6MX

Sensitivity, ground effect & discrimination

11

Discrimination Chart.

Actual performance will depend on site and soil conditions as well as target size 

and orientation.

Many users will enjoy the full three tone audio discrimination by setting the the 
Iron Volume control to 8, the Disc control to 4 and the Disc Volume to 8.

The CS6MX is a robust design, however the control box should be treated with 
similar care as any electronic product. Dry off any water splashes immediately. 
The search-head may be immersed in water although the connector at the other 
end of the lead should always be kept dry. Stem and search-head parts should 
be cleaned and dried at the end of a day’s detecting. Do not use solvents. If 
the detector has been used on a beach it will be necessary to wash sand and 
salt residue off the stem adjustment mechanism and the search-head retaining 
parts using tap water. The use of a search-head cover protects the head from 
abrasion damage caused by friction with the ground. Remove batteries if the 
detector is going to be stored for any length of time. 
Do not open the controlbox front panel. There are no user serviceable parts inside 
and you may invalidate your warranty.
