Location: Chippewa Falls, WI		Hey guys,

my brother and myselft run pretty much identical setups on our Rangers. We both have 101lb ipilot/ilink trolling motors hooked up to our HB graphs (which are also the exact same models). The only difference is I took my trolling motor off my triton bass boat and when it was on there I had it cut down a few inches so it didn't stick up out of the water too high. We are taking my boat to LOTW this week and we were thinking about putting his 60" on my boat but I didn't know how that would work. Do we just need to then use his remote with it or will it also cause problems with follow the contour and all the other options that come with having the ilink hooked up to the graph?

thanks,

adubs

Location: MN		It would be very easy. Just re-learn the remote to the new motor. Press and hold learn on the motor head and then hit a button on the remote. You will hear three beeps when it learns the new remote.

Either way will work.

Hooking the Terrova to a different network shouldn't cause any problems either.
