NOISE CANCEL
The detector may become noisy or erratic 
due to electrical interference from powerlines, 
electrical equipment or other detectors 
operating close by. This interference is 
interpreted as a crackling or popping noise.
Noise Cancel allows you to change the noise 
cancel channel so that you experience less 
interference. Three channels are available for 
the 305, represented by the numbers –1, 0 
and 1 and are also indicated on the menu 
scale. Five channels are available for the 505, 
represented by the numbers –2, –1, 0, 1 and 2.
It is best to choose a channel with the coil in 
the detection (horizontal) position because 
interference received in a vertical position may 
be different from the interference received in 
the horizontal position.
The coil should be held in the air and away 
from large targets when changing channels.
