The Garmin LiveScope™ XR LVS62 Transducer is the standalone “Extended Range” component of Garmin’s live-scanning sonar suite. It is designed specifically for anglers who already own a GLS 10™ sonar black box and want to maximize their range in deep freshwater or coastal saltwater environments.
Key Features
-
Massive Reach: Provides real-time imagery up to 500 feet in freshwater and 350 feet in saltwater.
-
Steady Imagery: Features a built-in AHRS (Attitude Heading Reference System) that stabilizes the sonar view on your chartplotter, even when the boat is pitching in heavy swells or choppy water.
-
Target Separation: Advanced processing ensures that even at extreme distances, you can distinguish between fish, structure, and the bottom.
-
Vivid Color Palettes: Compatible with Garmin’s high-contrast color schemes, allowing for better visualization based on water clarity and light conditions.
