GROUND GRAB (Ground Balance)
: All soil contains minerals which can impact the
ability for any metal detector to locate small or deeply buried targets. The TC1X has been
designed to sense the actual ground mineralization present at the search location and
automatically calibrate itself to reduce or eliminate the effect the mineralization would
otherwise have on detection depth and sensitivity. This ensures you obtain maximum
performance from your detector under a wide range of soil conditions. The following steps
cover the proper method of using the
GROUND GRAB (Ground Balance)
function:
Find an area that is free of metal - use the
ALL METAL
option to check the area
before proceeding
Hold the search coil about 6 inches above the ground and press the "
GG
" touchpad
and then the
ENTER
touchpad to activate the
GROUND GRAB (Ground Balance)
function
Lower the coil to the ground and raise it back up several times until you receive the
message "
GRAB OK
."
If you receive the "
GRAB ER
" message, either repeat the process or try a different
location as there may be metal or some other problem at the spot you initially
attempted to calibrate the coil to the ground conditions with the
GROUND GRAB
(Ground Balance)
function.
Remember, optimal performance of your detector will depend on its proper calibration
through the use of the
GROUND GRAB (Ground Balance)
function. It is recommended
that you occasionally repeat the process to ensure that changes in ground conditions are
being compensated for as conditions can change even at the same location.

DISCRIMINATION
:
A metal detector by its design locates all metals; however, it is not possible to recover
every piece of metal in a given site. The DISCRIMINATION mode is the one that is used
for actual searching and allows you to select what targets will be accepted or rejected.
You can adjust the level of rejection from none (all metal objects will produce a response)
to a level at which most unwanted targets will be rejected (silver coins, silver jewelry and
similar targets will produce a response). Sweep speed can affect the ability of the
detector to accurately identify and discriminate targets. Sweeping too slow can impact
detection depth and discrimination capabilities of your TC1X.

NOTCH DISCRIMINATION
: The TC1X was designed with ease-of-use in mind and
the NOTCH DISCRIMINATION function allows you to quickly select a predefined program
designed to let you find treasure and dig less trash. Unlike conventional discrimination
