Tracking Speed
Keeping up with changing ground.
Tracking Ground Balance is the preferred setting when
searching in highly variable mineralisation. Tracking Ground
Balance automatically measures the ground mineralisation
and adjusts the Ground Balance as necessary, to maintain
stability and detection depth. The speed of the Tracking can
be changed to suit the degree of variable mineralisation.
The GPX 5000 and GPX 4800 have three Auto Tracking Speed
options: Slow, Medium & Fast.
The preferred Tracking Speed is the slowest speed which
keeps up with the variability of the ground mineralisation. You
should gradually increase from Slow Tracking Speed, Medium
Tracking Speed, then Fast Tracking Speed as required.
Slow
The Slow Tracking Speed is recommended if seeking out large,
deep targets in variable ground, but you should check your
ground balance often and re-balance (p. 41)
whenever necessary.
Note: If you are detecting in highly variable ground, a
slower sweep speed will give Tracking more time to
re-ground balance.
