Troubleshooting

 

 

PROBLEM:

 

In the UP or AUTO-UP mode the downrigger stops

 

periodically but the display stays on or the circuit

 

breaker trips repeatedly.

 

SOLUTION:

 

• Low battery. The battery voltage at the power cord

 

is less than 11.5 volts (measure with a volt meter

 

while the downrigger is pulling up the weight).

 

• Power cable is too long or too small in diameter.

 

• Do not overload the downrigger. It is designed to lift

 

up to 20 lb. weights only.

PROBLEM:

Unit does not turn on.

SOLUTION:

•Check polarity on power cable.

•Check circuit breaker(s)

PROBLEM:

Unit does not count the amount of cable retrieved correctly.

SOLUTION:

Verify that the correct line type (Coated/Uncoated) and line on reel is set to the correct length.

PROBLEM:

Unit does not count the depth correctly.

SOLUTION:

•Current was interrupted and circuit board was reset.

•Check power cable connections and try to prevent power interruption.

•Retrieve the trolling weight using UP or AUTO-UP.

•Unplug the power cable for 30 seconds and then reconnect.

•Reset the Zero Depth to your desired position.

•Verify that all magnets are present in the spool.

PROBLEM:

Clutch slips

SOLUTION:

•Retighten clutch knob. Clutch knob should be just tight enough that the clutch does not slip when downrigger is in normal use. Do not use tools of any kind to tighten the clutch, hand tightening should always be sufficient.

•Check clutch disc condition by removing side cover and spool. Replace if necessary.

PROBLEM:

Unit does not stop at water line.

SOLUTION:

Using the up and down buttons, adjust the weight so it is at or a little below the water line. Use the Water Zero button to set that as the new water zero point. Note: due to cable stack this water zero point may shift up or down. It may have to be adjusted continuously depending on the amount of up and down cycles.

DIGI-TROLL 5, DIGI-TROLL 5 TS specifications

The Cannon DIGI-TROLL 5 TS and DIGI-TROLL 5 are sophisticated trolling motor controllers that represent a leap forward in fishing technology. Designed for the angler who demands precision, efficiency, and ease of use, these devices offer a suite of features that enhance the fishing experience.

A standout feature of both models is the integrated digital depth counter, which provides real-time readings of the depth at which the bait is deployed. This valuable information allows anglers to optimize their lure presentation and accurately target specific species. The ability to monitor depth digitally eliminates the guesswork and ensures that the bait is presented where the fish are most likely to be.

The DIGI-TROLL series also boasts advanced line counter technology, enabling users to track how much line has been let out. This feature is particularly beneficial when trolling multiple lines, as it helps maintain consistent bait depth and spacing. The precise line counter enhances productivity by reducing tangles and ensuring that each line is effectively set at the desired depth.

Another significant characteristic is the dual-speed control that both models offer. This allows users to customize the speed of their downrigger, giving anglers the versatility to adapt to changing conditions or particular fish behavior. The DIGI-TROLL 5 TS takes this a step further with a feature for auto-stop, which helps prevent overrun and provides added convenience when adjusting settings.

Furthermore, both the DIGI-TROLL 5 TS and DIGI-TROLL 5 come with intuitive, user-friendly interfaces. Backlit LCD displays make it easy to read information even in low-light conditions, which is vital during early morning or late evening fishing trips. The buttons are strategically placed for quick adjustments, ensuring that anglers can focus on catching fish rather than fiddling with complex settings.

Durability is another hallmark of the DIGI-TROLL series. Built to withstand the rigors of the marine environment, these devices feature corrosion-resistant materials that ensure longevity even under harsh conditions. The Cannon DIGI-TROLL 5 TS and DIGI-TROLL 5 are not just tools, but reliable companions that enhance every fishing outing.

Whether you are a seasoned pro or a weekend warrior, the Cannon DIGI-TROLL 5 TS and DIGI-TROLL 5 offer essential features and robust technology to elevate your fishing game. With these innovative trolling motor controllers, the path to a successful day on the water is clearer and more efficient than ever before.
