Today I'm going to walk through the garmin Panoptix livescope installtion. This is the actual wiring and connection. I will also be mounting the livescope transducer. #Livescope#Panoptix,electric steer trolling motor.

Thanks for the information on the 45 cable!
I picked up the same 93sv and Panoptix on a black Friday sale. I'll be doing my install this weekend. I restored an 89 Alumacraft Lunker to get my 90 yr old step dad out fishing and I'm hoping this helps get us on some fish. Thanks for the vid.
Thanks for the step-by-step tutorial on installing the LVS-32 Livescope. I just purchased the Black Friday Sales and got the LVS-32 under a $1,000 and 2 - Garmin Echomap Ultra 106sv under a $1,000 each and now I am ready for LIVESCOPE. I just installed it. I know is old technology but for me is excellent since I am a crappie fisherman and at 25 feet or less both the LVS34 and LVS32 are on par with each other. Thank you again. BTW, I loved your double console graph board construct. That was a brilliant idea.
I powered my live scope with a separate dedicated 12v 30ah lithium. It runs it all day no problem.

Good stuff man. It’s crazy how far technology has come nowadays to the marine industry. That live scope is definitely a game changer

One important thing you did when heating the heat shrink wire was you shook your lighter back and forth. The heat shrink won't secure around the wire unless you shake your lighter.
I'm a retired electrical engineer and instrumentation mechanic, Do not ground the wire if you are experiencing noise or interference. leave the other end open, if you ground it, it will act as an antenna. I have fixed a lot of noise issues by disconnecting the ground in the control room.

@@lonniehall9006 There a shielded cable with a ground going through it when grounding xducer and/ or computer unit don't ground them both as it makes an antenna which will interfere with the unit and be displayed as noise. I had a ground with mine.

Did you say the gls10 power wire had #8 ga from that unit... thanks
nice boat
Are extetions required ? Can you not hook directly to battery?
Where did ya get that mount for the head unit?
2 questions. So I have the Terrova and just got the LVS34 with the 93Sv and I don’t have to buy the cornfield mount? I can just put it on the side like you did? Also I bought the bundle so did the fish finder come with a transducer if it’s own that it runs off of when livescope isn’t on? Or does the livescope transducer run everything such as side imagining?
stupid question: does the black box power the graph, or does that need its own dedicated power?
Where did you mount the Cable after you put the air hose on
I just sold my Xi5 bc I was too nervous mounting Livescope to it. You should make a video title How To Mount Transducers and Panoptix to Xi5 Xi3

So glad you had that trolling motor haha I’ve got a minn Kota powerdrive I pilot and was going to get livescope but didn’t know if I could mount it to my trolling motor or if I had to get a pole which I didn’t want. How good does that set up do? I’m looking at doing the same thing

it works you have to be careful of how you deploy your motor or you will snip the transducer cables on these electric steer motors.

Precision sonar has a setup that you can mount to the power drive trolling motors it keeps the wires out of the way
Stupid question but does the black box power your graph, or did I miss you running the power wires for it? (it may have already been wired, sorry for the silly question)

Ok good to know. I just installed my LSV34 and it never mentioned that but it might be a little different than your 32. I will work anyway you mount it, but that’s the direction it will look.
