DEUS MONO
works on a single frequency like
1, but combines the advantages of DEUS II, such as
its expanded frequency range to 45 kHz, improved performance, audio quality, better EMI rejection, etc.
There is more likelihood of connecting with an unstable frequency while using several simultaneous fre-
quencies than with just one and the DEUS MONO could help you in these situations.
•
Ground above your ground effect setting will sound like the
1. Adjust the ground by automatic
acquisition (see Ground >Grabbing), but if you are experiencing too many false signals, adjust it man-
ually to 88-90 to reject all the ground including, ferrite and shocks.
GOLD FIELD
is intended for highly-mineralized gold-bearing ground. Gold nuggets are often seen as the
ground or ferrous items in these tricky environments. It is set to “all metal” for deeper detection and only
rejects the localised ground to which you should regularly adjust by Grabbing (see Ground). It will accept
ground above and below your Ground setting.
•
Discriminate the surface ferrous items with the IAR Discrimination setting (see Discrimination > IAR).
•
Increase the Reactivity when searching strong mineralization for greater stability.
RELIC
is processed in the same way as Prg. 8 - GOLD FIELD, but uses lower frequencies with conduc-
tive soil subtration to search for large masses. It is configured for “all metal” with low Reactivity and only
rejects the localised ground to which you should regularly adjust by Grabbing (see Ground). It will then
accept ground above and below this ground setting.
•
To search for deep large masses: Sweep well above the ground, e.g. 15 or 20 cm, to avoid being hin-
dered by shallow ferrous items and above all the ground effects that may distort deeper signals. You
will then be able to identify deep masses by the longer sounds. Depending on the ground and your
patience, reducing the Reactivity to 0 will offer a huge advantage in order to gain greater depth.
•
You can lower Frequency Max to 14kHz to be more sensitive to big deep targets.
DIVING
is the first and most stable of three programs intended for submerging in saltwater environments
or simply on wet sand. Its very low and medium frequencies with conductive soil subtration will better
locate valuable targets such as rings and coins, whilst naturally being less responsive to low conductive
targets like aluminum foil compared to the more sensitive Beach 11 and 12 programs. It can thus save time
and be more effective in difficult diving conditions.
•
Do not hesitate to activate B.Caps if there are troublesome rusty ferrous caps.
•
Select an inland program preferably for fresh water diving.
BEACH
uses higher frequencies up to 24 kHz and thus is more sensitive to small targets compared to
Diving. It is well suited to wet zones.
•
Sweep parallel without raising the coil at the end of each pass. If you can not maintain an even sweep
and notice instability, you can reduce Salt sens (see Menu) to reduce the Salt water sensitivity.
•
Increase the Reactivity if you experience instability or pollution.
•
Do not hesitate to activate B.Caps if there are troublesome rusty ferrous caps.
•
Beach can also be used while diving but the response may be more unsettled.
BEACH SENS
incorporates frequencies up to about 40 kHz offering excellent sensitivity to the smallest
targets without loosing performance on bigger targets. This is the deepest beach program for wet condi-
tions but also the most reactive.
•
Sweep parallel without raising the coil at the end of each pass. If you can not maintain an even sweep
and notice instability :
- Reduce Salt sens (see Menu) to reduce the Salt water sensitivity.
- Increase the Reactivity to 1, 2 or 2.5.
- Reduce the Audio Response.
•
Activate B.Caps if there are troublesome rusty ferrous caps.
