INSTALLATION PREPARATION INSTALLATION OVERVIEW Determining How to Mount the Transducer Your Humminbird fishfinder includes a standard transducer. This transducer can be mounted on the transom of the boat or bonded to the inside of a fiberglass hull boat. The transom installation, which is the most widely used, places the transducer on the outsi de [...]

INSTALLATION PREPARATION ALTE RNATE MOUNTING METHODS ALTERNATE TRANSDUCERS AND MOUNTING METHODS Your Humminbird fishfinder comes with everything necessary for installation and operation on most boats. However, there are several situations which may require a different type of transdu cer. Inboard boats, wood or metal hulls, and sail boats create un[...]

INSTALLATION PREPARATION TRANSDUCER EXCHANGE TRANSDUCER EXCHANGE Other transducers are available as replacements for the standard transducer. You may exchange your new and unassembled transducer for another type by retu rning it to the address listed in Customer Support. Some transducers may have additional cost. Refer to the Accessory catalog or c[...]

IN STALLATION TRANSOM INSTALLATION Do not begin this transducer installation until you read the Installation Preparation in the Operation Guide. This chapter contains information critical to the correct installation of your transducer. Due to the wide varie ty of boat hulls, only general instructions are presented in the installation guide. Each bo[...]

INSTALLATION TRANSOM INSTALLATION • If the propeller(s) is (are) forward of the tran som, it may be impossible to find an area clear from turbulence, and a different mounting technique or transducer type should be considered. Step Two - Drill the Mounting Holes 1. Remove the mounting template from the front of the Operations Manual. 2. Hold the t[...]

INSTALLATION TRANSOM INSTALLATION Step Four - Mount the Transducer to the Transom 1. Apply silicone sealant to the mounting holes drilled into the transom. 2. Align the transducer assembly with the drilled holes in the transom (Figure 8 ). 3. Use either a flat head screwdriver, a 5/16" (8mm) hex driver, or a 5/16" (8mm) socket to mount th[...]

mounting bracket. Drill this hole and install the screw after final testing and adjustments have been completed. INSTALLATION TRANSOM INSTALLATION Step Six - Route the Cable There are several ways to route the transdu cer cable to the to the area where the control head will be installed. The most common procedure routes the cable through the transo[...]

INSTALLATION I NSIDE THE HULL INSTALLATION INSIDE THE HULL INSTALLATION Inside the hull installation requires the mount system and control head be installed and operational. See Installing the Control Head for instruction on installing the unit. Inside the hull mo unting generally produces good results in single thickness fiberglass - hulled boats.[...]

The transducer cannot transmit through air. The water purges any air from between the transducer and the hull and fill s any voids in the coarse fiberglass surface.[...]

INSTALLATION INSIDE THE HULL INSTALLATION 3. Power up the Control Head. 4. Run the boat at various speeds and water depths while observing the screen on the Control Head. If the unit functions well at low speeds but begins to skip or miss the bottom at higher speeds, the transducer needs to be moved. If depth performance is required, test the fishf[...]

INSTALLATION CONTROL HEAD INSTALLATION CONTROL HEAD INSTALLATION Step One - Determine Where to Mount Begin the installation by determining where to mount the control head. Consider the following to determine best location: • The cables for p ower, transducer and temp/speed accessories (if applicable) should be installed first and must reach the m[...]

fuse in the connection. If you must wire the control head directly to a battery, be sure to install an inline fuse holder[...]

INSTALLATION CONTROL HEAD INSTALLATION and one amp fuse (no t included) for the protection of the unit (Figure 21). Humminbird is not responsible for over voltage or over current failures. In order to minimize the potential for interference with other marine electronics a separate power source (such as a second b attery) may be necessary. Step Thre[...]

Optional: If t he cables pass outside the mounting bracket, install the hole cover over the hole and fasten in place using the two #8 x 7/8” (22mm) wood screws (Figure 24).[...]

INSTALLATION CONTROL HEAD INSTALLATION Step Five - Assembling the Connector Holder 1. Insert the cable connectors into the connector holder. The cable connectors are labeled, and there are corresponding labels on the connector holder (Figure 26). The slots for the connectors are keyed to prevent reverse installation, so do not force the connector i[...]

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, ensu[...]

TESTING THE INSTALLATION After installation is complete and all connections are made, you are ready to test the installation prior to actual size. Thorough 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[...]

USING THE WIDE 2000 SI MULATOR OPERATION The Wide 2000 is completely automatic and easy to use. Simply press the POWER button and the unit will locate and track the bottom from 2 feet to 600 feet changing ranges as necessary, display any structure or suspended fish and work at speeds from 0 to over 70 mph. If POWER is the only button you use, you w[...]

FEATURE MEMORY If your Wide 2000 is installed with a transducer connected, any changes you make to the set - up or User Options (see Control Functions) while in Simulator are retained in the unit’s memory. This allows you to use the simul ator to experiment with the various set - up options, and retain your selected settings for normal operation.[...]

The graphic representation of the bottom may vary considerably depending on the composition and regul arity of the bottom surface (see interpreting the On - screen Information). Any sonar return which is determined to be not a part of the bottom is shown between the surface and the bottom. If this return is determined to be a fish, one of several f[...]

The graphic depiction of the bottom provides the user with an effective tool for un derstanding the composition of the bottom. If the bottom is hard and smooth, the bottom depiction is narrow and dense. If the bottom is soft mud or sand, the depiction will be thick and less dense. This indicates that much of the signal is absorbed by the soft botto[...]

Thermoclines are sharp differences in water temperature. These are easily identified by the continuous nature of the return. When a sonar signal is reflected off the bottom back to the transducer, there is often enough energy left in the signal to be refl ected off the surface of the water back to the bottom a second time. Second returns appear as [...]

ID+ adds an additional piece of information to help the user locate fish. On selected fish symbols, the digital depth of the designated fish is drawn to help locate the fish vertically. This is especially helpful in setting bait depths or for downrigger operation. CONTROL FUNCTIONS The Wide 2000 uses a simple 6 - button keyp ad for all user input. [...]

If a Wide Side transducer is being used (see Using Alternative Transducers), the VIEW button is used to select one of f our views available: Both, Left, Right, and Down. The three lower buttons, MENU, UP, ARROW, and DOWN ARROW work together to control the Wide 2000 menu - controlled user functions. MENU brings a menu on - screen for adjustment. In [...]

All menus use the same basic layout as shown in figure F. T he heading at the top describes the menu function (see Menu Functions for more details on individual functions). The UP ARROW and DOWN ARROW symbols to the left of the menu indicate which buttons are available for adjustment. In menus which have numerous p ossible settings such as Depth Ra[...]

Increasing the bias ( +1 through +5 ) causes the unit to display the information from progressively smaller sonar returns. By decreasing the sensitivity bias ( - 1 through – 5), the unit effectively filters small sonar returns. In murky or muddy w ater, it is often advantageous to reduce the sensitivity bias. This prevents the display from being [...]

The Wide 2000 automatically adjusts the depth range depending on the depth of the water. The unit tries to maintain the bottom depiction about 2/3 down the total range (for example, in 20 feet of water, the 0 - 30 foot range would be selected). This provides the best display resolution and therefore the best target separation possible. The Depth Ra[...]

Zoom Zoom is similar to Depth Range in that it controls the range of information displayed in the graphics area of the display. Zoom, however, allows selection of ranges beneath the surface so any area of water between the surface and the bottom can be enlarged to provide more detailed information. By using the full display to show a small area of [...]

When the menu disappears, the graphics area of the screen will be divided in half. Full range information is on the right, Zoom information on the left. The digital depth readout is unaffected by Zoom. Pressing the DOWN ARROW again to highlight “Manual” activates Manual Zoom. The menu further expands to show the current Zoom range, and allows u[...]

To enable Depth Alarm, press MENU repeatedly until the Depth Alarm menu is on - screen. The Factory Setting is “Off”. Use the DOWN ARROW to highlight On. The menu will expand to show the current Depth Alarm setting. Use the UP or DOWN ARROW to set the desired depth for alarm activation. Once the menu times out, the Depth Alarm is enabled. To fu[...]

To disab le the Fish Alarm, press MENU until the Fish Alarm menu appears on - screen. Use the UP ARROW to highlight “Off”, and let the menu time out. Fish Alarm settings are remembered when the unit is powered off. Triplog Triplog provides a running log of infor mation based on input from the Temp/Speed sensor. Since Triplog requires informatio[...]

Once Triplog is enabled, pressing MENU to bring the Triplog menu on - screen now shows an additional option. “Reset”. By selecting Reset, the timer and distance log resets to 0 and the Triplog will begin to calculate elapsed time, distance traveled, and average speed from the time of reset. Triplog can be used with any view, even Wide Side. Whe[...]

Eleven contrast settings, +5 to – 5 are possible. The display contrast will change as the adjustment is made so the o ptimum level of contrast can easily be adjusted. Use the ARROW buttons to highlight the desired selection. The Wide 2000 will reset to the factory setting when the unit is powered off. Units The Unit’s function allows the user t[...]

The unit remembers Fish ID setting when powered off. Numeral Size Numeral Size is the next Option menu. Two options are available: “Big” and “Small”. The factory setting is Big. With this setting, the digital depth and speed and temp numerals are drawn large enough to be readable from across the boat. The big numerals occupy space on the di[...]

The Wide 2000 will also work with older Dual beam transducers. If you are using a Dual beam transducer, you must manually selec t “Dual” from the transducer menu as the Dual Beam transducer cannot be identified automatically. If “Dual” is manually selected, dual beam operation will be selected any time a non - standard transducer is detecte[...]

The Reset function is an important first step in trouble - shooting problems to ensure that a user - selected setting is not the cause for the perceived problem. CUSTOMIZING SET - UP FUNCTIONS The Wide 2000 allows the user t o customize many features to work best for a particular type of use. These user selections are remembered by the unit after p[...]

After the menu times out, the diagnostic screen will appear. Upon enabling diagnostic, the Wide 2000 will perform a self - test. This test confirms the operation of all internal circuitry. At the conclusion of the test, one of two messages will appear on the left side of the screen; “passed” indicates that the internal test discovered no failur[...]
