    PINPOINTING PROBLEM

    So, this is your 3rd machine? Tx Boost can add depth if your ground isn't too mineralized. You say you have good ground in NY, so I would expect Tx Boost not to cause a problem if that's the case. Are you running with wireless headphones? What is your WHP power setting? If you have it...

    PINPOINTING PROBLEM

    1) You mentioned that your machine became erratic. 1a) What does erratic mean exactly? 1b) Is that all the time? Or only near certain areas? 1c) Is it only when you have your settings cranked up, or all the time? 1d) Do you have a coil cover on your loop? 1e) Have you tried...

    Not true. Have you called Whites?

    Ground balance algorithm?

    2 ways: 1) press and hold enter on the track live control. Then bob your loop up and down until the change in audio is minimized. -or- 2) While pulling the trigger (pinpoint mode) press and hold the enter button. Bob the detector as above. Be sure to release enter before releasing the...

    Resetting everything back to factory default?

    In the expert menu, 'program' 'new/copy' 'Library program' check 'Use library name' select the program tab to 'create' and press enter You need to do them one at a time, there is not a restore all at once option.

    What causes....

    When you looked at your ground reading, did you zero with the loop in the air? You need to zero with the loop in the air before lowering the loop to the ground.

    QUESTION....

    The best way to check your coil is to set your gain to 15, turn Tx Boost on with the coil in the air (not on the ground or around other metal). If you don't get an overload (audio groan, display status), your coil is good. That is what the detector is designed for - not overloading at the...

    1st day with my new V3

    Some things to try - I probably will miss some, but here's some anyway: 1) Switch to a band pass filter as the band pass filters will filter out more noise than the high pass filters 2) Try different frequency offsets 3) Try the various single frequencies 4) Lower disc sens 5) Try correlate...

    Double D Null Question

    I'm confused - did they give the overload groan with Tx Boost on, and gain set to 15 in the air? If so, then the coil is bad (at least for the V). If there isn't any overload, you have good coils and not to worry. The recommended gain was calculated for an arbitrary percentage of used signal...

    Double D Null Question

    In the air (NOT on the ground) if you crank your gain to 15, and turn TxBoost on, does your machine overload? If you get the overload groan, then your coil is bad. (Make sure there is no metal by your loop...) Do you notice a significant difference in performance between the loops (does the...

    Thinking of getting a V3....

    Maybe you accidentally selected the Prizm manual? It has 3 tones.

    Thinking of getting a V3....

    There are 191 VDI's but there are 255 tones to choose from for each VDI. (Actually 256 for setting up VDI tones - 0 = silence. For target tone, overload... there are only the 255, but setting up the individual VDI tones, there is the additional silence "tone").

    Restore/Reload Program function not working

    I think you interpreted correctly. But, I think what made it into the manual was old information. I just made a bunch of new programs and it looks like I can get 26 in before I get the max program message. There's lots more room in the library than 26, so if you ever find yourself with more...

    Restore/Reload Program function not working

    I think something did. But, it will have restored to the program listed at the top. So, say that Coin is the name of the program on the first line (that's the program mine comes up with by default), when you went to restore the erased program, it put the meteorite settings in the coin program...

    Restore/Reload Program function not working

    You deleted the program from the list. Because it's been erased, you don't have it in the list to "restore to". Where you need to go is the new/copy option rather than the restore/load option. Expert menu/program/NewCopy/Erased Program Check: Use erased name Select: Meteorite press Create...

    Restore/Reload Program function not working

    Hmmm. Well, I had a modified coin program. (Showed a +/- after the name - I had saved my settings to the loaded program). Expert menu/program/RestoreLoad/ Name = Coin From Library Program = Coin pressed Load. It is back to the factory defaults I made a new program which I called AB...

    Restore/Reload Program function not working

    I haven't seen anything not work. What exactly are you trying to do? Restore a deleted file? Or restore a program that exists with the factory settings? Or...? Let me know, and then I will try it out and see if I can figure out what's going on for you.
