This question is about the CTX 3030 of course.
I believe I understand one part of Shutdown/Recovery time because the things that I have read have been consistent. But the other half has been inconsistent and confusing.
This I think is correct:
When using the detector in a mode with discrimination, and the coil passes over a rejected target, the threshold will 'blank,' and the detector will go silent. Minelab calls this Shutdown time. There is a Recovery time in which the detector will not detect a nearby target. Neither an accepted target, nor rejected target. I think this is correct. If I've got it wrong let me know.
The confusion comes with detecting accepted targets. I've read different things. Suppose, in All Metal mode, the detector detects a target. Is there an associated Shutdown/Recovery time before the detector will detect a nearby target? And, if there is a Shutdown/Recovery time, is it the same as the threshold blank Recovery time?
