THE MINELAB EXPLORER II 37 QUICKSTART 5 5 Quickstart However experienced you are at using a metal detector, it is important that you read this chapter to understand how to use the Explorer II in Quickstart mode.
THE MINELAB EXPLORER II 38 QUICKSTART 5 www.minelab.com GETTING STARTED Introducing Quickstart Figure 5.1 When you first turn on the Explorer II, the Quickstart Smartfind display will appear and you are able to begin detecting. The detector is prepared to respond to non-ferrous targets while filtering out ground signals.
THE MINELAB EXPLORER II 39 QUICKSTART 5 BEGINNER USE Trying out the detector Figure 5.2 Don ’ t try this at home! If you attempt to begin detecting while you are inside your home, you will quickly find that there are many metallic objects (such as nails or reinforcing in the floor) which will result in almost continuous detection.
THE MINELAB EXPLORER II 40 QUICKSTART 5 www.minelab.com easy reference QUICKSTART DISPLAY The Quickstart display visually represents everything from target details to the Explorer II’ s operating settings. Quickstart’ s Smartfind display (pictured below) and alternate Digital display share many common elements.
THE MINELAB EXPLORER II 41 QUICKSTART 5 QUICKST ART DISPLA Y Sensitivity level . The sensitivity bar and numbers indicate how responsive the detector is to a target in the presence of ground noise and/or electromagnetic interference. Numbers range between 1 and 32.
THE MINELAB EXPLORER II 42 QUICKSTART 5 www.minelab.com Figure 5.3 Smartfind display with preset Coins discrimination pattern Two-dimensional discrimination Figure 5.3 When an object is detected, Smartfind indicates what kind of object you have found with a target crosshair .
THE MINELAB EXPLORER II 43 QUICKSTART 5 • The horizontal dimension (or axis) rates the extent of the object ’ s resemblance to ferrous characteristics. • The object ’ s cross-referenced rating is represented by a ‘ target crosshair ’ inside the rectangular display area.
THE MINELAB EXPLORER II 44 QUICKSTART 5 www.minelab.com Introducing Discrim Discrim (an abbreviation of Discrimination) instructs the detector to accept some types of targets and reject others. It uses Smartfind's two-dimensional discrimination, allowing you to specify one or more target patterns for detection.
THE MINELAB EXPLORER II 45 QUICKSTART 5 THE IRON MASK THE IRON MASK Adjusting the Iron Mask Figure 5.5 Pressing the IRON MASK shortcut button on the control panel will display the Iron Mask adjustment screen. Preset Level The Explorer II's Iron Mask is set at a rating of -6.
THE MINELAB EXPLORER II 46 QUICKSTART 5 www.minelab.com THE IRON MASK Operating in Iron Mask Figure 5.6 Pressing the IRON MASK shortcut button again will display a Smartfind screen resembling Figure 5.6. This display shows that the detector is ready to operate in Iron Mask.
THE MINELAB EXPLORER II 47 QUICKSTART 5 Digital display Figure 5.7, 5.8 When the Smartfind screen is displayed, pressing the DETECT shortcut button on the control panel switches to the Explorer II ’ s alternative Digital display . The display rates both the ferrous content and the conductivity of an object with numbers from 0-31.

THE MINELAB EXPLORER II 49 QUICKSTART 5 ADJUSTING SENSITIVITY Sensitivity control The sensitivity bar indicates how responsive the detector is to a target in the presence of ground noise and/or electromagnetic interference.
THE MINELAB EXPLORER II 50 QUICKSTART 5 www.minelab.com Threshold control The Explorer II usually emits a constant tone or threshold ‘ hum ’ in the absence of a target. The threshold setting controls the audible level of this sound during detecting.
THE MINELAB EXPLORER II 51 QUICKSTART 5 AUDIO RESPONSE Pitch of response Figure 5.13 Generally , a target that is highly conductive (e.g. a large silver coin) emits a high pitched signal. A low pitch is sounded for less conductive targets. Large targets or targets close to the ground surface emit a louder signal.
THE MINELAB EXPLORER II 52 QUICKSTART 5 www.minelab.com AUDIO MENU Introduction to the Audio menu Figure 5.14 Main Menu > AUDIO As mentioned earlier in the section on Audio Response, the Explorer II emits a target signal that varies in volume and pitch depending on the object it detects.
THE MINELAB EXPLORER II 53 QUICKSTART 5 Introducing Volume Figure 5.15 Main Menu > Audio > VOLUME The VOLUME screen of the Audio menu displays two slider controls: MAX LIMIT and GAIN (Figure 5.15). NOTE To test sounds upon selection it is necessary to move the coil across the target.
THE MINELAB EXPLORER II 54 QUICKSTART 5 www.minelab.com AUDIO: ADJUSTING THE VOLUME Gain Figure 5.16, 5.17 Main Menu > Audio > Volume > GAIN (adjustment) V olume gain affects the way the detector amplifies target audio responses in respect to the strength of the original signal.
THE MINELAB EXPLORER II 55 QUICKSTART 5 AUDIO: ADJUSTING THE TONE Figure 5.18 T one menu AUDIO: ADJUSTING THE TONE Introducing Tone Figure 5.18 Main Menu > Audio > TONE T one is the frequency of sound emitted on target detection. It is important to experiment with tone settings and listen carefully to tone variations during your detecting.
THE MINELAB EXPLORER II 56 QUICKSTART 5 www.minelab.com AUDIO: ADJUSTING THE SOUNDS Figure 5.19 Sounds menu AUDIO: ADJUSTING THE SOUNDS Introducing Sounds Figure 5.19 Main Menu > Audio > SOUNDS The SOUNDS menu allows you to define how the pitch varies with target characteristics.
THE MINELAB EXPLORER II 57 QUICKSTART 5 AUDIO: ADJUSTING THE SOUNDS Ferrous Main Menu > Audio > Sounds > FERROUS Selecting FERROUS adjusts the tone according to the target ’ s ferrous content (the horizontal axis of the Smartfind screen or the first number in the Digital display).
THE MINELAB EXPLORER II 58 QUICKSTART 5 www.minelab.com T ake some time to become familiar with how the Explorer I I responds to various metal objects. This tutorial is designed for Smartfind ’ s Iron Mask and Discrimination functions. Repeat the procedure to familiarize yourself with both.
THE MINELAB EXPLORER II 59 QUICKSTART 5 PINPOINTING THE OBJECT Introducing Pinpoint Figure 5.20. See also Pinpoint overview in Chapter 4: Control Panel, page 34. During normal operation the Explorer II operates with discrimination settings like Iron Mask or targets chosen from the Select target list.
THE MINELAB EXPLORER II 60 QUICKSTART 5 www.minelab.com Figure 5.21 Pinpointing the object Using Pinpoint Figure 5.21 Once the Explorer II has found the approximate position of a target it is necessary to locate its exact position using Pinpoint.
