a. When in the MENU mode, the Iron DISC controlcan be
varied from 0 to 99 with the UP and DOWN arrow buttons. A 0
discrimination setting will allow all metals to activate the tone; a
99 discrimination setting fully discriminates out most iron targets,
allowing only nonferrous objects to activate the tone I.D. in Disc
mode. When hunting, you will choose an optimal discrimination
setting between 0 and 99 that allows you to ignore most of the
iron trash in your hunting area, without giving up any good
targets. Also notice that the constant control readout shows you
approximate settings at all times with a graphical icon, whether
you are in the MENU mode or the search mode.
b. The THRESHOLD control is best understood as setting a “trigger”
point for received signals to exceed (and be acknowledged) or
fall short of (and be ignored). This control can be adjusted with the
arrow buttons between -99 (higher trigger = less excitable) and +4
(low trigger = more excitable). There are a couple of considerations
in choosing a threshold setting: 1) If you prefer to have an audio
threshold tone present while hunting, choose a setting between 0
and +4. This will allow your Coin Strike to react to the tiniest targets in
a low mineralization environment. 2) However, if you plan to utilize
the fast automatic ground tracking feature of the Coin Strike, set
the threshold to a -5 or -10 setting for stable tracking performance
(and even lower in harshly mineralized soils).
c. The SENSITIVITY control can be varied from a setting of 0 to
a maximum of 10 with the arrow buttons when the SENS icon is
flashing. As with most detectors, set the sensitivity higher for best
depth performance in soils that are low in mineralization. As the
mineralization gets worse, lower the sensitivity setting as needed.
We recommend a sensitivity setting of 4 or lower for the most stable
performance if the fast automatic ground tracking is enabled.
Please note that a SENS setting of 0 or 1 will still yield excellent
results.
d. The salt mode can be activated or turned off with the Auto
Ground button. While in the MENU, when the two-digit display
shows “SO”, the salt mode is off. Use this setting for all hunting
conditions except wet sand (beaches) with salt content and NO
black sand (magnetic soil). Press and release the Auto Ground
CONTROL PANEL
