Notice the Fish Alarm indication on the screen. Any fish (or objects not on the bottom) will trigger a short fish alarm sound indication.

Step 6

Press the Auto Sensitivity On/Off button to change to the manual mode. Notice that the word AUTO in the lower left corner of the display has gone off. Also, the area below the bottom is no longer blacked out. You can now change the sensitivity setting by pressing the manual set and _A or * buttons. Notice that the digital bottom reading goes off in the manual mode. Note: In the manual mode the depth range will not automatically change. The automatic depth change works only in the automatic mode. Push the Auto On/Off button to go back to the automatic mode. Step 7

Steps 1 through 6 have verified that your LCR is working properly. You are now ready to increase boat speed to test the transducer installation. As you increase boat speed the LCR should give a continuous bottom return. With a proper transducer installation your LCR will perform well at high speeds.

TROUBLE SHOOTING: If at high speeds the bottom return is not continuous or there are gaps in the bottom, then the transducer installation or location is such that air is going under the transducer face. Refer back to the transducer mounting procedure for adjustments or for other mounting options.

TROUBLE SHOOTING: If at high speed and high sensitivity setting the display begins to blacken, then cavitation noise from the propeller is being received by the transducer. The transducer should be moved away from the prop or to another location to reduce the cavitation noise.

TROUBLE SHOOTING: If a fault condition is displayed on the screen, turn the unit off and then on again. If this does not clear the fault condition the unit should be returned for repair.

LEARNING TO USE SCREEN MEMORY

The operation of the LCR Screen Memory was discussed in detail earlier in this manual. By following the steps below you will be able to easily learn how to use this unique feature of your unit.

Step 1

Your LCR has been pre-programmed at the factory with 16 screens. These pre-programmed screens will aid in your learning and hopefully let you have some fun, too.

Press the Mode Select Button to change from the digital depth display (in the lower right corner of the screen) to the Memory Display (See Figure 21). If the screen number is not 1, press the Memory Select Button (or hold it down) until 1 is displayed.

Step 2

To recall screen number 1 simply press the Memory Recall Button. The left side of the screen will now display the screen that was pre-programmed at the factory.

Step 3

Now let's store a screen into location 1. Press the Store R (right) button. Recall screen 1 by pressing the recall button and see that the old pre-programmed screen has been erased and has been replaced by the information from the right half of the screen. This screen will remain in location 1 until another screen is stored in its place.

A screen may be stored at any time, but you might find it easiest to stop the display before storing a screen.

A screen does not have to be recalled before storing another screen in its place. For example, to store a new screen in location 1, first use the memory select button to go to location 1. Now the left side or right side can be stored by pressing the Store L or Store R button. The Recall Button does not have to be pressed unless you want to see the stored information before it is erased and replaced by the new information.

LCR 8000D, LCR 8000 specifications

The Humminbird LCR 8000 and LCR 8000D are advanced fish finders designed for avid anglers who seek precision and reliability on the water. These devices are known for their high-performance features that enhance the fishing experience, making it easier to locate fish and understand underwater structures.

One of the standout characteristics of the LCR 8000 series is its large display, which typically measures 8 inches. The screen is designed to offer exceptional clarity and visibility, even in bright sunlight. With a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels, users can expect sharp images and detailed sonar readings. The LCR 8000D version takes this a step further with additional features such as a split-screen display, allowing users to monitor multiple functions simultaneously.

These models integrate advanced sonar technology, including dual-beam sonar capabilities. The LCR 8000 and 8000D can operate on both narrow and wide beam frequencies, enabling anglers to cover more water and get a more comprehensive view of underwater environments. The fish symbol identification feature provides an intuitive way for users to discern between fish and other objects, enhancing their chances of a successful catch.

Another notable feature is the AutoZoom capability, which automatically adjusts the viewing area to focus on the depth range where fish are most likely to be present. This real-time information helps users make quick decisions about where to cast their lines.

Additionally, the LCR 8000D offers an integrated temperature sensor, providing real-time water temperature readings that can be crucial for understanding fish behavior. The ability to record sonar logs is another innovative aspect, allowing users to review their fishing trips and analyze data for future outings.
