Pairing Spy Pole Accessories

A Spy™ pole is paired with a Spy™ gesture remote, a Spy™ foot control, and a Spy™ heading sensor at the factory. If you replace one of these accessories or add additional control accessories, you must pair them to the Spy™ pole.

You can pair up to five Spy™ gesture remotes with one Spy™ pole at a time. You can pair only one Spy™ foot control and one Spy™ heading sensor to one Spy™ pole at a time.

If you have multiple Spy™ poles installed on the boat, one Spy™ heading sensor can connect to up to four Spy™ poles.

  1. Turn on the Spy™ pole.
  2. Press Power button on the Spy™ pole three times.

    The LED turns solid blue, indicating that the device is pairing.

  3. Select an option depending on the type of accessory you are pairing to the Spy™ pole:
    • To pair a Spy™ gesture remote, press the left and right buttons on the remote simultaneously three times.
    • To pair a Spy™ foot control, press the top two programmable buttons on the foot control simultaneously three times.
    • To pair a Spy™ heading sensor, press the button on the heading sensor three times.

    The LED on the gesture remote or foot control flashes blue, or the LED on the heading sensor turns solid blue, indicating that the device is pairing.

  4. Wait for the accessory to connect to the Spy™ pole.

    The LED on the Spy™ pole turns green, and the LED on the accessory flashes green after the devices are paired successfully.

  5. Repeat this procedure for any additional accessories you want to pair with the Spy™ pole.
