Minelab GPX 5000 User Manual

71
Medium
In ground conditions which make operating in Fixed
impractical, the factory preset Medium setting provides
a good compromise between effectively maintaining the
Ground Balance and pausing the Ground Balance when a
target is located.
Fast
The Fast Tracking Speed is very effective at adjusting the
Ground Balance in highly variable soils. Its use will only be
required in extreme cases.
Coils with Tracking
Tracking tends to be more aggressive when using a Monoloop
coil. Faint, deep targets may be ‘tracked out’. In extreme, highly
variable soil types you may achieve better performance by
using a Double D coil instead of a Monoloop, and then select
the most appropriate Tracking Speed.
Initial Very Fast Ground Balance
Every time you switch from Fixed to Tracking on the front
control panel, or via the Quick-Trak button, the GPX Series will
initiate a very fast auto Ground Balance. The Tracking Speed
does not affect the speed of the initial very fast auto
Ground Balance.
