THE MINELAB EXPLORER II

 

AUDIO RESPONSE

 

 

The Explorer II emits a target audio response that varies in pitch and volume depending

 

on what type of object it detects.

 

 

 

Pitch of response

 

 

Figure 5.13

 

 

Generally, a target that is highly conductive (e.g. a large silver

 

 

coin) emits a high pitched signal. A low pitch is sounded for less

 

 

conductive targets. Large targets or targets close to the ground

 

Figure 5.13 Target sounding response

surface emit a louder signal.

 

 

 

 

In Quickstart’s preset function, Coins Discrimination, the target

 

 

audio response is emitted if a target is predominantly non-ferrous

 

 

when the target crosshair is displayed in the clear part of the

 

 

Smartfind screen (Figure 5.13).

 

 

As you detect different targets you will quickly find it easy to

 

 

identify objects by the audio and visual responses of the Explorer II.

 

 

Directions for familiarizing yourself with specific target responses

Headphones Caution!

Adjusting the volume

QUICKSTART

 

 

 

The preset volume control on the Explorer II is turned up to

 

When using headphones, volume

maximum volume. This is usually appropriate with either the

 

detector’s built-in speaker or headphones. If the volume is too loud

 

level should be adjusted to protect

 

in the headphones, use the volume control.

 

your hearing from excessive

 

 

 

sound.

Main Menu > Audio > Volume > Max. Limit can be set to reduce

 

 

potentially loud signals (see page 54).
