70 71Pinpointing
Locating the Target
To find an object and reduce the size of the
hole required to remove it from the ground, it is
necessary to pinpoint the exact location of the
object.
If a target is heard, first confirm it by setting an
accurate Ground Balance away from the target and
then pinpointing. 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 that 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, then hold down the Quick-Trak button
to go to Fixed and pinpoint across the target.
Double-D Setting Monoloop (M) Setting (with DD coil)
Strongest Signal
When a target is detected, sweep the general area
with the coil, taking note of where the strongest
signal is received.
By shortening the length of the sweep it should be
possible to draw an imaginary line in the ground
where the strongest signal is located.
Line up the target at 90° from the initial direction
and repeat the process. The object is located where
the two imaginary lines cross.
Note: With the Coil/Rx switch set to Monoloop or
Cancel, pinpointing will not locate a target in the
centre of the coil, the target will be slightly to the left.
