Condensed Operating Instructions - Fisher M-Scope 1236-X2 Operating Manual

CONDENSED OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Using the 1236-X2 is simple, but you'll have more fun and a better
chance of making that BIG find if you have a complete
understanding of what you're doing and why. That's why we
recommend that you read the entire manual first. But if you just
can't wait any longer or you've already used a Fisher "X"
detector, here's some quick instructions:
Set
SENSITIVITY
to 8
Set DISC
to 4
1. Set the controls as follows:
FREQUENCY = 0 (center frequency = 5.7 KHz)
SENSITIVITY = 8
DISC = 4
SILENCER = ON
VOLUME = 5
2. Turn the unit on by turning the VOLUME Control
to 5.
3. Set the DISC Control to 4. As soon as you set
the DISC control, your 1236-X2 is automatically
tuned and ground adjusted for searching.
4. The Search mode (which you're in) is a VLF-
motion discrimination mode. It will ignore ground
minerals and junk, but you'll have to keep the
search coil moving at least slightly to detect a
target.
5. With practice you should be able to pinpoint in
the Search mode.
