This bluetooth enabled heading sensor contains a compass that detects your boat s heading and communicates it to your trolling motor to enable the spot lock jog feature which lets you move your spot lock location in 5 ft. This in turn enables the new jog feature or the ability for the motor to jog your boat five feet at a time in any direction you choose.
