Title: Spot lock leaves a lot of way points?
Post by: Gattlin on June 02, 2019, 02:02:39 AM

It's been awhile sense I've posted on the forum so for that I apologize guys. I'm curious as to, is there a way to use spot lock and not have a way point added that I will just have to delete? This causes down time on the water so any and all helpful info would be mucho appreciated.

Try using the "cancel" button when you want to leave the spot-lock position. This should be shown on your remote window.

So hitting the cancel button everytime? There has to be another way or the software needs an update. $2400 and I spend how much time deleting way points and the hit cancel button is just as bad. It takes away from the focus that should be fishing sry for the rant.

The cancel command is right there on the remote along with the steer right & left commands. It only takes a second to press it and it clears the waypoint number so that you will use the same number over & over until you actually save a location to that number.
