USING THE LCR

 

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION 

 

The surface temperature gauge is a valuable fishing and boating aid. It will measure 
water temperature in one-tenth of degrees and display the reading on the LCR screen. 
The probe and computer controlled electronics have been designed for an accurate 
indication and an extremely fast response time. 
  
The Trolling Speed Indicator will give very accurate low speed readings, in tenths below 
10mph, unlike ordinary speedometers. An accurate trolling speed can make the 
difference in catching fish. The TSI-LCR also gives accurate high speed readings to 75 
mph. If you do not have a surface temperature gauge or a trolling speed indicator, see 
your LCR dealer or call the Humminbird Customer Service Department's number listed 
in the front of this manual. If you want both the TG-LCR and TSI-LCR an accessory 
switch is available to allow you to use both and select which one is being displayed on 
the screen. 

 

Simulator 

 

Your LCR has a built in simulator. This simulator will display a typical underwater scene 
which can be used for demonstration or for learning how to use and understand your 
unit. 
 
To activate the simulator, the unit must first be turned off. Next, push in the on/off button 
for one to two seconds, until you hear the chirping sound. Then release the button and 
the simulated display will begin. 
 
In the simulator mode all buttons can be used. It should be noted, however, that 
increasing or decreasing the sensitivity setting will not affect the information being 
displayed. 

 
Some additional things you should know about the LCR.

 

 

• 

Some polarized glasses might affect your view of the LCR display. It could result in a 

prism or rainbow effect. This condition can possibly be improved by a slight adjustment 
in tilt. 

• 

If you get confused

 while in the manual mode, for instance, if you don't know where 

the bottom is, then press the auto on/off button to turn on the automatic mode. The LCR 
will find the bottom by selecting the proper sensitivity level and depth scale. You can 
then go back to the manual mode it desired 

• 

In order for your LCR to operate well at high speeds, you must have a 

properly 

mounted transducer

. Please read the transducer mounting procedure carefully. 

• 

The transducer for the LCR is a l6

°

 just like most standard Humminbird flasher units. 

Other transducers, such as 32

°

cannot

 be used.
