Perspective View
This sonar view shows a live view of what is around and ahead of your boat and can be used to see shorelines,
fish, and structures. This view is best used in shallow water of 50 feet (15 meters) or less.
To see this sonar view, you must install a compatible LiveScope transducer on compatible a perspective mode
mount.
Selecting the Transducer Type
This chartplotter is compatible with a range of accessory transducers, including the Garmin ClearVü
transducers, which are available at
garmin.com/transducers .
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.
NOTE: Not all chartplotters and sonar modules support this feature.
