Tracking Mode
Magnetic ground
(prg DIVING / BEACH / BEACH SENS only)
Tracking is an automatic ground correction mode. It questions the ground continuously to determine its
average value. This mode can be useful if the ground mineralization is relatively uniform and changes
slowly. This mode is not suitable in ground where mineralization has been generated by old human set-
tlements due to the discrepancies in the ground effects. In just one sweep, a number of ground events in
succession can be too varied, so that an average value will not be conclusive. Therefore use the GRAB
mode as a preference.

GROUND
When searching magnetic ground such as black sand, deep targets may be masked
because their values are similar the soil values. The Magnetic Ground setting allows
you to accept low tones generated by the ground, ferrite, meteorites as well as dis-
tant targets that are usually masked.
REJECT: Black sand, ferrite and meteorites are rejected, this is the default mode
and the most stable.
ACCEPT: Black sand, ferrite, meteorites and good deep targets are accepted with
a positive sound.
Manual Mode (prg DEUS MONO only)
Read the numeric value displayed by the mineralization index when you pump the coil on the ground for a
few seconds, then adjust the ground effects manually with
-
and
+
to achieve the same values.
Manual mode is not available in multi-frequency programs, as it would be tedious to set each frequency
independently. The Grab mode advantageously allows to capture the ground value of each frequency
simultaneously.
