Title: iPilot Functions Not Showing Up on 1199 (with Ulterra)
Post by: snooktarpon on June 24, 2016, 12:57:22 AM
I just purchased a 1199ci HD SI (factory refurb) and a Ulterra with iPilot-Link. I've registered the 1199 and the iPilot Link and I verified I have the latest software (7.650 for the 1199 and 2.150 for the iPilot Link). Both came with the latest software installed so I didn't run any updates. I'm also using the Lakemaster Plus map chip (for Great Lakes).

I've have a successfully connection via the ethernet cable when I run an Accessory Test (see attached photo showing the proof). I was reading the older iPilot-Link guide (for the Terrova) since the newer guide is for the Onix. In the guide, its states when you go to Accessories Tab -> iPilot -> iPilot Navigation and turn it on, related i-Pilot Link menus will be added to the
menu system. When I do this, I'm not seeing any of the related i-Pilot Link menus. See my two screenshots (one of the accessories tab and the other is the nav tab).

FYI, I'm testing this in my garage. So I haven't testing this on the water yet (that's for tomorrow). Is the system smart enough to know that I'm not on the water so it doesn't enable the iPilot menus? Or did I fail to configure something?

Just to clairfy, during the setup, the Ulterra is powered on but not deployed. My trailer will interfere with the deployment so I have go out on the water.

So I'm wondering if the iPilot menus will show up once the Ulterra is deployed.

I don't think the Ulterra will even power on until it's deployed and locked into position ...

Please post results after your water test ...

I'm glad to say that all the iPilot menus came up once I deployed the Ulterra. I wish the owner's manual would have stated that to save me some grief. Now it's time to learn all the iPilot functions.
