STARTING IN ADVANCED MODE
Beginning Advanced use
To enter Advanced mode from Quickstart, press the MAIN MENU
shortcut button, select OPTIONS and then ADVANCED. Then
press the DETECT shortcut button to display the Advanced
Smartfind screen.
If you operated in Advanced mode last time you used the Explorer,
the detector will remember this. To enter the Advanced mode when
first switching on, press and quickly release the POWER shortcut
button.
Any time you want to move from Advanced mode to Quickstart just
select the MAIN MENU shortcut button, OPTIONS and then select
QUICK. Pressing the DETECT shortcut button will return you to
Quickstart’s Smartfind screen.
CAUTION Restoring factory settings by pressing and
holding the POWER button erases all current user settings.
This does not affect user preferences and discrimination
patterns that have been saved (see pages 80 and 87).
Advanced target preferences
The tutorials on the last few pages of Chapter 5: Quickstart
provided instructions on composing your own discrimination pattern
with combinations of items from the SELECT menu.
Advanced mode offers numerous options to further enhance the
accuracy of your detecting. To this end, the following section deals
with target options in Advanced mode’s LEARN and EDIT displays
before proceeding to other Menu functions.
From this point on, it is assumed
that you have familiarized yourself
with the Quickstart chapter of this
Manual and spent a reasonable
amount of time using your
Explorer. If you have not read the
Quickstart chapter, please do so
before proceeding.
Are you ready?
