[. . . ] Set the control to the "Initial Setting Triangle" ( between level 90 & 100 ). Although the setting of 90-100 gives more than enough SENS, if the ground mineralization is low enough, you might attempt to raise the SENS above 100. NOTE: Ground Mineralization too high, large or shallow target message. 14 Chapter 5 MXT Controls Chapter 5 M6 Controls SENS Control SENS Adjustment (continued) 5. While using a steady slow search coil sweep speed, simultaneously advance SENS towards "100". If the "OVERLOAD-REDUCE SENS/ LIFT LOOP" alert keeps popping up on the display, or if ground noises make it difficult to recognize metal targets, reduce SENS counterclockwise. capability of the M6 also functions more accurately when the SENS is set at a level which allows for smooth operation. Too much SENS can cause bad ground to distort the proper identification of iron and non-iron targets. Note: It is normal to hear changes, clicks or soft beeps, coming from the audio (speaker) during SENS adjustments as the circuit shifts between hardware and software SENS (different electrical parts of the circuitry). The SENS control adjusts both the hardware SENS (physical component) as well as the software SENS (computer code) alternating between the two throughout it's range. As the M6 shifts between these two intricate parts of the circuitry an audio indication notes the transitions. If you adjust the SENS slightly, the audio notes a significant rather than slight change. The M6 provides more SENS control range than is typically useful. Few areas will allow maximum SENS (full clockwise) without at least some noisy operation. Settings in the 100+ area require a high degree of operator skill and patience. SENS Adjustment (continued) If, of course, "OVERLOAD-REDUCE SENS/ LIFT LOOP" message is displayed, common for very nasty ground mineralization, you must heed it and reduce the SENS rather than raise it. If the ground is highly mineralized, SENS settings well below this initial triangle may be necessary to identify metal items, and will still provide ample detection depth. In addition, any increase in SENS adjustment should NOT BE at the expense of maintaining predictable results without false signals, beeps and static from bits of mineralization (erratic behavior). 15 Chapter 5 M6 Controls Chapter 5 MXT Controls DISC CONTROL DISC (Discrimination) Control DISC (Discrimination) is used to adjust the level of audio rejection against trash metals. The (Preset) just below NICKEL is recommended for most general purpose searching. In this position, the detector will provide a reject response to most iron and small foil and respond to most valuables including jewelry. Positions lower than (counterclockwise) provide less trash metal rejection, to the point of detecting virtually all types of common metals. Positions higher than (clockwise) will reject more trash metals including aluminum pull tabs. The display will continue to indicate I. D. even though the audio discriminator will signal with a reject (suppressed or broken) sound. Nickels and some jewelry will also be rejected with DISC settings much greater than .
