Please carefully consider the following before installing your transducer. TRANSDUCER MOUNTING OPTIONS A. Transom Mount- The Humminbird high speed transducer allows the transducer element to be mounted below the bottom of the boat hull keeping the transducer out of turbulent water and...
Page 3
B. Inside Hull Mount- The high speed transducer can be mounted inside the hull (without pivot assembly) using the proper two-part epoxy, such as Humminbird’s epoxy kit. Even though there is some loss of signal in shooting through the hull, your LCR will perform well with this type of installation.

Once the location is determined mark and drill three 7/64” dia.. holes noted on the template. Attach the metal bracket using three #10 self-threading screws supplied. Be sure to align holes in the center of the Bracket slots. On some aluminum boats it may be necessary to use a wood back-up plate. It is important to use a silicone sealant between the screwhead and bracket in order to prevent leaking.

NOTE: On boats with more than 15 degree deadrise angle it may be necessary to mount the transducer slightly off parallel with the water level. (See Figure E) Mark and drill the three 9/64” dia. holes as shown on the template. Attach the metal bracket using the three #10 self threading screws supplied.

Step 4 TRANSDUCER ASSEMBLY- Insert the transducer assembly into the metal bracket from the bottom. Push up until the holes in the plastic pivot align with the uppermost holes in the bracket. Slide the O-ring on to the headed pin and insert it through the two parts. Assemble by screwing the ¼”x3/8”...

Techsonic Industries, Inc. will not be responsible for any damage due to the mounting of your transducer in this manner. NOTE: An Epoxy Kit (Part N. EPK) is available from Humminbird. This Epoxy Kit has been formulated for Inside Hull Transducer Installation.

Position the swivel base and drill four ¼” diameter holes. Note: The LCR hole pattern Is the same as for all Humminbird flasher units. Use hardware provided to mount this base to the boat. Next place the gimbal bracket on the swivel base and attach with four small machine screws, provided.

Install the mounting knobs and tighten snugly. The unit can now be swiveled and tilted to any desired position.
INSTALLING THE CABLES Your LCR comes equipped with Humminbird’s new Angle-Lock power and transducer connectors. The power connector is identified with the letter P on the back of the plug.

It plugs into the outlet on the back of the unit marked “Power”. The transducer connector is identified with the letter T and plugs into the outlet on the back of the unit marked “Transducer”. Note: An adapter (AD-4) is available to allow use of an old waterproof (BNC) transducer with the LCR, but be sure that the transducer is a 16degree.
Increase your boat speed to ensure that you get a continuous bottom reading as the boat moves. Your CVR 1000 and its Sensor are designed to operate a up to 75 mpg, so feel free to test them at very high speeds.

READING THE CVR 1000 SCREEN TFT Display Unlike color video depth sounders that use large picture tubes, the CVR 1000 features a liquid crystal TFT display- the leading edge in LCD technology. The TFT screen has over 114.000 pixels, so small that they can hardly be seen by the naked eye. These individual red, green and blue pixels are each controlled by a Thin Film Transistor (TFT).

As a fish begins to enter the cone angle, its signal is weak and is displayed in a “weak” color such as light blue or green. As you move directly over the fish, putting it in the center of the cone, the signal gets stronger and changes to “stronger”...

OPERATING THE CVR 1000 Power On/Off: Pressing this button once turns the CVR 1000 on. Pressing it once again turns it off. When the unit is turned off, holding this button down for about 2 seconds activates the built-in simulator.

2. Depth Range Automatic setting: on The CVR 1000 automatically finds the bottom, and then sets and displays the ideal depth range when you turn the unit on. If you choose to leave the auto range change on, the depth ranges will change automatically.
Page 19
Automatic setting: brightness, 7 or greater; color, blue mode or previous setting The brightness and the colors displayed on the CVR 1000 screen can be changed to suit your personal preference of the current sunlight level. You can choose a deep blue background with a black bottom reading, or a black background with a rd bottom reading.
