Live Control Bar
You may want to quickly change settings while searching.
The Live Control Bar is displayed at the bottom of the Search
screen and its items are accessible via the left/right arrow but-
tons. When a Live Control item is selected (using the
ENTER
button), a small control box pops up with one or more individ-
ual controls:
Any available setting in the Live Control Bar performs the
same function as any like-named setting in the menus, but the
live controls can be adjusted while the detector is in normal
operation. For many of the Live Control items, you can press
the
VIEW
button to access menus with additional settings and
controls. Accessing these menus suspends the search operation
of

.
Main Menu

gate linear list. The Main Menu can be accessed by pressing
MENU
from the Search screen. To exit back to the Search
screen, simply pull the trigger switch. When you re-enter the
Main Menu
VX

will remember where you were last, even if
after a power down.
