5. The Eureka Gold Controls
This section gives detailed descriptions of the controls of the Eureka Gold
detector and their functionality. Having knowledge of these controls means
that you will be able to achieve the best performance from your detector.
As you gain experience with your detector it may be useful to refer back to
this section.
The Control Panel of the Eureka Gold has been carefully designed,
especially the placement of the controls, so those you will need to use
most frequently are at your finger tips (see figure 12).
5.1 Volume Control
The Volume Control incorporates the On/Off switch. It is off when the
control is fully counter clockwise. Turn the Volume Control clockwise and
the Eureka Gold ‘clicks’ on.
This control sets a maximum limit on the loudness of the audio signal
obtained from various targets. If the Volume Control is close to the
maximum, the audio signal is proportional to the target signal level
(see figure 13). However, if the Volume Control is turned down, the audio
signal is the same for a smaller target, but limited for a bigger target.
