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

default to factory settings after the unit is turned off.

Chart Speed

C

HART

S

PEED

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

C

HART

W

INDOW

,

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

C

HART

S

PEED

in relation to boat speed is often

preferred.

The

C

setting is retained in memory after the

V

IEW

(Deep Models only)

selects the source of the
sonar information being
displayed. 200kHz displays
sonar information and

from the 200kHz beam

only. 50kHz displays sonar information and

F

ISH

ID

from

the 50kHz beam only.

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

C

ONTROL

P

ANEL

L

IGHT

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 1000 Series is turned off. The factory setting
is

O

N

full at power up and automatic decrease to

O

FF

.

Contrast

C

ONTRAST

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

L

EGEND

1000 S

ERIES

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 C

ONTRAST

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

S

ONAR

™. Selecting

N

ARROW

decreases the width of the

RTS W

INDOW

leaving more

space for the

C

HART

W

INDOW

, but some sonar returns will

not be visible. Selecting

W

IDE

makes the

RTS W

INDOW

wider and shows more of the sonar intensity
information, but less space on the LCD is available for
sonar history. Selecting

O

FF

turns off the

RTS W

INDOW

and

the entire LCD shows sonar history.

Note: When the RTS Window is adjusted to Wide, no grayscale
information is shown.

The

RTS W
