Simulator and Feature Memory
The LEGEND 3000 SERIES contains a
SIMULATOR that allows you to use the
unit as though you are on the water.
Note: International models include multiple
languages and measurements in metres, feet
or fathoms. Temperature includes ¡C.
The SIMULATOR is an invaluable aid to
USING THE LEGEND 3000 SERIES
learning the features and functions of the LEGEND 3000 SERIES. All controls
are operational and settings can be changed to experiment with various
features. An indicator appears at the bottom left of the display when

The LEGEND 3000 SERIES represents a new way of thinking about fishing operating in SIMULATOR mode.
electronics. It combines state-of-the-art electronics with the detail of a
traditional sonar paper chart recorder to create the fishfinder of the future.
Minimal, easy-to-understand knob controls provide access to the most
important features. The LEGEND 3000 SERIES eliminates confusion created by
too many buttons and menus. High technology, high performance, with “back
to basics” operation makes the LEGEND 3000 SERIES the ideal choice of the
serious angler.
There are two ways to start the SIMULATOR. The method to use depends on
whether a transducer is connected.
Power On with No
Transducer
If the LEGEND 3000 SERIES is powered
on with no transducer connected, it
starts up in SIMULATOR mode. No other
steps are needed. In this mode, the LEGEND 3000 SERIES does not
remember any setting changes after power off, but defaults to the factory
settings.
The LEGEND 3000 SERIES uses sonar to locate and define underwater objects.
Sonar technology is based on sound waves sent into the water in a controlled
“beam” from the transducer. Objects within this beam reflect the sonar signal
back. The LEGEND 3000 SERIES very accurately measures the distance to these
objects based on the time it takes for the sonar to return. Each object (bottom,
fish or structure) reflects the sonar uniquely, providing information about its
makeup. The LEGEND 3000 SERIES draws this returned information on the
display.
Power On with Transducer Connected
If the LEGEND 3000 SERIES is powered on with the transducer connected,
the SIMULATOR must be turned on manually. To turn on the SIMULATOR
manually:
The LEGEND 3000 SERIES operates in a wide variety of water conditions, from 2'
to 600' (2000' for the Legend 3000 Deep and 3005 Deep Models).Actual depth
capability depends on many factors such as bottom hardness, water conditions,
and transducer installation. All sonar units typically read to deeper depths in
fresh water than in salt water.
1. Press the Control Panel knob to display the list of
options.
2. Rotate the Control Panel knob to scroll through the list
until Simulator is visible and is highlighted on the
display.
Deep Models Additional Performance
If you purchased a Legend 3000 Deep or a Legend 3005 Deep Model, your
Legend product is equipped with a 50kHz/200kHz dual beam transducer
capable of performing to a depth of 2000 feet. In addition, your unit contains
several extra features that will enhance its sonar performance in deep water.
SONAR VIEW allows you to display the sonar information from either beam or
both beams simultaneously. FILTER control allows the filtering algorithms to be
turned off to show the greatest amount of sonar information. FISH ALARM, FISH
SENSITIVITY, and FISH ID provide advanced signal processing to identify fish
and show their depth and relative size from either beam.
3. Turn the Range knob to turn Simulator from Off to
On.
4. Press the Control Panel knob to clear the screen.
When operating with the Simulator on and the transducer connected,
changes made to the following Control Panel choices are permanently
remembered: Chart Speed, RTS Window, Surface Clutter, Contrast,

small increments, while turning it quickly
makes large changes to the adjustment.
USER INTERFACE
The LEGEND 3000 User Interface is made up of the
following components: knobs and the LCD Display,
which in turn is made up of the RTS and the Chart
Windows.
The LCD Display
The LEGEND 3000 SERIES uses a high-
resolution LCD display to show sonar
information, digital depth, temperature,
speed and other readouts.
Knobs
Four knobs on the LEGEND 3000 SERIES control all
user settings: MODE, GAIN, CONTROL PANEL and RANGE.
A digital depth readout is always displayed
in the upper left corner of the LCD. When
the speed/temp accessory is connected,
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 3000
SERIES is less than 11 volts or greater than
15 volts.
Mode Knob
The MODE knob selects how the LEGEND 3000 SERIES
locates the bottom and graphs the information on
the display. Turn the knob until the pointer aligns
with the desired mode of operation. See Modes of
Operation for more information.
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 3000
SERIES is off, press Gain to turn the
unit on. Press and hold Gain to turn
the unit off. Turn the Gain knob
clockwise to increase the gain; turn
counterclockwise to decrease the
gain. As you turn the knob, only new
sonar information being graphed
shows the effect of the gain change.
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 Bottom
Lock modes, the LEGEND 3000 SERIES selects the depth range. In MANUAL
mode, the depth range is selected by the user.
The sonar returns received by the LEGEND 3000 SERIES are displayed along
the depth range scale in a REAL

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
3000 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.

REAL TIME SONAR™ / CHART WINDOW
drifting very slowly, the RTS WINDOW can show the movement of the fish
through the transducer beam. Moving fish appear as smaller groups of lines
that become progressively larger lines, or vice versa. A grouping of lines
moving vertically indicates a fish changing depth.
The sonar returns received by the LEGEND 3000 SERIES are
displayed along the depth range scale in a REAL TIME
SONAR™ (RTS) WINDOW and CHART WINDOW. The RTS WINDOW
displays new sonar information within the transducer
cone in an expanded, easy-to-see format; the CHART
WINDOW logs old RTS WINDOW information to show a contour
view of the bottom and structure.
The Chart Window
The CHART WINDOW creates a historical log of sonar returns from stored RTS
information. As the boat moves, variations in the depth and sonar return changes are
charted to form an image of the bottom contour. The most recent sonar returns are
charted on the right side of the window; as new information is received, the older
information is moved across the display.
Real Time Sonar™ (RTS)
Window
RTS Wide “A” scope mode
Real Time Sonar (RTS)
Window
The CHART WINDOW also indicates the composition of the bottom. A hard bottom,
such as compacted sediment or flat rock, appears as a dark, thin line across the
display. A soft bottom, such as mud or sand, appears as a thicker line that
contains a transition from darker to lighter grays. Bottoms made up of many rocks
have a broken, random appearance.
The REAL TIME SONAR (RTS)
WINDOW shows instantaneous
sonar returns from the bottom,
structure and fish that are within
the transducer beam. The RTS
WINDOW updates with new sonar
information up to 30 times per
second in shallow water (deeper
water will slow the refresh rates).
The RTS WINDOW responds to
quickly-changing depths in a
way similar to a flasher type
sonar display. Interpreting
the RTS information requires
some skill; comparing the
RTS data with the data in
the CHART WINDOW, however,
makes the RTS information
easy to understand.
Sloped Bottoms
Bottoms having a large degree of slope also present a unique picture. These
generally have a thicker black band representing the bottom directly under the boat.
Equal areas of gray above and below the black band represent sonar returns from
around the boat.

except in areas with a hard

feature which permits the second return to be visible
in any depth range up to one-half the maximum depth
of the unit. See MODES OF OPERATION for details.
When the RTS WINDOW is wide enough, it plots the depth and intensity
(amplitude) of a sonar return using horizontal black lines, where line length
indicates return strength, and the vertical placement of the lines next to the
depth range scale indicates the depth.
Structure
When the RTS WINDOW is narrow enough, it plots the depth and intensity of a
The LEGEND 3000 SERIES displays structure, such as
submerged grass, brush, trees and wrecks on the
bottom. Structure can be distinguished by comparing
the area just above and below the main bottom return.
Usually structure shows as areas of dark to light gray
on top of a dark bottom contour. The appearance of
structure is greatly affected by boat speed and
direction; to repeat the same image it is often
necessary to travel the same speed and direction over
the location where the structure was originally
located.
sonar return using grayscale lines, where the intensity of the sonar return is
divided into 16 levels of grayscale, with the most intense returns shown in
black, and less intense sonar returns shown as progressively lighter shades
of gray. When the view is narrow enough, the combination of the grouping of
the lines and the grayscale level helps to identify the bottom composition and
structure. The bottom displays as the largest grouping of black horizontal
lines, and typically has gray lines underneath. A harder bottom shows less
gray below; a soft bottom shows more gray below. Structure appears above
the bottom as a cluster of lines with varying lengths and gray shades.
In any view, fish appear as smaller groupings of sonar returns between the
bottom and surface. Often, large fish within a structure will show as a strong
return within a grouping of smaller returns. When the boat is stationary or

important to remember that sonar cannot distinguish between
a fish and some other object suspended in the water.
Regardless of the object the sonar detects, it has the
possibility of being drawn as an arch.
The LEGEND 3000 SERIES is also capable of showing layers
of water having different temperatures. These
temperature differences, called thermoclines, appear
at different depths, depending on current conditions.
A thermocline typically appears as a continuous band
of many gray levels moving across the display at the
same depth. Thermoclines always appear above the
bottom.
Sonar Views (Deep Models Only)
The dual beam (50/200kHz) sonar information can be
displayed in several different views in the CHART WINDOW. In the
200kHz view, only the sonar returns and FISH ID from the
200kHz beam are displayed. Typically, the 200kHz
Fish Appearance
Schools of bait fish as well as individual fish are clearly
visible on the LEGEND 3000 SERIES display. Bait fish appear
as “clouds” having different shapes and sizes
depending on the number of fish and boat speed.
Individual fish appear as smaller black and gray lines,
often appearing as a “fish arch.” A fish arch may form
as the fish moves through the sonar beam. Due to the
transducer beam angle, the distance to the fish
decreases as the fish moves into the beam, and then
increases as it moves out again. When the CHART
WINDOW graphs this distance change, an arch
appears. Boat speed, the CHART SPEED setting and
movement of the fish greatly affect the shape of the
arch. When the boat and the fish are moving slowly
relative to each other, the fish creates an elongated
arch. When the boat and the fish are moving quickly
relative to each other, the fish creates a shorter arch.
A partial arch forms when the fish does not move
through the entire cone angle.
information provides greater bottom detail up to 800' and
works well while the boat is in motion. The 50kHz view only
shows the sonar returns and FISH ID from the 50kHz beam.
The 50kHz information provides depth accuracy up to 2000'
and shows more targets in its wider beam. The Split Screen
view shows the 50kHz and 200kHz sonar information in
side-by-side windows on the display. The 200kHz/50kHz
view is a composite of the 200kHz sonar information and
the target information from the 50kHz sonar. See CONTROL
PANELS for details on selecting the sonar views.

Before You Call Customer Support
Many requests for repair received by Techsonic
involve units that do not actually need repair. These
units are returned “no problem found.” If you have a
problem with your LEGEND 3000 SERIES, use the following
troubleshooting guide before calling Customer
Support or sending your unit in for repair. The LEGEND
3000 SERIES contains several tools that can aid in
determining if there is a problem, as well as how to
isolate and repair a problem in many cases.
3. There is no bottom reading visible on the display.
There are several possible causes for this condition. If
the loss of bottom information occurs only at high
boat speeds, the transducer needs to be adjusted. If
the digital depth readout is working but there is no
bottom visible on-screen, it is possible that the depth
range has been adjusted manually to a range lower
than that needed to display the bottom. Also, in very
deep water, it may be necessary to increase the GAIN
setting manually in order to maintain a graphic
depiction of the bottom.
1. Nothing happens when I turn the unit on.
Check the power cable connection at both ends. Be
sure the cable is connected correctly to a reliable
power source—red lead to positive, black lead to
negative or ground. Ensure the power available at the
mount is between 10 and 20 VDC. If the unit is wired
through a fuse panel, ensure the panel is powered;
accessory fuse panels often are controlled by a
separate switch or by the boat’s ignition switch. A
fuse also can appear to be good when in fact it is not.
Check the fuse with a tester or replace it with a fuse
known to be good.
If you are using a transducer switch to connect two
transducers to the LEGEND 3000 SERIES, make sure that the
switch is in the correct position to connect a
transducer, and that the transducer is submerged in
water. (If a trolling motor transducer is selected and
the trolling motor is out of the water, no sonar
information will appear.)
If none of the above solves the problem, inspect the
transducer cable from end to end for breaks, kinks, or
cuts in the outer casing of the cable, and repair after
disconnecting the cable from both the unit and the
transducer. If the transducer is connected to the unit
through a switch, temporarily connect it directly to the
unit and try again. If none of these items identifies an
obvious problem, the transducer itself may be at fault.
Be sure to include the transducer if returning the unit
for repair.
Check the power connection to the LEGEND 3000 SERIES. It
is possible to force the power cable connector into
the collector plug incorrectly. If the connector is
reversed, the unit will not work. Examine the contacts
on the back of the unit to ensure there is no corrosion.
Ensure the cables are properly installed into the
collector plug and the collector plug is properly
seated into the LEGEND 3000 SERIES.

5. The unit comes on before I press POWER, and won’t turn off.
Check the transducer cable—if the outer jacket of the cable has been cut
and the cable is in contact with bare metal, you need to disconnect the
cable from the unit, then repair the cut with electrical tape. If there is no
problem with the cable, disconnect the transducer from the unit and see if
the problem is corrected, to isolate the source of the problem.
TECHSONIC INDUSTRIES, INC. ONE YEAR
LIMITED WARRANTY
We warrant the original retail purchaser that products made by Techsonic
Industries have been manufactured free from defects in materials and
workmanship. This warranty is effective for one year from the date of
original retail purchase. Techsonic Industries products found to be
defective and covered by this warranty will be replaced or repaired free of
charge at Techsonic Industries' option and returned to the customer
freight prepaid. Techsonic Industries' sole responsibility under this
warranty is limited to the repair or replacement of a product that has been
deemed defective by Techsonic Industries. Techsonic Industries is not
responsible for charges connected with the removal of such product or
reinstallation of replaced or repaired parts.
6. I get gaps in the reading at high speeds.
Your transducer needs to be adjusted. If the transducer is transom-
mounted, there are two adjustments available to you: height and running
angle. Make small adjustments and run the boat at high speeds to
determine the effect. It may take several tries to optimize high speed
operation. This can also be a result of air or turbulence in the transducer
location caused by rivets, ribs, etc.

9. The display shows many black dots at high speeds and high
sensitivity settings.
You are seeing noise or interference caused by one of several sources.
Noise can be caused by other electronic devices. Turn off any nearby
electronics and see if the problem goes away. Noise can also be caused
by the engine. If engine noise is causing the interference, the problem will
intensify at higher RPMs. Increase the engine speed with the boat
stationary to isolate this cause. Propeller cavitation can appear as noise
on-screen. If the transducer is mounted too close to the propeller, the
turbulence generated can interfere with the sonar signal. Ensure that the
transducer is mounted at least 15” (38cm) from the prop.
Some states do not allow limitations on an implied warranty, or the
exclusion of incidental or consequential damages, so the above exclusions
may not apply to you. You may also have other rights, which vary from
state to state.
A separate Warranty is provided by international distributors for the
international models. This warranty is included by your local distributor
and this distributor maintains local service for your unit.
10. The screen does not display a full fish arch.
Check the running angle of the transducer. If the running angle is too
great, a full fish arch may not appear. Reduce the running angle of the
transducer. Several incremental adjustments may be necessary.
