Sonar Fishfinder
When properly connected to a transducer, your compatible
chartplotter can be used as a fishfinder. Chartplotter models
without an xsv or xs in their names require a Garmin sounder
module and transducer to display sonar information.
For more information about which transducer is best for your
needs, go to www.garmin.com/transducers .
Different sonar views can help you view the fish in the area. The
sonar views available vary depending on the type of transducer
and sounder module connected to the chartplotter. For example,
you can view certain Panoptix ™ sonar screens only if you have a
compatible Panoptix transducer connected.
There are four basic styles of sonar views available: a full-
screen view, a split-screen view that combines two or more
views, a split-zoom view, and a split-frequency view that
displays two different frequencies. You can customize the
settings for each view in the screen. For example, if you are
viewing the split-frequency view, you can separately adjust the
gain for each frequency.
If you do not see an arrangement of sonar views to suit your
needs, you can create a custom combination screen ( Creating a
New Combination Page , page 3 ) or a SmartMode layout ( Adding
a SmartMode Layout , page 3 ).
Stopping the Transmission of Sonar Signals

Menu > Transmit .

Traditional Sonar View
There are several full-screen views available, depending on the
transducer that is connected.
The full-screen Traditional sonar view shows a large image of
the sonar readings from a transducer. The range scale along the
right side of the screen shows the depth of detected objects as
the screen scrolls from the right to the left.

Split-Frequency Sonar View
In the split-frequency sonar view, the two sides of the screen
show a full-view graph of sonar data of different frequencies.
NOTE: The split-frequency sonar view requires the use of a
dual-frequency transducer.
Split-Zoom Sonar View
The split-zoom sonar view shows a full-view graph of sonar
readings, and a magnified portion of that graph, on the same
screen.
Garmin ClearVü Sonar View
NOTE: To receive Garmin ClearVü scanning sonar, you need a
compatible chartplotter or fishfinder and a compatible
transducer. For information about compatible transducers, go to
www.garmin.com/transducers .
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.
