Frequency
Transmitter frequency
The menu item select transmitter frequency is only available for Multi-mode machines.
You can choose between two factory-pre-et frequencies, high and low .
Attention:
If the product exhibits a high product effect, or when conveying packaging containing aluminium, you
should select a low frequency as a general rule. Analogous to this, you should select a high frequency if the
product effect is low.
Please note, that the transmitter frequency is connected to the product (parameters).
Difference between selecting transmitter frequency – secondary frequency:
Using the optional transmitter frequency selector for multi mode machines, you can, depending on product
characteristics, choose between the factory pre-set frequencies
high and low (e.g. 62.5 kHz and 500 kHz).
The secondary frequency selector only allows the machine to switch to a secondary frequency (e.g. 63.5 kHz
for 62.5 kHz main frequency). If you operate more than one metal detector in the same production
environment, you should indicate this when ordering. The different main and secondary frequencies of the
metal detectors can then be adjusted optimally to each other in the factory. Please note the indications for
setting the secondary frequency with multi mode machines.

Side frequency
If the metal detector is exposed to strong interference in the
factory-pre-set main frequency, and normal operation is
impossible, you can change to a secondary frequency.

Software Update
The current software is replaced by a new version. To do this, select the new software version on the left.
After a few minutes the device will start with the new software.
Protocol
The evaluation electronics continuously record all occurring metal events and errors together with the date
and time. You have the option to export the protocol with the help of the USB connection.
You can select via a button whether the database is to be exported as a text file (file extension .txt) or as
‘comma separated values’ (file extension .csv).
