  • Today's video we will go over several ways to create custom screen combos as well as how to edit them!
    I will also touch on why choosing the correct screen layout for your combo can make or break your performance.

    Exactly what I was needing. I’m new to the Garmin world with my Echomap 73sv UHD and have struggled with some of the features. You’ve cleared a lot of my confusion up.

    Thanks so much for this info! I have a newer Garmin like you have in the video (I got it last winter). When I went out for the first time this year my saved #1 combo was there but disappeared after I looked at a different screen and when trying to make the combo preset again on Saturday it kept saying the clear VU was not available for some of the combos that I did have last year. Clear VU would work on some of the combos. Any idea what I might be doing wrong or does the machine need to some how start from scratch again? Thanks

    • @MGMarineTech
      @MGMarineTech  3 роки тому

      I think I know what you are talking about and I forgot to mention that in the video.
      When you create a combo on the water, it will sometimes come up as transmission disabled or sonar not available. Just ignore that message.
      Once you hit done it should work as it should

    Going crazy here, lol I know this is a old video but how can you show depth on (every) screen you go to? Confusing, but when I have my overlay nymbers set to show, it doesn't seem to show on every screen I bring up... Make sense?

  • @ernie9819
    @ernie9819 2 роки тому

    Great information! I know if I'm running side and down view as a combo, they have to be different frequencies, but can I run the higher frequency from my GT56 side vu transom mount and then have the GT54 on the trolling motor using down vu with the higher frequency since they'll be 18' apart as a combo screen. Heck I might not be able to run two separate ducers on the same screen, being a rookie, I hope you'll understand!

    • @MGMarineTech
      @MGMarineTech  2 роки тому +1

      Hey Ernie with that setup you will have no issues for a couple of reason. 1 the gt54 in down view only operates in 800khz (I don’t remember the exact frequency) and 2 the distance.
      However, you could do the same thing with the gt56 alone. Run the side imaging on 1070 and the down imaging on 810.
      But you could make a combo with one screen the 56 and the other screen the 54. The units need to be networked and you have to go into source and pick which screen you want to read from which transducer.

    • @MGMarineTech
      @MGMarineTech  2 роки тому +1

      I personally haven’t come across that issue yet, knock on wood. Most of the time it seems to be a faulty connection that’s just not plugged in all the way or the cradle has gone bad to the unit.

    • @MGMarineTech

      Unfortunately I’m not sure there is a setting to show the maps in anything other than 1’ contours
      You may try to lower the detail setting on the maps.
      Hope that helps

    Question. If you have an issue with your transducer (say clearvu isn't working, but your 2d and sideview are) if you set the Garmin to the "demo" mode will the clearvu still be messed up? or will it show as if it was working fine due to the demo being pre recorded. Seems obvious that it would show as if its fine, but I figured I would ask to see if that's an easy way to troubleshoot the transducer.

    • @MGMarineTech
      @MGMarineTech  2 роки тому

      The demo mode is pre recorded and will look the same even if the transducer isn’t connected to the unit.

    Question, does the 126sv have a blue screen when you choose traditional? Not like the old traditional white scream.

    Hi just changed from lowrance to Garmin eco maps and I want to run my motor gauges as a combo can this be done
    Also is it possible to mirror the screen to I pad through active captain or wi fi thanks for your videos

    • @MGMarineTech
      @MGMarineTech  3 роки тому

      I’m not sure about a combo like that, but you can do a screen overlay that will show the same data. Look at my video “how to display depth on charts” that will show you the process.
      As far as mirroring your screen to a IPad that can only be done on GPSMAP units

      It should still be in one of the sonar screens, but you can also add a overlay.

      There is some more dimension to “downview/clearview/down imaging)
      Same goes for side imaging.
      They are all ways to view 3D space on a 2d screen
