SEARCH MODES
FINDX
FINDX PRO
FINDX has different number of search modes based on
the version but all designed for different terrains and
targets. There are 3 search modes in the FINDX and 4
in the FINDX Pro version. You can navigate between the
modes easily by using the mode button. The selected
mode will be highlighted in black.
Field Mode
Recommended especially for relic hunting. It
produces good results particularly on clean
sites which do not contain waste metal. More
depth can be obtained on sites which are
rocky or trashy, by using the notch discrimination
setting and swinging the search coil more slowly (one
right/left pass per approximately 1 second).
In this mode, the device produces a low tone for ferrous
targets with IDs between and including 01 and 14. For
non-ferrous targets with IDs 15-99, it produces a higher
tone which increases in pitch as the coil approaches
the target.
Park Mode
It is a 3-tone search mode designed for coin
and jewelry hunting in urban areas and parks
where there are lots of modern trash (aluminum
foil, pull-tabs, bottle caps etc.) present.
In this mode, the device produces a low tone for ferrous
targets with 01-14 IDs, a medium tone for gold and non-
ferrous metals with IDs 15-41 and a high tone for non-
ferrous metals with IDs 42-99 such as silver, brass and
copper.
Jewelry Mode
(Only FINDX Pro)
It is a 4-tone search mode. In this mode, the
device produces a low tone for ferrous targets
with 0-14 IDs, a medium tone for gold and
non-ferrous metals with IDs 15-70, a medium-
high tone for metals with 71-80 IDs, and a high tone for
non-ferrous metals with IDs 81-99.
Beach Mode
This is a special mode of the FINDX developed
for conductive grounds (salty wet sand
beach, grounds with alkali soil etc.). The
feature of this mode presents the ability to
ignore iron and similar targets in this group.
Different than the other modes, targets with 0-15 IDs
are notched out by default and cannot be changed in
order to ignore ferrous metals or ground noise. In this
mode, the device produces a medium tone for gold and
non-ferrous metals with IDs 15-99.
Salt water and alkali grounds are significantly
conductive due to high ionization and cause effects
similar to that of iron in detectors. These effects may
make it impossible to search for metals with a standard
detector.
FINDX’s beach mode eliminates such effects and
ground noise. Aspects to be taken into consideration
while searching on conductive grounds are explained in
more detail in the section titled Detection on the Beach
and Underwater.
