Scans / Second
Scans per second is default set at 5, for normal walking speed of scan (how fast you travel).
The highest setting of 10 would be for running or vehicle speed scanning.
High and Low Value
The high and low value is default set at 15 and -15 and can be changed for the strength of the
target. The value settings are: Low = 10/-10, Med. = 25/-25 and High = 50/-50, the arrow
boxes next to the value squares fine tune to precise numbers. Clicking on the default value
returns the values to the default settings. For the weaker targets the high and low settings
(under options) can be decreased to detect the weaker targets (example 10/-10 or 5/-5 for
even weaker targets). The stronger targets dictate raising the values to separate the
surrounding background from the target.
The high and low data readings capture the highest or lowest signals for that scan. While
scanning a small difference in the numbers can mean a target is detected.
Current
The current reading is where the antenna is reading at the time. The current (current signal
strength) reading can assist in relocating the highest / lowest reading point (or target). The
highest and lowest numbers captured as data readings can be matched with the current
reading to relocate or confirm target. The color bar is indicating the current reading also.
Monitor Indicators
The colors indicate: Green as ground or background targets. Blue indicates weak targets
such as voids, tunnels, caves and possible non-ferrous metals. Yellow / Orange indicates
medium targets or the edge of a strong target. Red is a strong target such as ferrous metals. If
a weak target isn't indicated in red on the monitor then lowering the values will result in
showing the target colors.
STATUS BAR
Indicates the connected or not connected status of the antenna.
Current Reading - Current signal strength at the current location.
HIGH/LOW - Lowest and Highest signal strength for that scan.
Sensitivity Options - To pick up weaker targets set these values
lower: Example 10/-10 or 5/-5 for even weaker targets.
SPS - Number of scans per second, increase for faster traveling.
Default - Resets sensitivity values back to preset.
Status Bar - Connected / Not Connected status.
Red - Strong Targets
(metal chest, metal pipes)
Green - Background
Targets (common ground)
Blue - Weak Target
(void, cave or tunnel)
