Garmin LiveScope LVS12 Trolling Motor Barrel Mount, For Minn Kota and MotorGuide, Fits All Barrel Diameters

Overview

The Garmin 010-12846-00 is a trolling motor barrel mount that secures a Panoptix LiveScope LVS12 transducer on the lower unit barrel so the transducer stays aligned as the motor steers.

The mount uses molded teeth so the transducer angle holds its position and can be re-indexed in clicks for forward-view or down-view aiming. When assembling the bracket to the transducer, tighten the shoulder screw to 2.5 lb-ft (3.4 N·m).

This is a solid fit for bow-mounted trolling motor setups on fishing boats where you want the transducer mounted on the barrel and still able to deploy and stow with the motor.

Key features

• Barrel-mount bracket for Panoptix LiveScope LVS12 transducer installations on a trolling motor
• Molded teeth with detents so the transducer angle stays where you set it and can be re-indexed in clicks
• Adjusts around a wide range of trolling motor barrel diameters, including many Minn Kota and MotorGuide motors
• Forward-view and down-view orientation changes without tools
• Black finish

Compatibility and fit

This mount is intended for the trolling motor barrel, not the shaft. Check for clearance around the lower unit barrel, and confirm the transducer can sweep through its aiming range without contacting the skeg, prop area, or motor housing.

It is mounting hardware only, so it does not change your sonar module, power, or display wiring. Pair it with the correct LiveScope LVS12 components already used in your system.

Installation and setup

After clamping the mount in place, secure the transducer cable to the shaft or another fixed point so the cable cannot flex at the transducer, rub on the deploy and stow hinge, or pinch when the motor is stowed. Cable ties are commonly used for this step.

Route the cable away from high-current wiring where possible to reduce the chance of electrical noise, and re-check clamp tension after the first few trips.

On-water use notes

Small changes in transducer angle can change what you see on screen. Once you find the angle that matches your normal speed and motor depth, it helps to note the detent position so you can return to the same setup after trailering or when making adjustments on the water.
