FrontVü Sonar View
The Panoptix FrontVü sonar view increases your situational
awareness by showing obstructions under the water, up to
91 meters (300 feet) in front of the boat.
The ability to effectively avoid forward collisions with FrontVü
sonar decreases as your speed rises above 8 knots.
To see the FrontVü sonar view, you must install and connect a
compatible transducer, such as a PS21 transducer. You may
need to update the transducer software.

kind of transducer you have.
This chartplotter is compatible with a range of accessory
transducers, including the Garmin ClearVü
™
transducers, which

If you are connecting a transducer that was not included with the
chartplotter, you may need to set the transducer type to make
the sonar function properly.

Sonar Sharing
This feature may not be available on all chartplotter models.

compatible external sonar module, such as a GCV ™ sonar
module. In addition, you can view the sonar data from other
chartplotters that have a built-in sonar module.
Each chartplotter on the network can display sonar data from
every compatible sonar module and transducer on the network,
no matter where the chartplotters and transducers are mounted
