MotorGuide PinPoint GPS Navigation System, Anchor Mode, Heading Lock, Route Record and Playback, Cruise Control, Remote Control

Overview

The MotorGuide 8M0092070 is a PinPoint GPS navigation upgrade for MotorGuide Xi Series bow-mount trolling motors, adding GPS-guided control from a wireless handheld remote. It lets you hold the bow on a fixed GPS coordinate with Anchor mode, store and recall up to eight positions, and fine-tune the hold by jogging the boat in 5-foot steps.

For covering water, it can lock a compass heading, record and replay up to eight routes of up to four miles each, and hold a GPS speed while running a heading or route. This setup makes sense for anglers who spend time on structure and want steadier boat control when wind or current starts pushing the bow around.

Key features

• PinPoint GPS control for compatible non-GPS MotorGuide Xi Series bow-mount trolling motors
• Wireless handheld remote runs GPS modes plus steering and speed adjustments
• Anchor mode holds position on a fixed GPS coordinate and stores up to eight anchor locations
• Anchor position can be jogged in 5-foot increments in any direction while staying in Anchor mode
• Heading Lock keeps the boat tracking a selected compass heading
• Route record and playback stores up to eight routes, up to four miles each
• Cruise Control holds a GPS speed while navigating a heading or a saved route

Compatibility and fit

This navigation system is used to upgrade non-GPS Xi Series motors to PinPoint GPS functionality. It supports Xi Series setups across 12V, 24V, and 36V systems. Before ordering, confirm your trolling motor is an Xi Series version that accepts the PinPoint GPS module.

Installation and setup

Installation places the GPS modules into the trolling motor assembly and links the handheld remote to the motor during initial power-up. After the hardware is in, plan on completing the required mounting angle calibration and compass calibration so GPS and heading functions track correctly on your boat.

Keep anchors and other iron objects at least 36 inches from the trolling motor when using GPS features, and route the trolling motor power leads together and away from the motor as much as practical. GPS reception can be affected by bridges, tall trees, buildings, mountain ranges, and severe weather, so give the system a clear view of the sky when you can.

On-the-water notes

GPS-guided modes steer and correct position, but they do not detect shallow water, other boats, or objects in the water. Keep a watch and be ready to take manual control any time you are close to docks, rocks, or traffic.

Maintenance and care

Rinse the trolling motor with fresh water after use and keep the mount area clean. Avoid pressure washing the trolling motor assembly, and check wiring connections periodically for looseness or corrosion.

Many products sold by Apollo Lighting include a manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials or workmanship. Warranty terms vary by brand, product category, and model, so eligibility, coverage duration, exclusions, and available remedies are determined by the applicable manufacturer. We recommend reviewing the warranty information provided with your product before installation or use, especially for marine electronics, navigation equipment, lighting, electrical systems, pumps, safety equipment, and other specialized marine products.

If you need warranty service, the claim must follow the process established by the manufacturer, authorized service center, or designated warranty provider. You may be asked for proof of purchase, a serial number, product registration, photos, maintenance or installation records, or other documentation. Apollo Lighting does not determine or modify a manufacturer's warranty coverage or final claim decision, but we are happy to help provide purchase information and direct you to the appropriate manufacturer or warranty resource.

Keep your receipt, product documentation, serial number information, and original packaging when practical. Damage caused by normal wear, misuse, improper installation, insufficient maintenance, corrosion, impact, unauthorized modifications, electrical issues, or operation outside the manufacturer's specifications may not be covered. Warranty claims are separate from standard returns, so a product that has been installed, used, or exposed to marine conditions may no longer qualify for return while still remaining eligible for evaluation under the manufacturer's applicable warranty.
