Went yesterday to clear out some trash in my test garden and add some more targets. Was using Gold 1 program.

For the first time I went and pushed the pin point button in the gold program and it did not work. I never tried to use pin point in that mode before but on my ORX pinpoint only works on the coin programs.

Is it the same with your ORX as well??

Checked the manual and nothing in there at all on the pin point feature except for pairing it to the MI-6.
 
Hi bigtim1973. That is how mine works too. Maybe it is because pinpoint mode in the Gold modes is basically the same thing as the Gold modes themselves. Personally, I rarely use pinpoint mode or a pinpointer when I'm gold prospecting. That would take all of the fun out of scraping a scoop across the top of the coil and scratching it up real good. I am going to try using the Mi-6 more in the Gold modes though since it appears to work just like it does in the Coin modes.

I have to say, the english version of the ORX manual is pitiful. So much was left out including any mention of the pinpoint function built into the ORX in the Coin modes which actually turns out to be an excellent depth meter too. It is way easier to pinpoint and ground balance on the ORX than it is on the Deus. The ORX just doesn't get much love for all of its excellent, somehow undocumented features....

Yeah Jeff you are right, the manual could go into a little more detail on settings.

I appreciate your input as I never attempted pinpoint in gold mode before. So mine is working as it should.

I can see how the pin point feature in gold mode would take all of the real fun out of prospecting and having to scrap every little crack completely out to fine your small pin head sized nugget!!

Thanks again!!
 
If you mean is there no pinpoint mode in Goldfield on the Deus, no there isn't.

The pinpoint button becomes a ground balance Ground Grab button in Goldfield.
