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.

Selecting the Transducer Type
Before you can select the transducer type, you must know what
kind of transducer you have.
This chartplotter is compatible with the Garmin ClearVü
™
transducer as well as a range of accessory transducers
including Garmin GT transducers, which are available at
www.garmin.com.
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. If the device automatically detected
your transducer, this option does not appear.
