Steps for updating MotorGuide Xi5 Pinpoint trolling motors for use with Lowrance SmartSteer

technology

• Update all HDS Gen2 and/or Gen2 Touch units to 3.5 software version

• The motor update process will not start unless your HDS unit(s) has been updated

with the 3.5 software

• Once the update of all units is complete, power off all HDS units and the NMEA 2000

network

• Power on the Xi5 Trolling motor, make sure the motor is in the down (deployed) position,

and has an active GPS lock (Blue GPS light illuminated on the motor)

• Power on the NMEA 2000 network and at least one networked HDS Gen2 or HDS Gen2

Touch

• Follow the onscreen instructions for the motor updates

• Once the updates are completed the Autopilot (SmartSteer) controls should

automatically enable on the HDS

• If they do not you will need to manually enable them in the Advanced Settings

menu of the HDS under “Features”
