Sensitivity
Used to increase or decrease responsiveness to targets, ground,
and external electrical noise. By finding the highest setting
that performs in your area, maximum depth can be achieved.
Settings 1–8 are available.
Reduced sensitivity is often needed to search bad ground con-
ditions or high electrical activity areas.
When the ground is highly mineralized (typically high iron),
reduced sensitivity settings often increase detection depth.
Finding the level that provides for smooth, stable operation
and easy target identification is important to maximize perfor-
mance. Few areas will allow maximum sensitivity settings.
1. During normal searching, press the (+) button to increase
sensitivity; press the (-) button to decrease it. The Treasuremas-
ters provide quick and convenient up or down sensitivity during
use without accessing Options. The current sensitivity setting
shows briefly where the VDI number normally is displayed.
2. Sensitivity adjustment is not featured in the Options, but only
with the (+) or (-) buttons when not in the Options mode.
Program
A program is a complete selection of options
for specific or targeted metal-detecting.
1. Coin & Jewelry- This is the primary search program used for
general-purpose searching. When searching typical soil for
coins, jewelry, or any other precious metals, and trash metal
rejection is needed, Coin & Jewelry is the best choice. Coin
& Jewelry discriminates against (rejects) ferrous (iron) objects
and light foil. Discrimination can be customized in the Coin &
Jewelry mode; see Discrimination.
2. Beach- The Beach program has features built in to ignore
conductive wet or salty soils. Use Beach anytime you are
searching a salt-water beach. And because many fertilizers
are conductive when wet, heavily fertilized farm fields may also
require the Beach mode if they are wet.
