Controls
MODE Toggle
Selects the operating MODE or type of searching desired
on that particular outing. Major audio and display changes
occur with the selection between the three available operat-
ing MODES. For example the audio and function / informa-
tion on the display changes between the three MODES, the
function and available features of the TRIGGER switch on
the hand grip changes between the three MODES, and the
DUAL CONTROL function changes between the MODES.
For quick field reference, the silk screen painted on the bot
-
tom of the control box is provided to simplify these changes
and features.
Further explanation is provided as follows;
MODE
*Trigger (on handgrip);
Trigger Center Posi-
tion “Primary Searching” (traditional DISC
control)
.
With the Trigger on the handgrip in the
center position, the Discrimination control works
like most traditional metal detectors, metal items
below the Discrimination control setting are sup-
pressed (quiet or broken) by the audio and metal
items accepted by the Discrimination control set-
ting produce a smoother solid audio beep.
Trigger Squeezed and held “Pinpointing/
Depth Reading”.
When operating in the Coin &
Jewelry MODE and the Trigger on the handgrip is
squeezed and held, the audio changed to an all
metal (no trash rejection) pinpoint mode and the
display provides a screen that indicates the depth
and intensity of coin sized targets to further aid in
pinpointing exactly where to dig. Once released
the trigger will automatically return to the Center
“Primary Search” position.
Trigger Pushed forward to Lock “Pinpointing/
Depth Reading”.
When operating in the Coin &
Jewelry MODE and the Trigger on the handgrip is
pushed forward to Lock, the same functions are
provided as if the trigger where squeezed and
held. The audio changed to an all-metal (no trash
rejection) pinpoint mode and the display provides
a screen that indicates the depth and intensity
of coin-sized targets to further aid in pinpointing
exactly where to dig. Squeezing and releasing
the trigger will automatically return to the Center
“Primary Search” position.
