Recovery Speed; Recovery Speed And Adjacent Targets; Swing Rate; Adjust The Recovery Speed - Minelab MANTICORE Instruction Manual

Recovery Speed

The Recovery Speed setting alters how
quickly the detector responds from
detecting one target to detecting
another target�
By increasing the Recovery Speed, the detector is able
to better differentiate between multiple targets that are
close together� This assists in high‑trash areas with finding
smaller good targets amongst larger iron trash�
The Recovery Speed setting has a range from 0 to 8�
Recovery Speed adjustment is local; only the current
Search Mode is affected by changes to this setting�

ADJUST THE RECOVERY SPEED

1. Navigate to Recovery Speed:
Settings > Recovery Speed
2. Press / to adjust the Recovery Speed� Changes are
automatically saved�
3. Press ( Back) to return to the Detect Screen�
CHOOSING A RECOVERY SPEED
A higher target Recovery Speed may increase the
detector's ability to find difficult targets, however it also
reduces Target ID accuracy and detection depth�
Using a lower Recovery Speed may improve detection
depth in soils with low mineralisation and may reduce EMI
susceptibility�
Using a lower Recovery Speed in soils with high
mineralisation may reduce discrimination performance,
making difficult targets harder to detect�

SWING RATE

A good general swing rate is around 2‑to‑3 seconds from
right‑to‑left‑to‑right� A higher Recovery Speed generally
allows you to swing at a faster rate without missing many
targets�
A higher Recovery Speed at the same swing rate will
help to reject ground noise, however it will also decrease
detection depth� If you are experiencing high levels of
ground noise at the beach or when detecting underwater,
try increasing the Recovery Speed to reduce the noise�
A lower Recovery Speed at the same swing rate will
increase detection depth, however may mix more ground
noise with the target response�
Varying both Recovery Speed and swing rate can help
minimise ground noise�
