Updated Livescope to 2.41 Last Weekend>All Good>Screenshots

I decided to go ahead and update to the new 2.41 software Friday afternoon. I have 2.10 backed up on my PC so if I need to roll back I can. Well I did not have any problems after updating the units. Did a factory default reset,calibrated the compass and dialed my settings in. Don’t need as much gain for Livescope with the new update. I have noise reduction on High to Medium and TVG set to Off or Low depending on the depth and water conditions. I use amber or crawfish orange for the color. Really has very clear image IMO. I did have the ghost tree really bad but I forgot to adjust the transducer angle for the 8 degree cant for forward view. No more ghost tree now. Here are 5 screen shots I took. Limited out catching crappie Saturday night.

TypeO in my title. I meant 2.41 not 2.31. My Bad

Looks good
How deep is the water in Perspective pics?
Thanks

13ft – 14ft deep about 45ft from the bank. Those two trees were completely submerged from the bank straight out in the water. The one tree top is huge.

It is a Echomap Plus93sv. I use the Poleducer setup with a Summit transducer mount for forward/downand perspective mode. I really like the Summit mount. I can dial in the angle that I need for the different depths I am fishing. Very versatile.

Wish I could get my 93SV dialed in like yours! Nice images

I fixed that for you, Rammer. :ThumbsUp

I can't get over the technology improvements these days, this perspective view is amazing. I've been interested in the livescope sense they came out............ SOOON.

If I can so can you. Watch the last part of this video. This is what I did after the update and doing Factory Default Reset. His setup works, you just adjust to dial in the gain and TVG is always Off or Low. Noise Reject is High or Medium. Good settings to start.

Hope this helps you.

Yes…. It is truly amazing how far technology has come. Garmin is at the top right now with Livescope. I’m waiting for the next generation to come. Hope they enhance the forward view and perspective view. Would like forward view to be a little wider degree angle maybe 35 or 40 degrees. Maybe add a 2^nd port in the blackbox for a 2^nd transducer. Have forward and perspective on a splitscreen.
My first high tech fishfinder was a Hummingbird model D-3 600 Three Dimensionalsonar Fish finder. Got it at K-Mart back in 1991 for $429.00. It was 3D imaging of the bottom and 2D sonar, It was the best fish finder I ever had until Garmin Echomap 93sv with Livescope.

Great video!!

Decent explanation of settings. Notice his voltage is quite low - 10.6V! Mine never goes under 12.0 (big wire and beefy battery).

I’m also looking into getting the LS and have watched a ton of videos on settings, etc... thanks for the video link!

Hey no problem…. I will say this, it’s the best $2,400 I ever spent.I absolutely love LS. No more wastingtime and bait. If there isn’t any activity move on. Before I saw his video my settings were causinga lot of clutter and grainy images and what appeared to be dead spots. I watchedhis vid and was amazed at the clarity of his screen. So I tried it and itcleared up most all of that noise and clutter. Now all I have to fool with is gain +/-. And maybe noise reduction from High to Med. Just depends on the water conditions. I always fish Lake Eufaula in Alabama butintend on going to Lake Seminole in Georgia next week. Haven’t fished it inabout 5 years and want to look at things with LS down there. Seminole is adifferent kind of lake. Lots of hydrilla, grass and submerged timber. BTY… Ialways use to use AMBER for the color scheme but after playing around with colorsI really like the CRAWFISH ORANGE color. IMO everything just appears sharper to some degree. I will post some earlier photos from last yearwhen I was running the original software update 2.10 and then the screen shotslast weekend with 2.41. Going on vacation next week and will be on the lake asmuch as possible. Wish I could record using ActiveCaptain but I have the Echomapso I can’t. Will take more screenshots if I run up anything worth wild. Smiles!!!

Some pic's from last year.

Screenshots from last weekend with 2.41and new settings.

My first video after I got the Livescope last year. It was under the bridge at Lake Eufaula, AL at Barbour Creek bridge. Sorry for the poor quality, I wish I could record via ActiveCaptain but I have Echomap not GPSmap.


Video>>> YouTube

Pretty good images.
I may try amber again

Thanks

Not to crash or hijack the thread but I’ve asked around everywhere and not many answers so I’ll ask. What monitor should I get for the livescope. Will strictly be using it for LS. Would like to keep it around 10” just for price purposes. Price tag seems to go up about $600-700 at 12” unless it’s night and day difference going to the 12” then I’d entertain the idea lol.

A lot of Livescope users go with Garmin's GPSMAP 1022 exclusively for Livescope, no sonar, no transducer, comes with world wide maps plus you can add G3 lake maps. If you run it on a network with another compatible chartplotter with sonar this unit can share that sonar.
1022 > $1,199. 1222 > $1,899.

You want a map get 106sv or 1042
No map 1022.
FYI. 93 sv+ works well and saves you $, 9 inches

Think I read where the 93 has a bad glare compared to the GPS but I may be mistaken

I have the 1222, if I wanted to stay at 10” I’d go 1022.

Is the echo map ultra 102 any better as far as resolution and picture quality vs the GPS 1022? Just weighing the options with touch screen vs non touch screen.

It does have glare

102 and 106 have higher resolution than 1022.
