Panoptix™ PS30
-
"Upgraded to the LiveScope Plus, and it’s a total game-changer. The detail is unreal — you can see fish flick their fins and move through structure in real time. Absolutely worth every cent."
Mark H. – Queensland -
"The GLS 10 module connected perfectly with my GPSMAP 8410. Everything synced right away — no fuss, no errors. Clear readings and smooth live scanning even in rough water."
Shane D. – Western Australia -
"This tech is insane — I can actually see fish moving towards my lure. The Panoptix system gives me total control offshore. Feels like having underwater radar."
Emma L. – New South Wales
PANOPTIX™ PS30: LiveVü Down & RealVü 3-D Sonar
The Panoptix™ PS30 Down Transducer was Garmin's first all-seeing sonar system designed to show you fish and bait swimming around under your boat **in real time**, even while stationary. It provides **three remarkable views**—LiveVü Down, RealVü 3-D Down, and RealVü 3-D Historical—giving you the unique ability to see your lure, baitfish, and large targets swimming below your boat, bringing fishfinding to life. A transom mounting kit is included.
ALL-SEEING IS BELIEVING: REAL-TIME VIEWS
The PS30 utilizes multi-beam phased array technology to provide a comprehensive, real-time picture of the water column directly beneath your boat.
THREE CORE PANOPTIX VIEWS
- LiveVü Down: Provides real-time moving sonar images directly below your vessel, allowing you to track your lure and see fish swimming toward or away from the boat.
- RealVü 3-D Down: Shows history of only one sweep, allowing your boat to be stationary while still seeing the surrounding water column in a detailed 3-D representation.
- RealVü 3-D Historical: Used while your boat is moving to show the entire water column you have passed over in 3-D, from the bottom to the surface and all fish in between.
EXCELLENT RANGE & CONNECTIVITY
The PS30 provides robust coverage up to 300 feet and is built for seamless integration with your compatible Chartplotter (e.g., GPSMAP® or ECHOMAP™ series [1]).
- **Simple Plug-and-Play:** Easily connects to your system using the simple Garmin Marine Network connector (large RJ45).
- **Range:** Offers a maximum depth of 300 feet and utilizes a wide 120° x 60° beamwidth for excellent coverage beneath the boat.
Inverell Boating Centre Expert Note:
The PS30 is a powerful, earlier-generation Panoptix unit optimized for downward-facing live views and 3D historical scanning. It draws very low power (10W typical) and connects via the large RJ45 Garmin Marine Network port. Note that the LVS series (LiveScope) offers the updated standard for live scanning in Forward mode.

Never Misses a Beat
The GSD 28 sonar module hasn’t skipped once. Tracks bottom at full throttle, even in heavy chop. I’ve used other brands, but Garmin is on another level.

They Helped Me Choose the Right Module
I had no idea which sonar box suited my setup. The Inverell Boating Centre team walked me through every option and helped me choose the perfect match for my ECHOMAP. Fantastic support!

Picks Up Fish 300 Feet Down
Wasn’t sure what to expect, but the XR system blew my mind. Even in deep southern waters, I’m getting perfect readings. Great visibility and super clear imaging.
