    Ultrex TM Offset “Too High”

    Puck is installed 3-4 inches to the left of the foot control on a Ranger 519. I think I did something wrong in the setup but cannot get it to reset so I can correct the offset. It’s currently at 25 which provides an error message of “too high”.

    Tried to fix but I am lost.....any help would be appreciated. Also, at this point, will I be able to do the offset in my garage?


    Thanks in advance for your help!!!

    Restoring Defaults should do it.

    Thanks Piper....Will this only adjust the Offset or will I need to redo the other parts of the install.

    Also, if it is only resetting the offset, I should be able to complete this in the garage (?).

    It will return all settings just as they were when you bought it. You'll have to do the Heading Sensor Calibration and the Heading Offset again.

    Not an expert but,::::: I would think that restoring defaults would re-set everything to what it was when you took it out of the box. This would allow you to start over at step one. Pair the Heading sensor/Calibrate the Heading sensor/Set Heading offset. One thing that might help, the manual confused me because it has instructions for I Pilot and I Pilot Link together and I was reading the wrong instructions. Don’t think you can set it up on trailer inside, motor has to be deployed. Good luck. PS your gonna love it !!!

    You explained it quite well. I agree with loganmartincat, you're going to love this trolling motor. I would never have another boat without an Ultrex!
