CONTROL PANEL
not be used unless you have already tried switching
to a higher mineralization setting. In the extreme
counterclockwise position, the SENS control doubles
as a battery tester. A loud tone indicates good
batteries, and a faint tone tells you it's time to
change the batteries.
2. MODE: This is a three-position toggle switch that can
be set to IRON DISC, NORMAL or AUDIO BOOST.
(See the next section, "Mode and Mineralization
Switches," for details.)
3. MINERALIZATION: This three-position toggle switch
has settings for varying levels of ground
mineralization: HIGH, NORMAL and LOW. (See next
section, "Mode and Mineralization Switches," for
details.)
4. HEADPHONES: This jack accepts most stereo and
mono headphones with 1/4-inch plugs. When using
headphones with a stereo/mono switch, put the
stereo/mono switch in the stereo position. Although
your Gold Bug-2 is equipped with a dust and
moisture resistant speaker, we recommend that you
always wear headphones while hunting to
maximize the number of targets you hear.
Furthermore, we recommend our Fisher Phones,
which enhance faint-target response by blocking
out unwanted external noises, such as wind and
vehicle sounds. To plug in your headphones, unplug
the detachable seal and plug in your headphone
jack. When not using headphones, be sure to keep
the seal plugged into the HEADPHONES jack to keep
dust and moisture out of the control housing.
5. VOLUME: This knob turns the power on and adjusts
the signal-response volume. If you're wearing
headphones with independent volume controls,
set your Gold Bug-2 VOLUME control to 10 and
decrease the volume of your earphone controls
to a comfortable level. This will ensure the hottest-
possible signal from your Gold Bug-2.
