Multi-Frequency Operation
In addition to powerful single frequencies, Apex
oers two multi-frequency operating platforms. Each
multi-frequency option is a combination of multiple
frequencies being transmitted, received and processed
simultaneously.
The standard Multi-Frequency Mode (labeled as MF on
its menu) employs a blend of frequencies that provide
maximum target detection on all types and sizes of tar-
gets, while also minimizing ground noise. Intended for
land use hunting.
Apex’s Multi-Frequency Salt Mode (labeled as MS on its
menu) utilizes a blend of frequencies to help overcome
the negative eects of saltwater beaches.
As you move from the dry sand into the wet sand and
into the shallow water, increasing levels of salt minerals
may cause your detector to become unstable. Switch
to Multi-Frequency Salt Mode to achieve maximum
stability and target detection. Ground balance your
detector if needed.
In saltwater areas with more highly mineralized sands,
you may choose to reduce Sensitivity to achieve maxi-
mum stability.

Multi-Frequency Options
Garrett’s Multi-Flex Multi-Frequency technology, fueled
by a cutting edge, broad-bandwidth digital platform,
oers you complete detecting exibility. Each of the 6
frequency options is available while operating in any
Apex search mode (i.e., Jewelry, Relics, Coins, etc.).
Choose from powerful single frequencies where all of
the detector’s transmitter power is focused into one
frequency to oer enhanced detection on certain
types of targets. Or select one of Apex’s simultaneous
multi-frequency modes to achieve excellent detection
on all targets in all soils.
Single Frequency Operation
Apex oers 4 single frequencies of 5 kHz, 10 kHz, 15 kHz,
and 20 kHz. In certain detecting situations, using a sin-
gle frequency may oer a slight advantage over use of
one of Apex’s multi-frequency modes.
For example, using 20 kHz to search for small gold nug-
gets or hammered silver coins may oer enhanced
detection. Selecting 5 kHz to search for larger, high
conductive targets such as large silver coins might be
another advantage.
Single frequency operation may oer quieter operation
than multi-frequency in some noisy environments with
high electromagnetic interference.
