Th Level
During the search in Non-Motion mode, the Threshold should be set to a level that
ensures audibility. This ensures that the detector is working properly and its range is maximized.
Th Sens
As in the Motion mode - the tone of the Threshold is chosen so that the user does not
become distracted.
VCO
VCO is a function that allows the pitch of the All metal channel to smoothly change
depending on the signal strength. Human hearing perfectly distinguishes even slight changes in
sound frequencies – as a result, an experienced searcher is able to recognize the size and
depth of the object, and in many cases can recognize their mutual position. We strongly
recommend using the VCO from the very start of your experience with the detector.
Th SAT
The Th SAT function reduces the effects of external conditions on the operation of the All
metal channel of the detector. To put it simply: by using this setting we can prevent the detector
mistuning in the sun. Another important function of SAT is changing the response of the All
metal channel. For high SAT settings (especially SAT = 20) the user has the ability to audibly
differentiate between a large number of small objects laying at a shallow depth from one big
object. A setting of 0 means that the Th SAT circuit is completely turned off – detector is fully
non-motion. With this SAT setting, care must be taken to ensure proper and frequent Ground
balance because the detector will signal each change in soil mineralization, especially at the
transition from e.g. forest to field, as well as under the roots of large trees or near animal dens.
Less skilled users can overcome this by using higher SAT values. When set to 20, the SAT
function is maximally fast.
NOTE: Turning the Th SAT circuit on can result in a decrease in the range of the detector’s All
metal channel. The amount of range loss will depend on the speed at which the search coil is
moved.
Setting Adjustment range

In the Dual mode, settings similar to Motion and Non-Motion mode settings are available.
They have the same meaning and action. In the Dual mode, the Audio gain is not set - this
parameter is held steady at the optimum level.
