Custom Name ( )
Changing your Custom Search Mode name.
You can personalise any of the four Custom Search Modes
with a name from the Custom Name list.
For example, if you regularly detect in exposed bedrock you
can set your own Custom 'Bedrock' Search Mode:
1 Select Custom on the Search Mode switch (located on the
Front Control Panel).
2 Scroll down the menu and a Search Mode will be
highlighted, e.g. Patch.
3 Scroll to the bottom of the menu until you see
Custom Name.
4 Using the Setting knob, scroll down until 'Bedrock' is
selected, then move the function knob to apply the
name change.
5 The Search Mode name is now Bedrock and any mode
specific setting changes you make are automatically saved
when you switch the unit off.
6 You can now switch between Deep, General and Custom/
Bedrock via the Search Mode switch on the front panel.
Note: Even when doing an All Settings Factory Reset your
Bedrock, and other Custom Search Mode, settings are
still preserved.

To find a target, and reduce the size of the hole required to
remove it from the ground, it is necessary to pinpoint the
exact location of the target.
If a target is heard, first confirm it by setting an accurate
Ground Balance away from the target. To Ground Balance, if
detecting in Fixed position, hold down the Quick-Trak button
and pass the coil around the area of the target, making sure
the target is not detected (keep the coil well away from where
the target is). Once completed release the button.
If detecting in Tracking, move the coil slowly around the area
of the target keeping well away from the target itself. Hold
down the Quick-Trak button to go to Fixed and pinpoint
across the target.
Note: Accurate pinpointing is also important to prevent
damage to the buried object, which can significantly
reduce it’s value.
Pinpointing
Locating the target.
Tip: If, after Ground
Balancing around the
target, you sweep over
the target area and the
signal has disappeared,
it was most likely just
ground noise.
Caution: Pinpointing
a target should be
done with Fixed
Ground Balance.
