TRANSDUCER MOUNTING PROCEDURE Humminbird’s high-speed transducer is supplied with your LCR. This transducer has been designed to give good high speed readings on most all boat designs, including aluminum. 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

absorb the blow of any obstruction by rotating up out of the metal spring bracket without harming the transducer, or your boat. The transducer can be re-engaged by simply rotating the transducer down and snapping it back in place. (See Figure A) 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, you

aluminum boat locate the template on the transom between rows of rivets, or ribs that are on the bottom of the boat. Align the template so that the bottom corner of the template nearest the center of the transom is on the bottom edge of the transom. 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 a

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. Be sure to align the holes so that they are centered vertically in the three slots found in the bracket. It is important to use a silicone sealant between the screwhead and bracket in

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” allen head screw into the end of the pin and tighten. (See Figure G) Step 5 ANGLE ALLIGHMENT- Set the transducer angle so that it is parallel with the bottom of the boat hull. Once

using the 5/32” allen wrench provided. The screws are visible through the access holes on each side of the metal bracket. Check to make sure the transducer main body is rigidly fastened to the pivot. (See Figure H) Step 6 CHECK POSITION OF TRANSDUCER- At this point, check to see that the bottom of the transducer is a minimum of ¼” below the bottom of the transom. (However, as noted in STEP 2, the top of the transducer cannot fall below the bottom of the transom). If it is not, remov

4. Put transducer in the water. The bottom of the transducer should be in a flat area and should be in good contact with the bottom of the boat. 5. Operate the LCR with the boat operating at high speed. The transducer may have to be moved in order to find an area where satisfactory operation is observed. 6. When an area is found that produces satisfactory operation, mark the location of the transducer. 7. Remove the water and transducer and clean the marked area and the bottom of the tran

INSTALLING THE LCR The LCR should be mounted on a flat, solid surface for maximum stability. The low profile swivel mount has four holes drilled in the base. It is recommended that all four holes be used. 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

OTHER MOUNTING OPTIONS 1. The LCR gimbal bracket can also be mounted on the SM-4, quick disconnect swivel mount. 2. The LCR gimbal bracket can also be mounted directly to the dash without the swivel mount, however, this method is not recommended since the unit cannot be rotated. INSTALLING THE CABLES Your LCR comes equipped with Humminbird’s new

“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. A 32- degree transducer cannot be used. A 11/8” hole must be drilled to pull through the transducer connector. After drilling the hole, pull the transducer connector up through the hole. If you are installing two units, both transducer connectors can be pulled through this 1 1/8” inch hole. Next, push the power cable wires down t

INSTALLATION TEST THE INSTALLATION TEST THE INSTALLATION Testing should be performed with the boat in the water, however you can initially confirm basic operation with the boat trailered. Press POWER once to turn the unit on. There will be an audible chirp when any button is pressed to confirm the button press. If the unit does not power-up, ensure the unit is fully seated on the mount and that power is available. The first screen provides four options: Start-up, Options, Simulat

USING THE TCR ID-1 HOW SONAR WORKS HOW SONAR WORKS Humminbird depth sounders work on the basic principles of sonar. An electronic signal generated in the unit is changed to an ultrasonic signal by the transducer or Sensor, which sends the signal toward the bottom. The signal travels downward until it strikes either the bottom or an object above the bottom. Then, signals or echoes bounce back to the Sensor, which receives them and changes them back to electronic signals that can be di

USING THE TCR ID-1 HOW SONAR WORKS Compact, High-Definition Sensor. To send and receive this higher-frequency signal, we developed a new High-Definition Sensor. You can immediately see the difference between our 455KHz Sensor and older 200KHz transducers. This unique new Sensor makes bulky low-definition transducers a thing of the past. Our new Sensor is so compact, it’s a snap to install. It’s designed for superior high- speed performance, and because of its small size you'll have

USING THE TCR ID-1 BUILT-IN SIMULATOR BUILT-IN SIMULATOR To help you learn to use your new unit, Humminbird has built a simulator into the TCR ID-1.The simulator will display a typical underwater scene, and allow you to use the controls for practice. Activating the simulator is easy - with the unit turned off, hold down the power button for about 2 seconds, until a chirping sound begins. When you release the button, the built- in simulator will be on and ready for your practice sess

USING THE TCR ID-1 READING THE TCR ID-1 SCREEN READING THE TCR ID-1 SCREEN Your TCR has a liquid crystal display, or LCD. The liquid crystal material in the display aligns itself to either block light or let light pass through. This blocking of light creates images on the screen. Since the display depends on light to form its images, increasing the light source makes it easier to see. This is why your TCR can be seen so well in bright, direct sunlight. You will also notice that the d

USING THE TCR ID-1 READING THE TCR ID-1 SCREEN Total Screen UpdateÒ Humminbird’s exclusive Total Screen Update instantly updates the entire TCR screen to include new information each time a function is changed no waiting for the changes to “march” onto the screen. This feature is valuable in 2 ways: 1. Changing depth ranges. When the depth range changes to a deeper or shallower scale, the entire screen changes to display the new depth scale. For example, if you’re in the 0-60’ scal

USING THE TCR ID-1 READING THE TCR ID-1 SCREEN Of course, the best way to learn to read your TCR ID-1 is to use it, especially in familiar locations. If you know what's underwater and can see it displayed on the screen, then you're on your way to being an experienced TCR user.
