The LEGEND 1000 SERIES User Interface is |
|
made up of the following components: |
|
knobs and the LCD Display, which in | Push ON / OFF |
turn is made up of the RTS (Real Time |
|
Sonar™) and the Chart Windows. |

Knobs
Three knobs on the LEGEND 1000 SERIES control all user settings: GAIN, CONTROL
PANEL and RANGE.
Gain Knob
The GAIN knob controls the gain (sometimes called sensitivity) of the sonar receiver. GAIN also powers the unit ON or OFF. When
the LEGEND 1000 SERIES is off,
press GAIN to turn the unit on. Press and hold GAIN to turn the unit off.
Turn the GAIN knob clockwise Maximum Gain Low Gain

Range Knob
The RANGE knob adjusts the depth ranges used on the display. The RANGE knob has slightly different capabilities in each mode of operation. See
MODES OF OPERATION for specific
information. In all modes, turning the knob clockwise increases the range, while turning it counterclockwise decreases the range. Turning the knob slowly increases the
adjustment in small increments, while turning it quickly makes large changes to the adjustment.

decrease the gain. As you turn the knob, only new sonar information being graphed shows the effect of the gain change.
Increasing the gain shows faint sonar returns from small bait fish and suspended debris in the water, but the display may become too cluttered in some water conditions. Increased gain is also beneficial at deeper depths to maintain a good bottom image and show adequate sonar returns from deep objects. Decreasing the gain eliminates the clutter from the display; however, if adjusted too low, the display may not show many faint sonar returns that could be fish.
Control Panel Knob
The CONTROL PANEL knob accesses features used to adjust some LEGEND 1000 SERIES settings. Push the knob to display the CONTROL PANEL list, then rotate the knob to select a feature for adjustment. A light colored background indicates the selected feature. Turn the RANGE knob to adjust the selected feature. Remove the CONTROL PANEL list from the display by pushing the CONTROL PANEL knob again. If no adjustments are made after a few seconds, the CONTROL PANEL list is removed automatically.

additional digital readouts (such as MPH) are shown below the depth. A voltage readout appears in the bottom left when the input voltage to the LEGEND 1000 SERIES is less than 10 volts or greater than 16 volts.
A depth range scale appears close to the right side of the LCD display. This scale indicates the distance from the surface of the water to a depth range sufficient to show the bottom. For example, in 18 feet of water, a 20 foot depth range is selected. The depth range scale can be controlled automatically or manually depending on the mode of operation. In
AUTOMATIC and BTM LOCK (BOTTOM LOCK) modes, the LEGEND 1000
SERIES selects the depth range. In MANUAL mode, the depth range is selected by the user.
