Mounting the Sonar Module

Mounting the Panoptix LiveScope GLS 10 Device

NOTICE

If you are mounting the device in fiberglass, when drilling the 

pilot holes, it is recommended to use a countersink bit to drill a 

clearance counterbore through only the top gel-coat layer. This 

will help to avoid cracking in the gel-coat layer when the screws 

are tightened.

NOTE: 

Stainless-steel screws may bind when screwed into 

fiberglass and overtightened. It is recommended to apply an 

anti-seize lubricant to the screws before installing them.

NOTE: 

Screws are included with the device, but they may not 

be suitable for the mounting surface.
Before you mount the device, you must select a mounting 

location and determine what screws and other mounting 

hardware are needed for the surface.

1

Place the device in the mounting location and mark the 

location of the pilot holes.

2

Drill a pilot hole for one corner of the device.

3

Loosely fasten the device to the mounting surface with one 

corner and examine the other three pilot-hole marks.

4

Mark new pilot-hole locations if necessary, and remove the 

device from the mounting surface.

5

Drill the remaining pilot holes.

6

Secure the device to the mounting location.

Blink Codes

After the sonar module is installed, it turns on when the 

chartplotter is turned on. The color status LED on the sonar 

module indicates its operational status.

The sonar module is connected to a 
chartplotter and is operating properly. 
You should see sonar data on the 
chartplotter.

Blinking

The sonar module is turned on, but is 
not connected to a chartplotter, or is 
waiting to connect to a chartplotter. If the 
sonar module is connected to the 
chartplotter and this code persists, 
check the wiring connections.

Calibrating the Compass

Before you can calibrate the compass, the transducer must be 

installed on the shaft far enough away from the trolling motor to 

avoid magnetic interference, and deployed in the water. 

Calibration must be of sufficient quality to enable the internal 

compass.
