TRACKING
The device will return to the main screen automatically after a moment upon completion of
ground balance. To return immediately, just pull and release the trigger once.
IMPORTANT!
Experienced detectorists adjust the ground balance setting to little positive
response (weak but audible sound is produced when moving the search coil closer to ground).
This method may produce favorable results for experienced users in certain fields where small
targets are searched for.
In this option, the user does not need to make any adjustments. TRACKING feature is activated
from the menu by switching it to 01 position. The word ''Tracking'' is displayed on the right
bottom corner of the screen. The device updates the ground balance automatically as long as
the search coil is swung over the ground and shows the ground balance value in the GROUND
PHASE window on the right top corner. It does not provide any feedback to the user (like ground
balance value or a beep sound in automatic ground balance).
While TRACKING is active, the device can initially produce a loud signal when it detects a
different ground structure (for instance a mineral rock) or a target. In this case, swing the search
coil over the spot where the device produces the signal . If the sound remains the same and the
device shows an ID, it is possibly a target. If the sound attenuates too much or is lost after a few
swings, it means that the device has produced a signal for the different ground structure or a
stone.
It is recommended that you use TRACKING in the All Metal mode and not in the discrimination
modes (Two Tone, Three Tone and Beach) for the best performance.
TRACKING is suitable for use in areas where different soil structures are present within the same
land or in fields where mineral rocks are scattered widely apart. If you use Ground Tracking in
areas where hot rocks are intensely present, the device may not be able to eliminate these high
mineralized rocks or you may miss the smaller or deeper metals.
IMPORTANT!
Ensure that TRACKING is off during air tests. Otherwise, the device attempts to
perform ground balance on the target and the depth is reduced.
