Search Mode Motion Circuitry: In this mode of operation the
motion circuitry in the 1236-X2 responds with a 416 Hz tone as
the search coil is moved over a target. This makes the 1236-X2
less sensitive to soil mineralization and false target responses
associated with the temperature drift and aging of electronic
components.
No-Motion Pinpoint Mode With VCO Audio: At the push of a
button, the all-metal no-motion pinpoint mode kicks in with
VCO (Voltage Controlled Oscillator) audio response for precise
target locating. A located target responds with increasing
volume and pitch. The tone gets louder and higher, so there’s
virtually no doubt when you’re directly over a target.
VOLUME Control: For an extra measure of versatility, we’ve
included a VOLUME control so you can set the audio level to
suit your needs. You’ll no longer have to buy a special headset
with extra controls to adjust the audio level.
FREQUENCY Control: You can vary the transmit frequency of
your 1236-X2 from 5.5 KHz to 5.9 KHz. This control allows you to
eliminate electrical interference from nearby metal detectors. A
must for competition hunting.
User Setpoints And Factory Presets: The SENSITIVITY, VOLUME,
FREQUENCY, and DISC controls all have recommended user
setpoints that are indicated by a red-colored number on each
control’s number dial. These setpoints provide a useful starting
point for the new user. In addition, we’ve included a convenient
factory preset IRON discrimination setting. When the DISC
control is fully rotated counterclockwise to the IRON position,
the 1236-X2 is set to reject common iron trash and nails.
