AUDIO RESPONSE
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
surface emit a louder signal.
In Quickstarts 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
appear toward the end of this chapter.
Adjusting the volume
The preset volume control on the Explorer II is turned up to
maximum volume. This is usually appropriate with either the
detectors built-in speaker or headphones. If the volume is too loud
in the headphones, use the volume control.
Main Menu > Audio > Volume > Max. Limit can be set to reduce
potentially loud signals (see page 54).
The Explorer II emits a target audio response that varies in pitch and volume depending
on what type of object it detects.
