Volume; Threshold; Tone Id - White's MX Sport User Manual

Disc Tips: In the DISC menu option, if the zone selection cursor
is left under a particular zone for a couple seconds, the text will
change from DISC to a short descriptor of what kind of targets
one might find in that zone, (e.g. GOLD, QUARTR, etc.)
In the DISC menu option, all zones to the left of the zone selection
cursor can be discriminated, and all others accepted, by holding
the pinpoint button for a short time. The disc mask can be quickly
cleared by placing the cursor on the lowest zone, and holding the
pinpoint button.

Volume

Volume adjusts how loudly a metal target beeps. The MX Sport
provides adequate volume levels for individuals with good hearing.
Those with impaired hearing should use headphones.
To Adjust Volume:
1. Press Options and use the up & down arrows to select Vol-
ume.
2. Press + & - buttons to select the desired volume level.
3. Press Options to exit, or wait 10–15 seconds for the options
mode to automatically time out.

Threshold

The MX Sport can be used in silent search (no sound until a
target is detected), or with a Threshold (steady continuous back-
ground hum) with virtually no difference in maximum detection
depths. However, searching with a continuous threshold has the
advantage of providing more information regarding what the de-
tector is seeing. The threshold fading to silence indicates either
a rejected target, or a ground anomaly. By focusing more closely
around that spot, often a good target can be found near trash.
To Adjust Threshold:
During searching simply press up and down arrows next to the
Options button to adjust threshold.

Optionally while in the menu:
1. Press Options and use the up & down arrows to select
Threshold.
2. Press + & - buttons to adjust threshold. Threshold level
should be as quiet as possible while still hearing a hum.
3. Press Options to exit, or wait 10–15 seconds for the Options
mode to automatically time out.
Tone Identification or Tone ID
The pitch or audio frequency produced by each target's display
identification range can be highlighted with differently pitched
sounds, called Tone Identification or Tone ID.
A specific audio pitch reference for each range provides quick au-
dio ID based on the pitch of the beep it produces during search-
ing- without looking at the display.
When Tone Identification is in single tone, all accepted metal
types produce the same audio pitch during searching. If the
Discrimination is set to reject a specific target range, that range
may not produce a beep of any pitch. Rejected targets often do
not produce any tone (silence).
To Adjust Tone Identification:
1. Press Options and use up & down arrows to select Tone ID.
2. Press + & - to select the type of Tone Identification desired.
3. Press Options to exit or wait 10–15 seconds for the options
mode to automatically time out.
Tone ID Settings
