Main Menu > Options > RECOVERY
This menu allows you to modify the way the discrimination process
works. Recovery settings affect both the detector's audio and
display response to target characteristics.
Fast
By selecting this setting, the detector will react faster to the signals
received, but the discrimination may be slightly less accurate. Use
Fast in areas littered with objects, where a desired target could be
hiding next to unwanted objects.
Deep
This setting affects only weak target signals and enhances them to
allow identification of deep targets. This setting should be selected
in relatively uncluttered areas where deep targets are anticipated.
Strong signals are unaffected.
SETTINGS MENU
The Settings menu provides the advanced user the opportunity to save all user
preferred settings as an alternative to preprogrammed Explorer settings.

Main Menu > Options > SETTINGS
Once you have selected and modified the detector's operational
settings (as detailed in Chapters 5 and 6) it is possible to save
them to the Explorer's memory for future detecting sessions.
Figure 6.21 Settings menu
Advanced mode allows you to save and load two different settings
(in addition to the factory presets). It may be that two people with
different preferences use the detector (e.g. different volume, tone,
sensitivity settings) or perhaps you divide your time between a
couple of very different detecting environments (e.g. the beach and
a highly-mineralized battlefield). The Explorer's Settings feature
makes it easy to save rather than going through the whole fine-
tuning process again.
Saving and loading a setting
For example, to save your current detector settings, press the shift
button next to USER A or USER B on the right side of the screen. A
screen prompt will appear asking if you want to save current
settings in the memory. Select YES.
You can now proceed to detect with this setting knowing it has been
saved for future use in similar conditions. On the next occasion you
wish to use these preferred settings you can load by choosing
SETTINGS from the Options menu and pressing the shift button next
to the USER A or USER B option on the left side of the screen.
