the bottom tracking and depth range method of
display, then use the other Control Panels to add
features to your selected mode of operation.

contain a Language choice in the Control Panel, and only
the International Models support
multiple units of measure, such as
fathoms and metres.

P
ANELS
by pushing the
C

knob
. Alternately, after a few seconds with no knob
press/turn activity, the
C
ONTROL
P
ANELS
are removed from
the display automatically.
Mode
The first Control Panel to set
is Mode. Three modes of
operation control the
method used by the Legend 3000 Series to track the
bottom, select depth ranges and graph the
information on the LCD display. The Mode is selected
by changing the Control Panel setting to Auto,
Manual, or BTM Lock (Bottom Lock).
Automatic Mode
A
UTOMATIC
M
ODE
follows the bottom contour, changing
depth ranges as needed to keep the most recent sonar
returns visible on the display.
A
UTOMATIC
M
ODE
keeps the
acquired bottom visible at all times, showing sonar
returns from the surface to the bottom and just
beyond. This is useful when traveling across the water
in areas where the depth constantly changes, requiring
frequent range changes.
