Nokta Fors Tech, User Manual

Page: 14 / 32

You can customize ID Masking according to your needs. Each mode has its own default ID
Masking value in the menu. When you change the mode, the ID Masking value preset for
that mode is displayed. This does not affect the ID Masking levels set by the user in other
modes. ID Masking is not active in the General Search mode. For detailed information on
Target ID and how to use ID Masking, please refer to the section TARGET ID and ID
MASKING (pages 22-23).
FREQUENCY:
Changes the operating frequency of the device. It is used to eliminate the electromagnetic
interference received from the surrounding environment or another detector operating
within the same frequency range. If the device receives a lot of noise when the search coil
is held in the air, the cause may be electromagnetic interference or a high sensitivity
setting. If you suspect electromagnetic interference, you may change the frequency. There
are 5 frequencies in the device. The factory default is 03. Normally, the frequency setting is
not enabled and it is grayed out in the menu. To activate it, while holding the pinpoint
button pressed, press one of the up/down/+/- switches. Then, you can select the frequency
option in the menu and change it.
IMPORTANT! Frequency shifting may affect the performance of the device. Therefore, it is
recommended that you do not change the frequency unless necessary and keep it at the
factory default.
VOLUME:
This control allows you to increase or decrease the device's volume based on your
preference and environmental conditions. Volume level can be adjusted from 0 to 20.
When you turn off and on the device, it will start with the last volume level you chose. This
setting is common to all modes; changes will take effect in all modes. Because the volume
level affects power consumption, we recommend you not to increase it more than
necessary.
TONE:
It allows you to change the audio frequency of the threshold and target warning tones
according to your preference. There are 5 different audio frequencies ranging from treble
to bass. Tone change does not affect the iron tone. It is active in the General Search, DI2
and COG modes. It is inactive in the Discrimination 3 (DI3) mode. It changes the audio
frequency of the threshold sound in the General Search mode and the gold/non-ferrous
metal sound in the DI2 and COG modes.
BRIGHTNESS:
This control allows you to adjust the backlight level of the numeric display on the handle
and the LCD panel on the system box based on your preference and environmental
conditions. Brightness level can be adjusted from 0 to 20. This setting is common to both
displays; changes will take effect on both. When you change the brightness level in the
menu, the backlight will turn on the numeric display and number ''88'' will appear for easy
adjustment. When you turn off and on the device, it will start with the last brightness level
you chose. This setting is common to all modes; changes will take effect in all modes.
