LiveScope™ Plus, sonda LVS34 samo

The Garmin LiveScope™ Plus LVS34 is an advanced real-time sonar technology providing exceptionally clear and precise underwater vision. It is designed for anglers and navigators seeking improved fish and underwater structure identification. This transducer is sold standalone, allowing upgrade of an existing LiveScope system or replacement of a faulty unit.

The LVS34 transducer is compatible with Garmin multifunction displays from the ECHOMAP Ultra and GPSMAP series.

Note that the LVS34 transducer requires the LiveScope GLS 10 sonar module to function. This module is sold separately and is not included with the LVS34 transducer alone.

To achieve the best performance from the LVS34 transducer, consider the following mounting guidelines:

Avoid mounting the transducer in the propeller wash path. For boats with outboard or inboard/outboard motors, mount the transducer on the side of the propeller’s downward thrust, typically starboard.Choose a location where the transducer will not be struck during launching, towing, or storage.Ensure the transducer is not behind frames, stiffeners, fittings, water discharge outlets, or other transducers piercing the hull, as these can create air bubbles or turbulence that interfere with the sonar beam.Mount the transducer as close as possible to the boat’s centerline.On twin-engine boats, mount the transducer between the engines if possible.

The LVS34 transducer, integrated with LiveScope Plus technology, delivers significant improvements over the previous LiveScope generation (LVS32). These enhancements include:

A significantly increased live sonar image resolution, providing superior visual clarity.A reduced noise level, resulting in sharper, less cluttered images.Better target separation, making it easier to distinguish between fish and underwater structures, even at extended depths and ranges.These advancements enable improved underwater interpretation.

Yes, the LVS34 transducer is designed to be an upgrade for existing LiveScope systems. If you already own the LiveScope GLS 10 sonar module, you can replace your LVS32 transducer with the LVS34 to benefit from the improvements of LiveScope Plus technology.

The LVS34 transducer is sold separately specifically to allow users to upgrade their existing installation without having to purchase a complete system.

Yes, it is mandatory to update the software on your Garmin display (chartplotter or fishfinder) after installing the LVS34 transducer. This update ensures compatibility and proper operation of the new transducer with your device. You can find instructions for updating the software in your display’s user manual.
