PINPOINT
In the An mode, the Gauss MiL operates as a
motion detector, that’s why you should
constantly move the coil over the ground in
order for the device to detect targets. While
moving, it’s not always possible to effectively
detect a buried object as it’s hard to identify its
exact location.
Once a target is detected and you want to
determine its precise location, press .
When the PINPOINT mode is activated, the
device can’t discriminate the metal types and
becomes a non-motion detector.
The letters
PP
will be displayed in the Target
ID field, and the black bars on its left and right
sides will indicate the signal strength of a
target under the coil. The detector will also
produce an audio response with different
volume level and frequency proportionally to
the signal strength of a target, which
additionally helps to identify its position and
estimate the burial depth.
To determine the exact position
of a target:
1 After the approximate target location
is detected, move the coil away from
that area and press .
2
Sweep the coil slowly closer to the
target keeping it at the same height
above the ground. Identify the location
where the detector produces the
loudest sound and displays the
greatest number of black bars.
3 Keep this position in mind or mark it
with a shovel. Then change your sweep
direction – approach the target at a
right angle to the original search line
and repeat Step 2 above.
4 By doing so you’ll quickly determine
the target’s exact location. Press
to exit.
This mode is recommended for
use while detecting valuable
finds. It's also crucially important to keep
the coil at the same height above the
ground at all times when sweeping. The
non-motion mode is unstable in time,
that’s why operation in this mode should
be performed within a short period of
time.
