Performance

The L 2000 S represents a new way of thinking about fishing
EGEND ERIES
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 L 2000 S

too many buttons and menus. High technology, high performance, with "back
to basics" operation makes the L
serious angler.
The L 2000 S uses sonar to locate and define underwater objects.
EGEND ERIES
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 L 2000 S very accurately measures the distance to these
EGEND ERIES
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 L 2000 S

The L 2000 S operates in a wide variety of water conditions, from 2'
EGEND ERIES
to 600' (2000' for the Legend 2000 Deep and 2005 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.

Deep Models Additional Performance

If you purchased a Legend 2000 Deep or a Legend 2005 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.
S V allows you to display the sonar information from either beam or

both beams simultaneously. F

Powering Up the Unit

After installation, turn the L
G knob. An audible chirp sounds as the unit turns on. If the unit detects

that the transducer is connected and is in water, the L
begins to show sonar information on the display. If the transducer is not
detected, the unit starts up in S
To power the unit off at any time, press and hold the G
seconds until the unit turns off.

manually:
1. Press the Control Panel knob to display the list of options.
2. Rotate the Control Panel knob to scroll through the list until

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
