Tone and Audio Options

The 

Axiom

 provides the user with the ability to change 

the pitch of audio tones and to select from two 
distinctly different audio types.

Tone Adjustment

Press the MENU button until TONE is selected, then 
press the MENU Plus (+) or Minus (-) buttons to scroll 
through 100 available tone shifts.
  Each Tone shift is minor, but this allows the User to 
adjust to a particular tone that bests fits their particular 
preference or hearing ability.
  Note: TONE adjustment is only available when 
operating in VCO audio type (Audio 01).

Audio Type

Press the MENU button until AUDIO is selected, then 
press the MENU Plus (+) or Minus (-) buttons to select 
either Audio 00 (PWM audio) or Audio 01 (VCO audio). 
The default setting is Audio 01 (VCO).
  In either audio type, the 

Axiom

’s continous audio 

responds proportionately to the target’s signal 
strength. Large/strong signals sound loud and small/
weak signals sound faint. This enhances the ability to 
judge a target’s size, shape and depth.
  In addition to enhancing target signals, the 

Axiom

’s 

proportional audio allows the operator to hear faint 
background noise. By their nature, high-performance 
pulse detectors are often noisier than VLF-type 
detectors; therefore, some minor audio noise/chatter 
is normal. An experienced operator will learn how to 
distinguish random background noise from repeatable 
target signals.
  As a general rule, poor conductors such as small 
nuggets, specimen gold, nickels, or small bronze coins, 
etc. should produce a high tone followed by a low-
tone echo. Good conductors such as large nuggets, 
copper and silver coins, etc. should produce a low 
tone followed by a high-tone echo. A target on the 

When TONE is highlighted, use the Plus / Minus Menu  
buttons for Tone adjustment.

When AUDIO is highlighted, use the Plus / Minus Menu  
buttons for Audio type selection.
