ADDITIONAL FEATURES
AUTOMATIC LOW BATTERY WARNING:
The Gold Strike will let
you know when a low battery condition will begin to effect
performance — the batteries must be changed at this time. When
the batteries get too weak, the LCD will show a “LOW BATTERY”
warning on the display. In addition, the audio system will produce
a wavering tone to alert you to the low battery condition.
AUTOMATIC SIGNAL OVERLOAD WARNING:
The Gold Strike will
alert you to the presence of a large metal object in close proximity
to the search coil by sounding off an audio bell tone. This lets you
know that the object is too close to the coil for the 2-tone audio
or LCD systems to accurate identify the object.

”:
Fisher’s new adaptive coil technology allows the
detector electronics to recognize whether the search coil is
properly installed on the detector. The Gold Strike will not turn ON
without the search coil connector properly installed to the control
housing.
CONSTANT CONTROL READOUT:
Unlike many digital detectors,
the Gold Strike LCD shows you the control settings at all times while
in the search mode. The control icons are similar to the knobs of
older detectors, constantly showing where the settings are at one
easy glance. In addition, even more accurate information
regarding the control settings can be obtained by entering the
MENU mode and observing the two-digit number accompanying
each control, showing improved resolution of each control.
LCD BACKLIGHT:
The press of a button activates a very efficient
display backlight for use in dark situations.
