Connecting to a Garmin Wearable Device

You can connect the trolling motor wirelessly to a compatible Garmin® wearable device, and control the trolling motor using the Trolling Motor app on the wearable.

The first time you connect the trolling motor to your wearable, you must pair the wearable and the motor. After they are paired, the wearable connects to the motor automatically when the motor is powered on and within range.

  1. Make sure the trolling motor is powered on and a remote control is connected to it.
  2. Bring your compatible Garmin wearable within 3 m (10 ft.) of the trolling motor.
  3. On the wearable, hold MENU.
  4. Select Sensors & Accessories > Add New > Trolling Motor.
  5. On the trolling motor display panel, press Power button three times to enter pairing mode.

    Synchronization icon on the trolling motor display panel is solid blue as it searches for a connection, and changes to solid green when the connection is successful.

  6. Confirm the pairing code shown on the wearable and on the connected remote control.

You can press START and select Trolling Motor from the list of activities and apps to open the trolling motor controls.
