Through the increase of frequency the depth performance also rises. However, in case of difficult soil conditions an increase in disturbances can occur, which can be reduced by a renewed reset and a reduction in the frequency.

    4.3 Precise location of metal objects GOLD ID-XL works with the pulse induction searching system and detects without having to move the searchcoil. While approaching an object with the searchcoil you will notice an increase of sound frequency. As soon as the searchcoil is positioned exactly over the object, the highest tone is reached and the indicated conductivity value corresponds with to the assumed kind of metal.
