If the the units are networked together the trolling motor will see all waypoints and will list the waypoints closet to the boat when you search them on your remote. You have to be in the general vicinity of the desired waypoint. Once you select a waypoint your locator will show you that selection and also display the distance to the waypoint. Remember when you reach your waypoint the the trolling motor will turn off so if you want to hold on that spot you will need to hit your spot lock button on the remote. Hope this helps.
