Been over and over the book and cannot find how to change the screen color on my Garmin 1022sxv from amber to blue. When I go into settings I have two choices. Day or night. Maybe my unit does not have that capability? Any thoughts appreciated.

Try this Settings>System> Display>Color Mode or push your on/off button color mode should come on screen
Thanks anyway. Not the choices available. Appreciate your time.

I have the 93sv plus unit so it is proably different. When I turned my unit on I had to put it in sonar simulator in order to get to the right menu. I then was on the Livescope simulator page, pressed menu, sonar setup, appearance, and then color screen. From here I was able to change to about a dozen diffrent color schemes but I really prefer the amber and blue. Hope this helps.
I figure my model does not have those choices as I do not seem to have simulator mode. At least I can’t find it on start up or in the manual. Thanks again for trying to help.Quote:

To change settings for a particular view, you will need to be in that view.....Livescope; 2D; Side imaging.
To get to Simulator.....Press Home Button; Select Settings; Select System; Select Simulator.. When finished, be sure to go back and turn the Sinmulator off.
To adjust color on LS, load Livescope, press the menu button; Select Sonar Setup; Select Appearance; Select Color Scheme.
These instructions are for the 1022 that isn't touch screen. Hopefully it will help on the XSV modelQuote:

Try to call Garmin support.
Yes! Finally. Not sure why I was unable to find this route before but followed it exactly and got the correct screen. Kind of ironic though, I did not like the blue screen as well as the standard amber <smile>. Thanks a million!Quote:

Glad you were able to figure it out. I prefer the amber as well for better detail but it is hard to beat the blue to see fish or your bait in bright sunlight. Crank up the gain and game on.
Glad that I could help. The Garmin menus are not totally user friendly. Even after posting those instructions, I will still have trouble finding some of those settings:biggrinQuote:
