It is the setting which enables to change the operating frequency of the device. It is used to
eliminate the electromagnetic signals that the device receives from another detector which
operates in the same frequency range nearby or from the surroundings. If too much noise is
received when the search coil is lifted in the air, this may be caused by the surrounding
electromagnetic signals or too much sensitivity. In this case, first reduce the Sensitivity. If the
noise is not eliminated, you can choose to shift the frequency. The device offers 5 different
frequencies. Default setting is frequency 03.
To shift the frequency, keeping the trigger pulled back, simply press the plus (+) or the minus (-)
button.
IMPORTANT!
Frequency shift may impair performance. Therefore, it is suggested that you do
not shift the frequency unless it is required and operate it with the default settings.
FREQ.SHIFT
It is the light used for lighting the scanned area while performing search at night or dark
locations. LED flashlight does not operate when the device is off. It is recommended to turn it on
when necessary since its operation consumes battery charge.
Keeping the trigger pulled back, press the up button once to activate the LED flashlight. Repeat
the same procedure to turn it off.
Pinpoint is to find the center or the exact location of a detected target.
GOLD RACER
is a motion detector, in other words, you are required to move the search coil over
the target or the target over the search coil in order for the device to detect the target. The
pinpoint mode is a non-motion mode. The device continues to give a signal when the search coil
is kept still over the target, too.
Ground balance shall be performed properly in order to ensure precision of pinpointing. It is
recommended to perform ground balance again before performing pinpoint operation on
changing ground structures.
In the pinpoint mode, estimated target distance information is shown on the display. In the
pinpoint mode, the signal tone increases in pitch and volume as the search coil approaches the
target. In this mode, the device does not discriminate or give target IDs.
1. After a target is detected, move the search coil aside where there is no target response and
pull the trigger back.
2. Keep the trigger pulled and bring the search coil closer to the target slowly and parallel to the
ground.
3. Signal sound becomes stronger and changes in pitch while getting closer to the target center
and also the number indicating target distance on the display decreases.
