Introducing Tone

Tone is the frequency of sound emitted on target detection. It is

 

 

important to experiment with tone settings and listen carefully to

 

Figure 5.18 Tone menu

tone variations during your detecting. To test variation in tones

 

 

upon selection it will be helpful to move the coil across a few

 

 

different targets spaced apart.

 

 

Threshold tone

 

 

Threshold Tone allows you to adjust the tone of the threshold

 

 

‘hum’. This can be modified using the slider control to suit your

 

 

preferred threshold tone.

 

 

Variability

Variability controls how much the tone will change depending on

 

QUICKSTART

 

change in pitch. Variation of pitch between targets can greatly

 

the target’s characteristics. A setting of 10 represents significant

 

 

variation from target to target. A setting of 1 represents minimum

 

 

assist in identifying targets in close proximity to one another.

 

 

Limits

 

 

This sets the upper limit of all tones emitted by the Explorer II.

 

 

Minelab recommends setting the upper limit to the highest frequency

 

 

you are comfortable with. You can test the upper limits with a highly

 

 

conductive object (e.g. a large silver coin). Setting the limit to 1 will

 

 

produce only low pitch target signals, a setting of 10 will provide

 

 

very high as well as low pitch signals.
