regain manual control of your boat. Learn to operate your Terrova in an area free from hazards and obstacles.

Practice proper ergonomics when operating the foot pedal to prevent injury.

Steer Right/Steer Left

The Steer Right and Steer Left buttons are located at the bottom of the Foot Pedal. They function to steer right and left. Holding the Steer Right or Steer Left buttons down will continue to steer the motor to the left or right. Small steering changes of less than one degree can be made by quickly tapping the Steer Right and Steer Left buttons. The position and direction of the Steering Head directly corresponds to the position of the motor. The direction of the motor can also be controlled with the remote.

CAUTION

The steering system is designed to turn your motor 360 degrees. Be careful to avoid over-wrapping the Coil Cord around the trolling motor Shaft. Over wrapping the coil cord will cause damage and prevent operation.

NOTICE: The motor will not auto correct to drive straight when it encounters an obstruction.

Prop ON/OFF

The Prop ON/OFF button is located in the bottom, middle of the Foot Pedal. It functions to turn the Prop on and off. The Prop will turn on when pressure is applied and turn off when pressure to the button is removed. The Prop ON/OFF button functions very similar to the Momentary button.

Constant

The Constant button is located on the left side of the Foot Pedal, towards the bottom, right below the AutoPilot button. It functions to toggle the motor between Constant Motor Operation and Momentary Motor Operation. The green light on the Indicator Panel will be illuminated when the motor is in Constant Motor Operation. In Constant Mode, the propeller will continually run, regardless of whether or not force is being applied to the Momentary button or Prop ON/OFF button. While in Constant Motor Operation, the propeller will run continuously at the speed set by the Speed Control knob, or by the i-Pilot or i-Pilot Link remote.

AutoPilot

The AutoPilot  button is located in the middle, on the left side of the Foot Pedal. Pressing the AutoPilot button toggles the feature on and off for motor that are installed with this feature. The red light on the Indicator Panel is illuminated when this feature is engaged. When AutoPilot is initiated from the Foot Pedal, the default AutoPilot mode is determined by the remote. AutoPilot can also be engaged and disengaged using the remote. For more specific directions on how to use AutoPilot, please refer to either your motor manual, or the i-Pilot or i-Pilot Link Manual. The AutoPilot Indicator on the Mount will also be illuminated when AutoPilot is engaged.

Momentary

In Momentary Motor Operation, the propeller will only run while downward force is applied to the Momentary button. The Momentary button is on the Toe End of the Heel/Toe Steering pedal. Applying downward pressure to the Momentary button will turn the propeller on. The motor will then run at the speed set by the Speed Knob or remote. Removing downward force to the Momentary button will turn the propeller off. No indicator light is associated with the Momentary button. The Momentary button functions very similar to the Prop ON/OFF button.

Heel/Toe Steering

Push the Toe End of the Foot Pedal down to turn right and push the Heel End of the Foot Pedal down to turn left. The position and direction of the Control Head directly corresponds to the position of the motor. You must use your foot on the pedal to control the steering direction during manual operation. The direction of the motor can also be controlled with the remote.

Steering in Reverse

The propeller always turns in the forward direction. You can reverse the direction of thrust by turning the motor 180°.

AUTOPILOT

AUTOPILOT CONTROLS

Your Terrova may be purchased with factory installed AutoPilot.
The Minn Kota AutoPilot™ uses a magnetic compass and microprocessor chip to keep the trolling motor pointed in the direction you want to go. Each time the wind or water current moves the boat off course, the AutoPilot senses the change and steers itself back to the original heading. The AutoPilot direction is set every time a steering change is made. To change direction, steer until the Control Head points to the desired course. The AutoPilot will pull the bow of the boat around and correct automatically until the boat is moving in the direction you chose. If your motor is installed with AutoPilot, it may be controlled with the Foot Pedal, or if equipped with CoPilot receiver, the CoPilot remote, or i-Pilot or i-Pilot Link remote depending on your motor. Be sure to verify how AutoPilot is controlled on your motor if applicable. If your motor is installed with either i-Pilot or i-Pilot Link, please refer to the applicable owner’s manual online for additional information on AutoPilot.

NOTICE: The AutoPilot button on the Terrova Foot Pedal will only work if your Terrova motor comes with AutoPilot already installed on your motor. If your motor does not already have this feature this button will be non- functioning.

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.

CAUTION

This unit uses a magnetic compass to detect direction of travel. The compass can be adversely affected by magnets or large, ferrous metal objects near (within 12” of) the trolling motor control head.

Obstructions on the propeller may cause excessive vibration of the motor head. This vibration can cause the compass to wander and erratic steering to occur. Clear the obstruction to return the motor to normal operation.

This unit has an automatic steering shutdown for safety. In conditions where an obstruction prevents the trolling motor from turning, or in extremely windy conditions, the automatic steering may stop. Any steering input will reset the system to normal.

When AutoPilot is “on” and the trolling motor is pulled out of the water to the stow position, the steering motor will continue to run until the motor is stowed properly. Once the motor is stowed properly, AutoPilot will turn “off” and the AutoPilot Indicator will no longer be illuminated.

CONTROLLING AUTOPILOT

Toggle AutoPilot On/Off

When the AutoPilot is on and the trolling motor is pulled out of the water to the stow position, the steering motor will continue to run.
Turn off AutoPilot to stop the motor. If AutoPilot is left on, the steering motor will shut off automatically after 10 seconds. The motor should not be stored in this condition for long periods as power is still being applied to all electronics. Always turn AutoPilot off and disconnect your motor from the battery when storing your boat.

1. While the motor is running, AutoPilot can be turned on by pressing the AutoPilot button located on the Foot Pedal, CoPilot remote, or using either the i-Pilot or i-Pilot Link remote.
2. While AutoPilot is on, drive the boat as desired.
3. To turn AutoPilot off, press the AutoPilot button again.
   

NOTICE: After steering to a new direction, there is a short delay before the direction is locked in to allow the compass to stabilize. When broad speed changes are made, the AutoPilot heading may change slightly. This is normal.

SPOT-LOCK

HOW SPOT-LOCK WORKS

Spot-Lock uses a single point of reference that is recorded when the Spot-Lock button is pressed. The reference point is a set of GPS coordinates that are captured at the location of the motor at the moment the button is pressed. This point is recorded and can be saved into one of the Spot-Lock memory locations. Spot-Lock works by recognizing th GPS coordinates and will automatically navigate the boat to keep it at the Spot-Lock location. If i-Pilot Link sees the motor is not positioned at the Spot-Lock location, it will control motor speed and direction in an attempt to keep the motor on the Spot-Lock. For more specific directions on how to use Spot Lock, please refer to either the i-Pilot or i-Pilot Link Manual.

NOTICE: The Spot-Lock button on the Terrova Foot Pedal will only work if your Terrova motor comes with Spot-Lock already installed on your motor. If your motor does not already have this feature this button will be non- functioning.

NOTICE: Spot-Lock is based on the location of the motor, not on the location or direction of the boat. Outside forces such as wind and current will cause the boat to move. Spot-Lock will navigate to maintain the motor on the Spot-Lock location regardless of the position of the boat.

WARNING

Watch for a turning propeller when working with Spot- Lock. The propeller will automatically turn on when Spot-Lock is engaged, even if the engagement is accidental. A turning propeller can cause injury. The propeller will turn “on” for Spot-Lock and regardless of the Prop Auto On setting used on the i-Pilot or i-Pilot Link navigational system.

CONTROLLING SPOT-LOCK

Toggle Spot-Lock On/Off

While the motor is running, Spot-Lock can be turned on by pressing the Spot- Lock button located on the Foot Pedal, a Micro Remote remote, or using either the i-Pilot or i-Pilot Link remote.

NOTICE: If the Spot-Lock button is accidentally pressed, press the Spot- Lock button again to cancel Spot-Lock.

NOTICE: Pressing any button on the foot pedal, or manually steering the motor with the foot pedal will disengage Spot-Lock. Manually steering or adjusting the Prop Speed with the Remote will also cancel Spot-Lock.
