MODES
Three Tone Mode
This is the 3-tone discrimination mode designed for coin hunting especially in trashy sites. In
this mode, the device produces a low, grunt tone for ferrous targets with 0-10 IDs, a low tone
for gold and non-ferrous metals with IDs 11-70 and a high tone for non-ferrous metals with IDs
71-99 such as silver, brass and copper. By using the TONE BREAK feature, you can adjust the
break points of the target response tones on the TARGET ID range.This mode is ideal to use in
fields with different types of metals enabling you to search faster with audio discrimination.
You can search without detecting unwanted targets in this mode by using the ID FILTER
and NOTCH FILTER feature as in the Two Tone mode. ID FILTER value is set to 03 as a default
value. It is recommended to modify this value according to the type of target.
Beach Mode
It is the special mode of
RACER 2
developed for conductive grounds (wet sand beach,
grounds with alkali soil etc.). The feature of this mode is its ability to ignore iron and similar
targets in this group and to perform ground balance on any type of ground. While the
device performs ground balance in the range of 40-90 automatically in the other
discrimination modes, the device ground balances in the range of 0-90 in this mode. This
enables easier ground balancing on conductive grounds where normally ground balance
cannot be performed at all or performed with difficulty.
As in the Two Tone mode, the device produces a low tone for ferrous targets with IDs
between 0-10. For gold/non-ferrous targets with IDs 11-99, it produces a high tone. By
using the TONE BREAK feature, you can adjust the break points of the target response
tones on the TARGET ID range.
Different than the other modes, the ID FILTER value is set to 10 as a default value in this
mode in order to ignore ferrous metals or ground noise.
Salt water and alkali grounds are significantly conductive due to high ionization and cause
effects similar to that of iron in detectors. These effects may make it impossible to search
for metals with a standard detector. Existence of iron elimination feature in a detector can
improve the situation but may not be sufficient.
RACER 2
’s Beach mode eliminates such effects and ground noise. Aspects to be taken into
consideration while searching on conductive grounds are explained in more detail in the
section titled Searching in Shallow Water and Beach (page 26).
Deep Mode (DEEP)
Recommended especially for relic hunting, this mode is the deepest among discrimination
modes. Different than the other discrimination modes, this mode requires a slower swing speed.
DEEP mode is similar to Two Tone in characteristics but offers a slower detection speed.
You can search without detecting unwanted targets in this mode by using the ID FILTER
and NOTCH FILTER feature as in the Two Tone mode. ID FILTER value is set to 03 as a default
value. It is recommended to modify this value according to the type of target.
As in the Two Tone mode, the device produces a low tone for ferrous targets with IDs
between 0-10. For gold/non-ferrous targets with IDs 11-99, it produces a high tone. By
using the TONE BREAK feature, you can adjust the break points of the target response
tones on the TARGET ID range.
