Features:
- SENSITIVITY: Set the sensitivity at a level that does not result in false signals from the ground. Very mineralized ground may result in the symbol on screen and a loud sound: this means the Sensitivity setting is too high.
- GROUND BALANCE: With the default setting, the detector will use XGB to automatically ground balance. Tap to lock the ground balance to the current setting. Tapping when the ground balance is locked will update the current ground mineralization setting to what is currently under the coil.
- GROUND SCAN: Hold to put the detector into Ground Scan mode. The top bar displays the ground mineralization strength and the two digit numbers display the ground type (phase). Useful for tracing paystreaks.
- IRON CANCEL: Tap to silence hot rocks, trash and mineral changes in both audio modes. Hold to select the Iron Cancel setting (1 bar is default). Note that this setting may decrease sensitivity of the detector to very small gold, but is necessary in difficult ground conditions.
- VOLUME and THRESHOLD: Tap to adjust the volume with the up and down buttons. Hold to adjust the Threshold with the up and down buttons. Set these to a comfortable level for your hearing and preference.
- AUDIO MODE: With the displayed on screen, the detector is in BEEP audio mode (high tone = good target, low tone = bad target). The default setting (without on screen) is a traditional All-Metal audio mode with greater sensitivity to small targets.
- SAT: SAT can smooth out ground inconsistencies. Hold to adjust it (2 is the default setting).
- PINPOINT: Hold for non-motion pinpoint mode. In difficult ground this mode may be affected by mineralization.
- BACKLIGHT: Tap to enable the backlight (the battery life will be reduced).
- FREQUENCY SHIFT: Hold when turning the detector on to shift frequency (useful when there is EMI). Power off to save the selection.
- FACTORY RESET: Hold when turning the detector on to perform a factory reset.
