Garmin ClearVü Sonar View
NOTE:
To receive Garmin ClearVü scanning sonar, you need a
compatible transducer. For information about compatible
transducers, go to
Garmin ClearVü high-frequency sonar provides a detailed
picture of the fishing environment around the boat in a detailed
representation of structures the boat is passing over.
Traditional transducers emit a conical beam. The Garmin
ClearVü scanning sonar technology emits two narrow beams,
similar to the shape of the beam in a copying machine. These
beams provide a clearer, picture-like image of what is beneath
the boat.

Sonar View
Not all models provide built-in Garmin SideVü sonar support. If
your model does not provide built-in SideVü sonar, you need a
compatible sounder module and compatible SideVü transducer.
If your model does provide built-in SideVü sonar, you need a
compatible SideVü transducer.
SideVü scanning sonar technology shows you a picture of what
lies to the sides of the boat. You can use this as a search tool to
find structures and fish.

SideVü Scanning Technology
Instead of a more common conical beam, the SideVü transducer

movement either in front of or below your boat. The screen
updates very quickly, producing sonar views that look more like
live video.
