FINE FREQUENCY TUNING
By a single press of arrow key the element frequency
can be fine adjusted in steps of 1 Hz. Depress an arrow
key to adjust in steps of 100 Hz. It is worth to fine tune
the frequency slight higher or lower, to calibrate with
the operator conductivity, soil conditions and metal alloy
(for example gold karats). It is possible that various users notice small
changes to the frequencies they respond better. For that purpose move the frequency
setting to a point more satisfactory to you. Correct frequency tuning results at intense
antenna movement even prior to target line. Experiment with your own samples and
soil types. Put your own target sample over the ground, take care it makes a good
contact alternatively wet with salt water. Alter the frequency and scan again. Repeat
as many times needed until the best response is received. Note that some fresh targets
have a weak or no response at all. Correct frequency tuning presents an intense antenna movement,
starting before the target line and the antenna will lock to the target for a relatively large width.
To
reset all frequencies to the starting values
, hold the UP and MENU keys. The X-FINDER beeps 3 times
and then makes a longer beep to confirm the reset.
CENTERING THE TARGET
Α. Triangulation method
Move 15 m. away sideways to the spot where the first reading is received and scan again. If an imaginary
line is projected from the antenna at both spots, then those 2 lines intersect at the target center.
In case the angle of the lines is closed the target is in a close proximity, if it is open, the target lies far away.
Start moving towards the point of intersection. If you stand above and pass it, the antenna locks either
to the left or right side.
