Garmin Livescope Color Limit Update! I Gotta Eat Some Crow For Sure. It Looks Pretty Good After All

Part 1 Settings. part 2 is what I’ve learned from Garmin concerning some problems with the update. I cannot take all the credit for these settings. I took a little from a lot of peoples advice and come up with what I believe is the best place to start.

[@jimmyarnold723]

Thanks for taking the time digging into the new update. I’ve got the 1222, I’ll be interested to see how it looks on the water.

[@The_Garmin_Guru]

I hope it works for you bud.

[@jmrose60]

This helps a bunch man. My settings are close to yours but running color gain higher. Got to do some more tweaking. If I can get my picture like yours, I'll be happy. Looks good, thanks for the great info!

[@The_Garmin_Guru]

Thank you for watching bud.

[@thebasswicker6294]

Another great video brother! Keep them coming

[@The_Garmin_Guru]

Tomorrows video is gonna show how to force update your unit to ensure your update is the best quality it can be

[@AsleepAtTheReel]

Will have to try that. The settings I am running are pretty much the same as yours that you just mentioned with the exception of the color limit. “The Void” is still my major issue.

[@The_Garmin_Guru]

I found out that when you noise control completely off I didn’t have any voids. I’m using the color limit to control noise instead of noise control. It’s not perfect but better

[@KennyPattersonFishing]

I pretty much did what you did on my unit. I turned everything off and started adjusting one setting at a time then readjusting settings as I added other settings. (Ghost tree off/Color limit off/noise reject low) Gain 65-70 Color gain 40-45 (Really muddy water) Still having trouble seeing a 1/16 jig at 40-50ft out

[@The_Garmin_Guru]

The best way I’ve found to make adjustments is with a bobber and suspend the bait below it and start making adjustments until You can see it like you want it.

[@MC-qg5nu]

Great info thank you

[@billbush1645]

Thanks for the video. Looks like a great vertical jigging update. How does the update affect 35 feet out? I see most larger fish like to hold out from the boat and I pitch to them. Do you have any video of the update at a distance?

[@The_Garmin_Guru]

Yes I do bud. Still working on that video. But I still thinks it’s pretty good.

[@MrChevyman53]

Thanks for putting the video out. I have one question since you seem to be the only one on top of this new update. What happened to the boat icon that showed the beam of your transducer in relation to the boat. I tried every way you can to get it back now it's wack.

[@The_Garmin_Guru]

That got changed a few updates ago. It was never accurate with me. Now it’s based on a compass rose

[@thebasswicker6294]

Great video

[@The_Garmin_Guru]

Thank you again bud.

[@markroberts6453]

Thanks for all your input on livescope. I tried your settings on my 1022 and they did real good, much better than before. I have one question, after I did my update a month or so ago, I no longer can overlay my speed on my screen. Have you heard of anyone else having this problem.

[@The_Garmin_Guru]

From what I was hearing there were some bugs in the new update. Watch the video I put out on a force update and reinstall the new update again from a card and that should do the trick

[@markroberts6453]

@@The_Garmin_Guru Thanks Bud, You do a great job on your video's, keep up the good work.

Bro I’m learning so much about my system

[@The_Garmin_Guru]

Thanks Zeno

[@johnreeves3224]

I’m confused about which updates we’re talking about. The “last “ update vs the color gain update. Do you know what version # these are? Thanks enjoy your videos.

[@The_Garmin_Guru]

The color limit was the last update bud. I think it’s 26.10

[@mokush4me412]

I’m still running the 15.10v on my 93sv uhd unit. I don’t like fixing what’s already working good lol

[@The_Garmin_Guru]

That’s my advice every single update

[@MrChevyman53]

Maybe when you're in contact with Garmin you can ask them about that issue also. Let us have the old boat icon back period at present it is 180° off from where the transducer is pointing.

[@The_Garmin_Guru]

One thing you can change that might be affecting it. There are two settings. One where the compass rose and beam are set on north up and the other where the heading is up. Does that help you bud.

[@MrChevyman53]

Not really. In both modes no matter how many times I calibrate the compass , the transducer beam is facing 180ﾟ off.. For example if I point my transducer to the right side of my boat it shows it on the left side of my boat . If I point my transducer straight forward, The icon shows it facing towards the back of the boat. I've tried recalibrating the compass several times with the same results.

[@rickvann3489]

I told you buddy you just might turn around your opinion might just change back to really liking it. The guys at bass tank really love it.

[@The_Garmin_Guru]

Yea I talk to them a lot. They gave me some insight. But just for you I said I would eat a big bowl of crow. Lol. Thanks for watching bud.

[@rickvann3489]

@Garmin Guru lol... no need to we are all learning. I wish I knew half as much as you do. The fishing I got down 100% the catching I got down 50% the electronics I got down 10% Lol... but your first gut instinct was that you loved the update so I went with that one

[@marcusmorton8101]

Awesome

[@williamc7460]

Will your settings just for the one unit or for all units. Great video and tips

[@The_Garmin_Guru]

These are for the gpsmap series I use. I will try to move one of 93uhd units up front and see about some settings for those also. Sorry bud I should have been more clear on that.

[@SK_CrappieCatching]

Not to be negative but that structure and the fish in it is my biggest issue now and I still say there's No Target Separation..... Before the update I could see the individual limbs and the fish popped and I could target the fish I want......I couldn't do that with the the way your screen shows...... There's ZERO target separation on structure on the bottom...... My opinion.....

[@The_Garmin_Guru]

I understand they are saying that not everyone is getting affected the same. And in they brush pile on my video you won’t see many limbs it’s as thick as hair on a dogs back. I put that nasty joker out. Lol. It’s definitely not perfect but it’s all we got until they give us the short update.

[@SK_CrappieCatching]

@@The_Garmin_Guru Me being a guide I've had to put several hours into getting the best that I can put off this unit..... This update has definitely made job harder as I have to pass over several fish that I would be able to see and catch pre-update.....I look for the revised update daily sometimes twice a day.....LOL

[@billpaden9423]

Are running the LVS 32 tranducer. I did purchase the 25.1 update but I have not download loaded it yet I have a 1022. What update version was yours. I can't keep up with all the new updates.

[@The_Garmin_Guru]

Yes there isn’t another transducer available yet. The lvs34 is coming but has been delayed again. 26.2

[@Dr_T_Harris]

Unrelated question: is it possible to change a setting where you can quick-adjust your depth setting from the active livescope screen within different increments quickly? Mine currently goes from 5 to 10 to 20 to 30. I commonly want to go to 15 but digging into the settings takes time And I don’t find that I do it. Any help is appreciated?!!!

[@The_Garmin_Guru]

Which unit do you have bud

[@Dr_T_Harris]

GPSMAP 1022

[@The_Garmin_Guru]

@@Dr_T_Harris the only way I know is in the settings and you can adjust one foot at a time

[@Dr_T_Harris]

@@The_Garmin_Guru I was afraid of that, I wish you were able to dial it in 1 foot increments from your active livescope screen.
