CONTENTS
The Recovery Speed setting alters how quickly
the detector responds from detecting one
target to detecting another target.
By increasing the Recovery Speed, the detector is able
to better differentiate between multiple targets that are
close together. This assists in high-trash areas with finding
smaller desired targets amongst larger iron trash.
X-TERRA PRO has 3 Target Recovery Speed settings.
Recovery Speed adjustment is local; only the current Search
Mode Profile is affected by changes to this setting.
While using a higher target Recovery Speed may increase
the ability of the detector to find difficult targets, it also
results in reduced Target ID accuracy and less detection
depth.
'Good' non-ferrous

masked by the 'bad'
ferrous target response.
'Good' non-ferrous target

ADJUST RECOVERY SPEED
When adjusting the Recovery Speed for the first time, lay
out some targets close together to test how the detector
responds with different Recovery Speed settings.
1. Press the Settings button to navigate to the Recovery
Speed setting.
2. Use the Minus (–) and Plus (+) buttons to decrease
or increase the Recovery Speed. Adjustments are
automatically saved.
SWING RATE
A good general swing rate is around 2 to 3 seconds from
right-to-left-to-right. A higher Recovery Speed generally
allows you to swing at a faster rate without missing many
targets.
A higher Recovery Speed at the same swing rate will
help to reject ground noise, however it will also decrease
detection depth.
If you are experiencing high levels of ground noise at the
beach, or when detecting underwater, try increasing the
Recovery Speed to reduce the noise.
A lower Recovery Speed at the same swing rate will
increase detection depth, however may increase noise.
Varying both Recovery Speed and swing rate can help
minimise ground noise.
