MEGA Live Interference

The MEGA Live Imaging accessory functions as a network-aware transducer, specifically engineered to detect other sonar sources within the same One-Boat Network. By leveraging its interference rejection capabilities, it significantly reduces cross-talk from other active transducers, ensuring clearer and more reliable sonar imagery.

This function is automatic with MEGA Live 2, but must be activated by the user with the steps below for 1st Generation MEGA Live.

  • ⚠️ Important Note: If any sonar units are not connected to the same network as the MEGA Live system, they will not be detected. As a result, the interference rejection feature cannot mitigate noise from these sources, which may lead to increased interference or image distortion.
    See the example below for a visual representation.
