Depth Gauge - Minelab VANQUISH 340 User Manual

Pinpoint
LOCATE A TARGET
Once a target has been detected, the manual pinpointing
technique locates the exact position before digging� This
means less digging, and faster recovery of the target�
1� Sweep the coil slowly across the target location keeping
the coil parallel to the ground�
2� Locate the centre of the target by listening for the loudest
target signal response�
3� Make a mental note of the position, or mark a line on the
soil with your shoe or a digging tool�
4� Move to one side so that you can pass the coil over the
target at right angles to your initial direction�
5� Repeat steps 1 and 3 from your new position� The target is
located where the two imaginary lines cross�

Depth Gauge

The Depth Gauge indicates the approximate depth of a
detected target�
The Depth Gauge is a guide only� Fewer arrows indicate a
shallower target, more arrows indicate a deeper target� The
accuracy can vary depending on the target type and ground
conditions�
After a target is detected, the Depth Gauge will remain on the
LCD for up to 5 seconds, or until the next target is detected�
When there is no detection, the Depth Gauge icon and arrows
are turned off�
