Additional Features - Fisher M-Scope COIN STRIKE Operating Manual

ADDITIONAL FEATURES

AUTOMATIC LOW BATTERY WARNING: The Coin Strike will let
you know when a low battery condition will begin to effect
performance — the batteries must be changed at this time. When
the batteries get too weak, the LCD will show a "LOW BATTERY"
warning on the display. In addition, the audio system will produce
a wavering tone to alert you to the low battery condition.
AUTOMATIC SIGNAL OVERLOAD WARNING: The Coin Strike will alert
you to the presence of a large metal object in close proximity to
the search coil by sounding off an audio bell tone. This lets you
know that the object is too close to the coil for the 4-tone audio
or LCD systems to accurate identify the object.
"F.A.C.T. ": Fisher's new adaptive coil technology allows the
©
detector electronics to recognize whether the search coil is
properly installed on the detector. The Coin Strike will not turn
ON without the search coil connector properly installed to the
control housing.
CONSTANT CONTROL READOUT: Unlike many digital detectors, the
Coin Strike LCD shows you the control settings at all times while
in the search mode. The control icons are similar to the knobs
of older detectors, constantly showing where the settings are at
one easy glance. In addition, even more accurate information
regarding the control settings can be obtained by entering the
MENU mode and observing the two-digit number accompanying
each control, showing improved resolution of each control.
LCD BACKLIGHT: The press of a button activates a very efficient
display backlight for use in dark situations.
NUMERIC I.D. AVERAGING FUNCTION: This is activated (A1) or
deactivated (A0) when the ALL/METAL/DISC button is pushed
and held. When ON, the numeric I.D. will be based on cumulative
average from sweep to sweep. When OFF, the numeric I.D. will
be based on immediate sweep results. To determineif this function
is onor off, push and hold the ALL METAL/DISC button until either
A! (activated) or A0 (deactivated) is displayed. If you continue
holding down the button, the display will flash twice, then switch
modes.
