Menu/Select; Accept/Reject; Pinpoint - Minelab Quattro MP User Manual

The ALL METAL mode's audio response also uses the object's ferrous characteristics for
interpreting the signal tones like in the RELIC Mode.
Use: This is the best mode to use when a maximum target recovery rate is important, like in some
competition hunts or when the user is looking for any and all metals.

Accept/Reject

5.
The ACCEPT/REJECT button (6) allows the operator to adjust the discrimination pattern to accept
or reject any of 51 segments shown on the detect screen. This allows you to build a custom
discrimination pattern that will ignore signals from unwanted targets and still accept signals from
desirable targets.

Pinpoint

6.
The PINPOINT button (7) is used to accurately locate the true position of the target prior to digging.
the Main screen will also fill out on the screen as the coil passes directly over the target.
There is not a lot of difference between the signal produced by shallow targets and those by
deeper targets, so it is important to note the approximate depth from the depth indicator, before
switching to PINPOINT. To accurately determine where to dig, mark a line in the ground where the
center of your coil is when the beep occurs and the majority of the bars are shaded. Pass over the
target a few times for accuracy.
Repeat this process at 90 degrees to create a cross-hair point on the ground.
The PINPOINT button must be pressed again to return to normal detect mode.
Points to remember:
• When in PINPOINT the Quattro MP does not discriminate between metal targets.
• Always press the PINPOINT button again when returning to search (do not search in PINPOINT mode)
• After pinpointing, and laying the detector down to dig the target, it is common for the detector to give an
intermittent signal. Switching out of pinpoint when digging, then returning to PINPOINT again if the location
of the target needs to be confirmed can overcome this.
• Do not press the PINPOINT button when directly over a target as this may cause a constant signal.
7. Noise Cancel
7.
NOISE CANCEL is the automatic function on the Quattro MP where the most stable search
channel is found for the environment you are searching in. It is important to always engage the
NOISE CANCEL prior to making changes to other menu selections.

When the PINPOINT button is pressed, the target icons on the
detect screen will be replaced by a locator bar graph as shown left:
In PINPOINT mode, your detector will produce a clear 'beep' as the
search coil passes directly over the target. The locator bar graph in
