5. General features The different levels of soil mineralisation you encounter when prospecting can sometimes affect the performance of your detector For example this may be due to natural magnetic mineralisation such as iron oxide hot rocks and magnetite or sporadic mineralisation from sites of former human settlement also magnetic hearths pottery hot rocks slag etc At the seashore this may also involve mineralisation ranging from magnetic grade black sand to electrical conductor grade salt water depending on the beach or region If you are an experienced detectorist you may wish to optimise your searches to achieve better penetration in some of these mineralised soils In magnetic ground with relatively uniform mineralisation a setting which is adjusted according to the ground effect will improve penetration by reducing the amplitude of the ground signals sent back by the receiver circuits This adapted setting involves adjusting your ground balance value to the mean value of the ground being prospected while adding 1 so as not to hear the ground signals as much The tracking and pumping modes do this automatically if the ground conditions allow it Attention As the ground balance setting is the one requiring the most experience of the ground we recommend that you read this chapter carefully and use the different ground balance modes advisedly while acquiring your own experience of the ground By default remain in ma

11. even if the coil is motionless above a target In modern detectors static mode is most often used to locate a target more precisely pinpointing However this mode is also very useful for detecting the presence of metal in cramped locations where there is not enough space to swing the coil or if there is too much interfering metal around the target For example locating hiding places inside houses cellars and walls Static mode is also widely used in the construction industry to locate metal pipes as it enables them to be continually tracked Place the coil at a height of approximately 5 cm above the ground on a zone free of metal targets Press Pinpoint The sound threshold is calibrated and you are switched to static mode Calibration of the threshold can be repeated at any time by pressing the Pinpoint button again If you are continually searching in static mode you will need to recalibrate this threshold at regular intervals The stability and sensitivity of the static mode will depend on how effectively the detector has been calibrated If you recalibrate the threshold with the coil too far from the ground then sensitivity will be lower but the device will be more stable If you recalibrate the threshold with the coil too close to the ground then its sensitivity in static mode will be high but the device will be unstable on the ground The ground mineralisation should help you determine the best height for obtainin

14. you feel comfortable with this exercise you can also try out some of the pre configured settings OPTIMISE YOUR SEARCHING When detecting it is important that you sweep the coil parallel to the ground using wide movements as close as possible to the surface without actually touching it Proximity to the ground will increase the likelihood of detecting a deep target and will enable the most discreet objects to be identified more easily You are advised to avoid knocking the coil as although it is designed to tolerate this kind of stress careful treatment will prolong the life ofthe device and guarantee you better perception of targets CORRECT INCORRECT OPTIMISE YOUR SEARCHING continued When you are detecting you are free to choose the rate at which you move For example if you prefer to cover a zone at high speed while detecting this will certainly give you a global snapshot of the site However it is clear that this way of detecting will also leave large areas of ground unexplored between each sweep On the other hand if you insist on closely scrutinising every inch of the ground you should ensure that each sweep slightly overlaps the previous one in order to reduce to a minimum the area that your coil has not scanned You should also bear in mind that you will further increase your chances of finding and identifying a target by sweeping more slowly This particularly applies in metal infested ground when there are
