Optimizing the Depth Range for Sonar Targets
When the image of the
bottom does not appear
close to the bottom of
the LCD display, the
Legend 2000 Series is
not fully optimizing the
display to show sonar
targets, such as fish, that
are very close together.
To enhance the ability of
the unit to separate sonar
targets and to optimize the display for maximum
resolution, follow these steps:

1. Make sure the Legend 2000 Series is operating in Automatic

Mode.

2. Push the R

ANGE

knob. An adjustment indicator appears at the lower

right corner of the C

HART

W

INDOW

.

3. Turn the R

ANGE

knob counterclockwise until the image of bottom is

close to the bottom of the LCD display but still shows the area of
interest.

Note: As the depth of the water increases, the

L

EGEND

2000 S

ERIES

changes the depth range to keep the bottom on-screen. The

L

EGEND

2000 S

ERIES

uses a depth range to keep the bottom

contour close to the bottom of the display.

To return the depth range to normal viewing, turn the
unit off and back on again using the

G

AIN

knob. This is

the only way to reset the depth range to normal
viewing.

Optimizing the Depth Range for Second Return
To optimize the depth
range for viewing the
second return, follow
these steps.

1. Make sure the L

EGEND

2000

S

ERIES

is operating in

Automatic.

2. Push the R

ANGE

knob. An

adjustment indicator appears
at the lower right corner of
the C

HART

W

INDOW

.

3. Turn the R

ANGE

knob clockwise until the second return is visible on

the display.

4. To return the depth range to normal viewing, rotate the R

ANGE

knob

counterclockwise until the depth range stops updating.

Note: The second return does not appear at many of the deeper
depth ranges. The appearance of the second return depends
on depth of the water, water conditions, bottom hardness and
the gain setting.

The

L

EGEND

2000 S

ERIES

operates with this offset depth

range until it is returned to the original settings, or the
unit is turned off, after which the unit defaults to
factory settings.

Bottom Lock Zoom Mode

B

TM

L

OCK

(Bottom Lock)

mode tracks the bottom
similarly to Automatic
mode; however, the
display shows a full range
view on right and a
zoomed window on the
left. The zoomed window
provides added display
resolution for separating
sonar returns that are very
close together, such as
those caused by fish
suspended close to the
bottom.

As the depth changes, the

L

EGEND

2000 S

ERIES

automatically keeps the bottom visible in the zoomed
window and the full range view. In the full range view,
horizontal zoom preview bars define the area of
bottom being enlarged. The default setting varies
based on the depth range; however, this setting can
be changed to show more area around the bottom, or
to show the bottom in greater detail.
