Humminbird 3000 Fish Finder User Manual


 
After several seconds without pressing or turning the
knob, the D
EPTH
R
ANGE
adjustment indicator will disappear
from the screen automatically. The L
EGEND
3000 S
ERIES
does
not make adjustments to keep the bottom information on-
screen. If the depth is deeper or shallower than the ranges
on the display, the bottom contour will not be visible.
The manual range settings made to the LEGEND
3000 SERIES
default to factory settings after the unit is
turned off.
Chart Speed
CHART SPEED selects the speed
at which the bottom
information moves across the
display. Options available
range from 1 (very slow) to 8 (very fast). Selecting a
faster rate shows more information in the
CHART WINDOW,
but it moves across the display very quickly. Selecting
a slower rate keeps the information on the display
longer, but the chart information becomes
compressed and may be more difficult to interpret.
Setting CHART SPEED in relation to boat speed is often
preferred.
The CHART SPEED setting is retained in memory after the
LEGEND 3000 SERIES is turned off. The factory setting is 6.
Sonar View
SONAR VIEW (Deep Models only)
selects the source of the
sonar information being
displayed. 200kHz displays
sonar information and FISH ID
from the 200kHz beam only.
50kHz displays sonar
information and FISH ID from
the 50kHz beam only. S
PLIT
SCREEN presents the sonar
information from the 200kHz
and 50kHz beams
simultaneously in side-by-
side windows. 200K
HZ/50KHZ
displays the sonar
information from the 200kHz
beam and target information
from the 50kHz beam.
The
SONAR VIEW setting is retained in memory after the
unit is turned off. The factory setting is 200KHZ.
Light
L
IGHT
activates the display
backlight and selects the
brightness level. The
backlight is manually-controlled except when the unit
first powers up. During initial power up, the backlight
turns on at full brightness so the display will be visible
at night. The backlight will then begin to decrease in
intensity automatically until it is off in order to save
energy. Selecting the CONTROL P
ANEL LIGHT
choice stops the
automatic off process, keeping the backlight on at the
intensity level selected.
The Light setting defaults to factory settings after the
Legend 3000 Series is turned off. The factory setting
is ON full at power up and automatic decrease to OFF.
Contrast
CONTRAST enhances the
viewability of the LCD by
making it darker or lighter.
Selecting a higher number
darkens the display; selecting a lower number lightens
the display. The LEGEND 3000 SERIES uses sophisticated
electronics to adjust the contrast level automatically;
however, at times of extreme heat or cold, manually
adjusting the contrast for best display may be needed.
The CONTRAST setting is retained in memory after the unit is turned off as
long as it is set between 6 and 10. The factory setting is
8.
RTS Window
RTS W
INDOW
selects the width of
the window dedicated to R
EAL
T
IME SONAR
™. Selecting
N
ARROW
decreases the width of the RTS WINDOW leaving more
space for the CHART WINDOW, but some sonar returns will
not be visible. Selecting WIDE makes the RTS WINDOW
wider and shows more of the sonar intensity
information, but less space on the LCD is available for
sonar history. Selecting OFF turns off the RTS WINDOW and
the entire LCD shows sonar history.
Note: When the RTS Window is adjusted to Wide, no grayscale
information is shown.
The RTS W
INDOW
setting is retained in memory after the
L
EGEND 3000 S
ERIES
is turned off. The factory setting is
NARROW.
