Setting the Bow Offset
For forward view Panoptix™ transducers, you can enter a bow offset to compensate the forward distance readings for the transducer installation location. This allows you to view the forward distance from the bow instead of the transducer installation location.
This feature applies to Panoptix transducers in the Garmin FrontVü™, LiveVü Forward, and RealVü 3D Forward sonar views.
