Mode Defaults
This is used to set the mode settings back to factory defaults. It
restores the factory defaults for the mode currently in use and does
not change the settings of other modes or the options of the device.
When you select Mode Defaults, the warning message ''Current mode
will be restored to factory defaults. Are you sure you want to continue?''
will appear. When OK is pressed the message ''Please wait…'' and the
progress bar will appear. When the bar is full, the device will revert back
to the detection screen automatically.

Sensitivity
/Citlivosť
Je to nastavenie hĺbkového výkonu zariadenia. Používa sa tiež na
elimináciu elektromagnetických signálov z okolitého prostredia a
rušivých signálov prenášaných zo zeme.
POZNÁMKA: Ak chcete dosiahnuť maximálny hĺbkový výkon a
eliminovať elektromagnetické rušenie, skúste najskôr posunúť
frekvenciu. V INVENIO Pro, keď frekvenčný posun nestačí na
eliminovanie rušenia, môžete zmeniť aj prevádzkovú frekvenciu (5 kHz /
14 kHz / 20 kHz) zariadenia.
Rozsah nastavenia citlivosti je 1-99 a je vopred definovaný pre
každý režim. Všetky režimy začínajú v predvolených nastaveniach. V
prípade potreby ich možno manuálne upraviť. Nastavenie citlivosti
sa vzťahuje na zvolený režim; upravené nastavenie neovplyvní
nastavenie citlivosti ostatných režimov.
Keď je zvolená citlivosť, na obrazovke sa zobrazí farebný pruh
nastavenia. Citlivosť môžete nastaviť medzi 1-99 pomocou tlačidiel plus
(+) a mínus (-). Nastavená úroveň bude označená oranžovou farbou na
lište a bude tiež zobrazená číselne vo vnútri kurzora.
POZNÁMKA: Ak je pôda vysoko mineralizovaná, čo spôsobuje
preťaženie zariadenia, znižujte úroveň citlivosti, kým z obrazovky
nezmizne správa „Overload“ (Preťaženie).
POZNÁMKA: V režime Ground Anomaly & Cavity (Pôdne anomálie a
dutiny) nie je žiadne nastavenie citlivosti.
Citlivosť v nepohybových režimoch
Citlivosť v základnom režime
:
V tomto režime je optimalizované továrenské nastavenie citlivosti. Ak
to podmienky prostredia a pôdy umožňujú, môžete zvýšiť hĺbkový
výkon zvýšením citlivosti.
Ak počas vyhľadávania náhle zmeny poveternostných podmienok,
rôzne pôdne štruktúry alebo rušenie z okolia spôsobujú negatívne
alebo pozitívne posuny, obnovte vyváženie zeme predtým, ako
zmeníte úroveň citlivosti. Ak posuny pokračujú, potiahnite spúšťač
smerom k sebe a uvoľnite, aby ste zariadenie manuálne preladili. Ak
posuny stále často pokračujú, postupne znižujte citlivosť a obnovte
vyváženie zeme
.
Citlivosť v režime expert
:
V prípadoch, keď chcete zmeniť nastavenie citlivosti (náhle zmeny
poveternostných podmienok, rozdielne pôdne štruktúry alebo
rušenie z okolia), najskôr znovu vykonajte vyváženie zeme. Ak aj po
opätovnom vyvážení je veľa negatívnych alebo pozitívnych posunov,
potiahnite spúšťač smerom k sebe a uvoľnite, aby ste zariadenie
manuálne preladili. Ak sú posuny stále prítomné, vyberte z
nastavení „Stabilizer“ (Stabilizátor)a zvýšte úroveň „AutoReset“.
Ak aj napriek všetkému vyššie uvedenému, kolísanie stále existuje,
nastavte AutoReset na 1, postupne znižujte citlivosť a obnovte
vyváženie zeme. Podrobné informácie o ďalších nastaveniach
nájdete v príslušných častiach tohto návodu.
Ak to podmienky prostredia a pôdy umožňujú, môžete zvýšiť
hĺbkový výkon zvýšením nastavenia citlivosti.
Citlivosť v pohybových režimoch
Citlivosť v režime All Metal (všetky kovy)
:
V režime All Metal (všetky kovy) spôsobí nastavenie citlivosti zvýšenie
alebo zníženie praskavých zvukov a falošných signálov. Nastavenie
citlivosti je osobnou preferenciou. Je však dôležité nastaviť citlivosť na
najvyššiu možnú úroveň, pri ktorej nebudete počuť žiadne veľké
praskanie, aby ste predišli prehliadnutiu menších a hlbších cieľov.
Napríklad; ak je hladina rušenia vhodná na vyhľadávanie a je rovnaká
pri úrovni citlivosti 40 a 70, potom by mala byť preferovaná hodnota 70.
Použitie predvolených nastavení úrovní bude dobrým východiskovým
bodom, kým sa neoboznámite so zariadením.
Citlivosť v režimoch Fast (rýchly) a Deep (hlboký)
:
Keďže nastavenie treshold nie je dostupné v diskriminačných režimoch,
môžete zvýšiť hĺbkový výkon zariadenia alebo zabezpečiť bezhlučnú
prevádzku na rôznych miestach iba pomocou nastavenia citlivosti.
Ak chcete nastaviť citlivosť v režimoch Fast (rýchly) a Deep (hlboký),
najprv vykonajte vyváženie, kým je citlivosť nastavená na predvolenej
úrovni. Po dokončení vyváženia držte cievku nehybne alebo sa otočte
nad zemou vo výške hľadania. Znížte citlivosť, ak zariadenie prijíma
rušenie. Ak nie (pri kontrole sa uistite, že aj diskriminácia je vo svojich
predvolených nastaveniach), postupne zvyšujte citlivosť, až kým
nezaznie praskanie. Ak zariadenie začne počas vyhľadávania prijímať
rušenie, postupne znižujte citlivosť.
POZNÁMKA: Pretože režim Deep (hlboký) ponúka maximálny hĺbkový
výkon, je o niečo hlučnejší ako ostatné režimy. Avšak vzhľadom na
konštrukčné vlastnosti tohto režimu bude hluk viac vo vzduchu ako na
zemi. Berte túto skutočnosť do úvahy pri nastavovaní úrovne citlivosti.
Subthreshold
Toto nastavenie je určené pre skúsenejších používateľov; preto je prítomné
len v expertnom režime.
Toto nastavenie vám umožňuje vidieť na obrazovke signály, ktoré spadajú
pod hodnotu threshold (falošné signály, zmeny pôdy a kov); preto ho bežne
nepočuť.
Prístroj nastavuje úroveň threshold a subthreshold automaticky podľa
úrovne citlivosti. So zvyšujúcou sa citlivosťou úroveň threshold klesá. Inými
slovami, subthreshold oblasť sa zužuje. Podobne, keď sa citlivosť znižuje,
threshold úroveň sa zvyšuje a subthreshold oblasť sa rozširuje. Stručne
povedané, nastavenie subthreshold vám umožňuje vidieť signály, ktoré
spadajú do tejto oblasti a ktoré bežne nie sú počuteľné ani viditeľné.
Nastavenie subthreshold pozostáva z 10 úrovní nastaviteľných pomocou
tlačidiel plus (+) a mínus (-). 0 je predvolené výrobné nastavenie. Keď sa
zvýši úroveň subthreshold, nepočuteľné signály sa zobrazia sivou farbou.
Zariadenie nebude rozlišovať signály, ktoré spadajú pod úroveň threshold.
TIP :
If the signal detected with the subthreshold setting is large and
you can increase the sensitivity level, you can take the signal over
the threshold level and make it audible by increasing the sensitivity
for an instant. This way you can check the signal and see what kind
of a target it is.
Audio Boost
Boosts the sound of weak signals received from small or deep targets
making it easier for you to detect those uncertain targets. It is active
in the All Metal and Expert modes. It is recommended that audio boost
should be used on a temporary or as-needed basis because it will not
only boost the target signal audio but it will also boost the volume of
ground noise and false signals along with the threshold hum.
Audio Boost consists of 5 levels. As factory defaults, the Audio Boost
level is set to 3 in the All Metal mode and 5 in the Expert mode. To
increase the Audio Boost level, use the plus (+) and minus (-) buttons.
Discrimination
Discrimination is the ability of the device to ignore all metals below a
certain Target ID. In the discrimination process, the filtered ID range
is shown on the color ID scale at the top of the screen with black
color. For example, if you set the Discrimination to 30, 0-30 on the ID
scale will be shown in black and the device will not produce an audio
response for any metals with IDs between 0-30.
Discrimination cannot be used in Basic and Ground Anomaly & Cavity
modes. The factory default for discrimination is 0 for Expert and All
Metal and 10 for others.
When discrimination is selected, the colored adjustment bar with a
cursor showing the discrimination level, is displayed on screen. You
can adjust the discrimination level using the plus (+) and minus (-)
buttons. The adjusted level will be indicated by black color on the bar
and it will also be shown numerically inside the cursor.
In order to change the discrimination value, press the SETTING button
and choose Discrimination. Decrease or increase the value using the
plus (+) or minus (-) buttons. Please remember that certain targets,
other than the ones you want to ignore, may also be missed or their
signals may become weaker when using the discrimination setting.
In the case of receiving multiple IDs for the same target - let's say 35
and 55 - due to the orientation of the target or the composition of the
metal itself, if you set the discrimination to 40, because 35 will fall in the
filtered range, the signal strength as well as the depth may diminish.
NOTE :
Discrimination setting works inversely proportional to depth up
to level 49 in Fast and Deep modes. In other words, as the discrimination
is increased, stability will increase but depth will be reduced and vice
versa. Above 49 though, both depth and noise will increase.
Stabilizer
This setting is present in the Expert mode and All Metal mode but it
has different functions in these modes :
Stabilizer setting in Expert mode :
This feature has 2 sub-settings: AutoReset and Stabilizer. These 2
settings are shown on the right and left in the same window. Stabilizer
consists of 5 levels shown in beige, AutoReset consists of 3 colors
shown in gray. The adjusted level of both settings are shown in orange.
If no orange bar is present, it means that both settings are off.
AutoReset and Stabilizer cannot be used simultaneously. In other words,
when one is active, the other one will be off and cannot be used.
AutoReset is active in the detection screen with the IPTU sensor only.
Stabilizer, on the other hand, can be used in both detection screens.
These settings are used to eliminate the drifts caused by ground and
temperature changes. Drifts may happen in the positive or negative
direction. During negative drifts, the Drift-Metal bar at the bottom of
the screen will up to the left, in the drift direction. Because positive
drifts have the same effect as metal, these will make the bar fill up to
the right, in the metal direction.
To eliminate these drifts, first pull the trigger once towards you and
release it to manually retune the device. If the drifts are substantial
and retuning does not improve the situation, please follow the steps
below :
If you are detecting with the IPTU sensor, increase the AutoReset
setting gradually until the drifts are eliminated. At level 3, the device
may miss weak signals. Therefore, if you suspect the presence of
metal in a spot, decrease the AutoReset level to scan over the spot
again.
If the drifts continue, you can increase the Stabilizer setting to 5 to
eliminate the drifts. As the Stabilizer is increased, the device may detect
weaker signals but will not be able to detect the targets anymore if you
hold the coil stationary or sweep back and forth over the target.
If you are detecting without the IPTU sensor, you can eliminate the
drifts by increasing the Stabilizer setting only as the AutoReset is
not available in this screen. Therefore, you can set the Stabilizer to
maximum levels to get rid of the drifts but keep in mind that as the
Stabilizer is increased, the device may detect weaker signals but
will not be able to detect the targets anymore if you hold the coil
stationary or sweep back and forth over the target.
IMPORTANT!
You can increase the Stabilizer setting only in the
detection screen. Once you go to scan screen, the device will set the
Stabilizer setting to 1. AutoReset, on the other hand, will stay at the
last adjusted level.
IMPORTANT!
When switching from detection screen with the IPTU
sensor to detection screen without the IPTU sensor, do not forget to
readjust the Stabilizer setting!
NOTE :
If environmental and ground changes do not cause any drifts,
we recommend that you turn the AutoReset and Stabilizer settings
off in detection screens with and without the sensor respectively.
Stabilizer in All Metal Mode :
For the All Metal mode to perform accurately, a stable threshold sound
is necessary. You cannot search in the All Metal mode without ground
balancing. Changes that occur in the soil structure and mineralization
levels after ground balancing, may cause a rise or fall in the background
hum and disrupt the threshold's stability which will result in false
signals and thus missing signals of small metals. Stabilizer adjusts the
speed that the device recovers its threshold hum and eliminates the
negative effects of mineralized soils. Increasing the Stabilizer level in
high mineralization will enable a more stable operation by avoiding false
signals. This, however, may cause some loss in depth and it is normal.
NOTE
: In high mineralization, if you receive too many false signals
without disruption in the threshold hum, lower the sensitivity first
before increasing the Stabilizer. If the false signals continue, set the
sensitivity back to its original value and increase the Stabilizer.
If the mineralization is low, you can decrease the Stabilizer level and
sweep the coil more slowly for a deeper detection.
Stabilizer consists of 10 levels. The device will start at level 6. It is
recommended that Stabilizer should be increased in high-mineralization
and decreased in low mineralization.
Audio Tone
Allows you to change the target audio response tones and the
threshold sound according to your preference. For each metal group
(Ferrous, Gold/Non-Ferrous, Non-Ferrous) the frequency can be
adjusted between 150 Hz (15) and 700 Hz (70).
In the Audio Tone feature, metal groups mentioned above will be
indicated by different colors: Ferrous metals by red, gold/non-ferrous
metals by yellow and non-ferrous metals by green. The cursor on
each metal group will display the frequency of the audio tone.
To adjust the Audio Tone, select the metal group of which you want
to change the tone of, by using the plus (+) and minus (-) buttons. The
cursor will turn orange. Then, press the OK button and using the plus
(+) and minus (-) buttons again, adjust the frequency.
Audio Tone feature is not present in the Basic and Ground Anomaly &
Cavity modes.
If the tone break points of metal groups are changed with the Tone
Break setting, the tone frequencies selected by the Audio Tone setting
will apply to the new ID ranges. Details about the Tone Break setting
are given on the next page.
Threshold
In the All Metal Mode, search is performed with a continuous humming
sound in the background, also referred to as the threshold sound. The
loudness of this hum directly impacts the detection depth of smaller
and deeper targets and it is adjusted by the Threshold setting. If the
threshold is set too high, a weak target signal may not be heard. On the
contrary, if the threshold is too low, you give up the depth advantage
this setting offers. In other words, weak signals of smaller or deeper
targets may be missed. It is recommended for average users to leave
this setting at its default value and for experienced users to adjust to
the highest level where they can still hear the weak target signals.
When threshold is selected, the colored adjustment bar is displayed
on screen. Threshold ranges between 1-99. The factory default is set
to 26. You can adjust the threshold level using the plus (+) and minus
(-) buttons. The adjusted level will also be shown numerically inside
the cursor.
Threshold level is directly related to the Sensitivity and Stabilizer
settings. Please be sure to read the related sections of the manual
carefully.
Threshold setting works in the All Metal mode only.
Tracking
When tracking is on, the device continuously tracks the changing
ground structures and automatically reconfigures the ground balance
setting. The invisible changes in ground affect the detection depth
as well as the discrimination ability of the device so it is possible to
operate the device at higher performance using this feature under
suitable ground conditions.
When tracking is activated, the word ''Tracking'' will be displayed at
the top of the ground balance window and the ground balance value
changes will also be show in the same window.
NOTE :
Tracking does not work in non-motion modes. When tracking is
active, if you switch to a non-motion mode, tracking will be deactivated
and it will automatically be active again if you switch back to a motion
mode.
For more information on tracking, please refer to the relevant sections
of the manual.
iMask
It is used to eliminate false signals caused by ground noise or hot
rocks when searching in Fast or Deep modes. It consists of 3 levels.
Its factory default value is set to 1. You can change the value using the
plus (+) and minus (-) buttons. The adjusted value is shown in orange.
If there are no orange bars, it means that iMask is off.
If the device receives a lot of false signals due to highly mineralized soil
or hot rocks in Fast or Deep modes, first re-ground balance. If the false
signals continue, lower the Sensitivity and check again. In case the false
signals still exist, try increasing the Discrimination value. Regardless of
all these, if the false signals still exist, first change the Sensitivity and
Discrimination values back to their previous levels. Then, increase the
iMask level until the false signals are eliminated.
At the maximum level of iMask false signals will disappear or will be
minimized. However, in some cases, increasing the iMask will result in
loss of depth for certain metals such as copper.
NOTE :
When detecting in 20kHz with the INVENIO Pro on wet or highly
mineralized ground, in order not to miss smaller high conductive metals
(silver, copper etc.) it is recommended not to increase the iMask level too
high.
NOTE :
If the ground is not highly mineralized or does not contain many
hot rocks, setting the iMask to ''0'' is recommended.
Notch Filter
Notch Filter is the ability of the device to discriminate single or multiple
Target IDs by not emitting an audio response for them.
Although Notch Filter may seem similar to Discrimination at first
glance, these two settings have different functions. While the
Discrimination filters out all IDs between 0 and the set value, the
Notch Filter discriminates IDs out individually.
With the Notch Filter, you can reject a single ID or multiple IDs at the
same time. This process does not affect any IDs below or above the
selected IDs. For example, you can filter out IDs between 31-35 as well
as 50 simultaneously.
Notch Filter setting is available in Fast and Deep modes only.
How To Use The Notch Filter Setting
Notch Filter cannot be used within the Discrimination range. In other
words, if the Discrimination is set to 15, Notch Filter can only be applied
to IDs 16 or higher. If you want to notch out IDs 15 or below, first you
need to change the Discrimination value.
To use the Notch Filter, press the SETTINGS button and using the up
and down buttons, select it from the options. On the colored ID bar on
screen, the first ID that you can filter out will be displayed inside the
cursor. For example, if the Discrimination is set to 15, when you select
Notch Filter, number 16 will be displayed inside the cursor.
Let's say you want to reject IDs between 20-25 and 40. Using the plus
(+) and minus (-) buttons, select number 20 and press OK. The cursor will
turn orange and number 20 will be marked with a black line on the ID
bar. Then, using the plus (+) button, go to number 25 and press OK. Now,
the 20-25 interval will be marked in black on the ID bar. At the same
time, the first number of the notched out range (20) will be displayed
under the bar and the last number of the range (25) will be displayed
above the ID bar. Now, using the plus (+) button again, go to number 40
and press OK. Similarly, number 40 will be marked with a black line.
To accept back the filtered IDs, select Notch Filter from SETTINGS. The
cursor will be appear where you last left it and it will be white. Using
the plus (+) or the minus (-) button, move the cursor onto the ID you
want to accept and press OK. Along with the cursor, the black line will
turn orange and the notched out number on screen will disappear.
Iron Audio
It adjusts or turns off the volume of the low iron tone. It consists of 5
levels adjustable with the plus (+) and minus (-) buttons. Factory default
is the maximum level. The adjusted level is indicated with orange color.
5 is the maximum level. As you lower it, the audio response volume
the device produces for ferrous metals will decrease. When it is off,
the iron audio will be silenced. In other words, the device will detect
ferrous targets, the Target ID will be displayed on the screen but the
device will not produce any audio response.
Iron Audio is active in Fast and Deep modes only.
Tone Break
In Fast and Deep modes, this setting is used to adjust the break points
of the target response tones on the Target ID range. Tone Break points
are different in these 2 modes. By using the Tone Break feature, for
each metal group (Ferrous, Gold/Non-Ferrous, Non-Ferrous) you can
change the point where the low tone changes into the higher tone.
When the Tone Break setting is selected, the tone break points of the
metal groups will be shown inside the cursor on the colored ID bar. There
are 2 tone break points in the Fast mode and 1 in the Deep mode.
To change the tone break points, go to the break point you want to
change by using the right and left buttons and press OK. Then, adjust
it using the plus (+) and minus (-) buttons. While adjusting, the number
in the cursor will change and the cursor will move on the ID bar.
To give an example for the above explanation; let's say you are in
the Fast mode and you want to change the Tone Break points. First,
select Tone Break from SETTINGS. The ID bar and the tone break
points of the metal groups will be displayed on the screen. Using the
directional buttons, let's say you increased the ferrous metal tone
break point from 40 to 45. Then, you decreased the tone break point
of the gold/non-ferrous metal group from 66 to 55. In this case, the
device will produce a low iron tone for all metals with IDs less than 45,
a medium tone for metals with IDs 45-55 and a high tone for metals
with IDs equal to and greater than 55 (If you have also adjusted the
Audio Tones, the selected frequency will apply to the new ID ranges).
Save
INVENIO allows you to save your settings during searching. Once you
saved your settings, the device will start with the saved settings upon
next start up.
Save function saves the changes made in other modes as well,
regardless of the mode you are in when you perform the save
function. The device starts in the last mode where the save function
was performed.
Save function saves all settings except for the ground balance, tracking
and frequency shift.
provide accurate data. For this reason, you must calibrate the sensor
upon start up.
First, adjust the shaft length and coil angle to searching position. To
calibrate the sensor, place the search coil on a flat surface, adjust
the search coil angle so that it is parallel with the ground and lean it
against a fixed object such as a tree, rock or a wall. If there is no place
to lean it against, hold it stable with your hand. Press the SETTINGS
button and select ''Calibrate the sensor''. The message ''Please place
the coil on a flat surface as shown in the figure and press ok will be
displayed on screen. Press the OK button. You will see the message ''
Calibrating the sensor, please wait.'' Once the progress bar is full, the
calibration will be completed and the device will automatically revert
to the selected mode's detection screen.
