TARGET PINPOINTING (in PINPOINT mode)

After you have identified a target using a motion mode of detection, press-and-hold the PINPOINT pad to identify the target’s exact location. This technique can yield more information about the target’s shape and size and also find its exact location to facilitate extraction.

Pinpoint as follows:

1.Position the search coil just barely off the ground, and to the side of the target.

2.Now move the search coil slowly across the target, and you can locate it by the sound. The target is located directly under where the sound is loudest.

Narrow It Down:

1.To narrow the response further, position the center of the search coil near the center of the response pattern, but not directly over the

center.

2. Release the PINPOINT touch pad.

3.Press-and-hold PINPOINT pad again.

4.Repeat this narrowing procedure to narrow the field of detection further.

Note: Depth indication is less accurate after narrowing.

COIL DRIFT

If you plan to use the PINPOINT mode for continuous searching, realize that drift will occur over time, causing the detector to gain or lose sensitivity. Periodic retuning of the detector is required to minimize drift; release and press PINPOINT

again to retune.
