Main Menu > Audio > SOUNDS
The SOUNDS menu allows you to define how the pitch varies with
target characteristics. This can be a very useful feature in identifying
targets in close proximity to one another. It is possible to instruct the
detector to emit a distinct sound responding to an objects ferrous
characteristics, rather than its conductive properties. To test sounds
upon selection it is necessary to move the coil across one or more
targets with different conductive and ferrous properties.
Constant
Main Menu > Audio > Sounds > CONST
Selecting CONST eliminates the variation of the pitch upon detection.
If selected, the Explorer II will emit a consistent tone regardless of the
target detected.
Conductivity
Main Menu > Audio > Sounds > CONDUCT
Conduct is the factory preset and Minelabs recommended option.
Selecting CONDUCT adjusts the tone to identify the object relative to
its conductivity (the vertical axis of the Smartfind screen).
A high pitched tone denotes a large, highly conductive object with
target crosshair displayed near the top of the Smartfind screen
(or near a Digital rating of 32).
A low pitched tone denotes a small object with low conductivity. The
target crosshair is displayed near the bottom of the Smartfind screen
(or near a Digital rating of 1).
