Thanks for the great video! I've tried to do updates via the active captain and it was a nightmare! Your walk through, although was probably too elementary for your younger viewers, was just what an old fart like me needed....again, thanks so very much!

@howardbouchard2470 4 ай бұрын

Update:my new Garmin unit required me to use Active Captain maybe because I downloaded the app on my phone. The Update Software icon did not show when I loaded the card, required that I create an Active Captain card as only option. It worked easily enough that way.

Is there any need to have your transducer connected when doing the software update?

@tdietrich77 4 ай бұрын

Very good video with clear easy to follow instructions which helped me out. Just curious when the new update comes out do you keep the current version on a separate card incase the most recent update crashes you can revert back to the current one? That is what I was thinking about doing.

@OutdoorQuests 4 ай бұрын

Thank you, I appreciate it! I would recommend waiting a month or so after Garmin (or any software for that matter) releases an update before updating, just incase there are bugs to allow time for them to fix issues.

@1lewishamlad 4 ай бұрын

Great vid. Easy to follow 👍 do you need to turn on your livescope before updating?

@OutdoorQuests 4 ай бұрын

Thank you. Yes, if you have livescope, power on your GLS10 and it'll update when you update your chart plotter.

@dennishartman4720 2 ай бұрын

I’m new to garmin 73sv and have livescope also. In your video you went into livescope simulator. Can we do this with transducer out of water, and do we have to have black box turned on when we do it?

@OutdoorQuests 2 ай бұрын

Simulator mode doesn't require transducer's being connected or turned on. It simulates the transducer(s). You can turn your transducers on out of water for short durations, but Garmin recommends not leaving them on for any extended period of time out of water, as that can damage high-power transducers (1kw and higher transducers). High-powered transducers use water to keep them cool.

I am buying a 106 SV next week . Can I use the card I updated the 126SV to update the new one ?

@OutdoorQuests Ай бұрын

I believe you can. Garmin does have different versions out for the Ultra vs Ultra2 models, so if your models are the same I would suspect you can. Check Garmins website though before taking my word for it.

@danasampson818 Жыл бұрын

I just installed a new 93SV and livescope. I cannot get the Active Captain App to download the software for the livescope. Is downloading from a computer to an SD card the best way to do that?

@OutdoorQuests Жыл бұрын

I think either method works good, but if you're having an issue getting active captain to work downloading the latest update, this method will definitely work. Thanks for watching, I really appreciate it! -Cody

@tammymontgomery3489 3 ай бұрын

Can I used the same card that is in the device now. Or do i need a new card? Old card has files from 2022, and one from 2017. What i am asking is will format the old card that is currently in device and putting new update on it work

@OutdoorQuests 3 ай бұрын

Yes, you can format and use your current card. Just know when you format the card, it'll erase everything that's already on the card.

Thanks If I don’t get the option to Update Soft. I must not have the newest version added to the card? I looked at the SD Card and it showed the latest version 27.0v If that is true. Why can’t I get the Update Software window? Thanks

Is it possible these Micro SD card go bad? Have a 32G Adapter Card. Thanks

@OutdoorQuests 3 ай бұрын

It's possible, but they don't go bad very often. You can also contact garmin support if you're having issues.

@daveholte7658 3 ай бұрын

@@OutdoorQuests I did a test check in properties and said it was defective. It was a lower quality card. So bought a new different brand 32g Class 10 and added the newest software version See if that works. I often wonder if a micro card if inserted mistakenly in another brand of sonar if that could damage the card?

If you followed the video instructions, and it's not working, here's the step-by-step instructions on Garmin's website. Hope this helps. Maybe format the memory card, then load the Garmin files back onto the card, and try again. Thanks for watching, I appreciate it. www8.garmin.com/support/download_details.jsp?id=4749
