Similarly, HIGH is the preferred setting when detecting in heavily mineralized or variable ground.
HIGH setting can be used with a slightly faster sweep speed, so is suitable for use during
competition hunts, or in areas where speed of ground coverage is important.
The performance characteristics of the two modes is summarized below:
Setting
LOW
Trash
Density
HIGH
In HIGH setting the Quattro MP signal response works faster to pick out good targets in between
all the trash but requires a wider discrimination pattern. This is easily demonstrated by attempting
to use the ACCEPT/REJECT function in HIGH setting:
• Sweep a junk object that you would like to eliminate over the coil, and attempt to reject it by
pressing ACCEPT/REJECT.
• Now pass the target over the coil again and repeat the process
• The Quattro MP will continue to find different materials in the target and it will show different ID's.
• It may require you to reject a number of ID numbers before a specific target is fully rejected.
For this reason, accurate discrimination is best when operating in LOW setting.
TIP: When detecting do not wear steel-toed boots or shoes with metal eyelets. These can send
conflicting signals to your detector.
