This is called an To get the best from your SD2200v2, it is important to know how different overload signal. A target producing this sound should not be interpreted as ground conditions affect the detecting process. -

Page 13 Operation Operating Instructions This section gives a detailed description of how to operate the SD2200v2 These instructions can be followed by operators who are familiar with the detector. The section ‘Detector sounds’ contains definitions of some terms workings and general terminology of detectors. However, Minelab with which the beginner should be acquainted. - Page 9 When set to Both, the detector uses the best channel for a particular target to generate the signal. It is for this reason that Minelab recommends the Important: While the detector is selecting the preferred frequency, the coil use of Both in almost all circumstances.

People little value and are an annoyance to detector operators. The SD2200v2 is who have used previous SD models must note that setting the Channel capable of rejecting a number of iron objects while still detecting switch does not affect the operation of the automatic ground balance.
- Page 11 Note: When used in Disc mode, deeper or small targets, whether ferrous or non-ferrous, will produce the normal target audio signal. When the SD2200v2 is operated in the Disc + ID mode, the same audio blanking will operate as it did in Disc for strong signals. However, there is an additional mode of iron discrimination which can operate with weaker signals.

Make sure that there are no objects buried in the soil. Take care when you dig because damaging a nugget can reduce its value. Minelab suggests you start digging about 100mm in front of the target to reduce the chance of damage. Pile the diggings carefully as it might be necessary to search them systematically later. -
