SPECIFICATIONS
NOTES
1. Subject to improvement or modification without
notice.
2. In Search Mode, the 1236-X2 operates under two
modes of discrimination. With the SILENCER off, it
operates in a classic 2nd derivative discrimination
mode that allows all pops, clicks and partial target
responses to be heard for maximum target information.
With the SILENCER on, the 1236-X2 operates in 3rd
derivative SILENCER mode. This is especially useful for
eliminating noise in extremely trashy areas.
3. The Search Mode has a 416 Hz target response. The
Pinpoint Mode has a Voltage Controlled Oscillator
(VCO) target response that responds to the precise
location of a target with increasing volume and
pitch.
4. A slight audio threshold is provided in Search Mode
when the SENSITIVITY control is set to its maximum
setting. This aids in detecting the faintest of target
signals.
5. Approximate.
6. Electro-Static-Insulated to eliminate certain types
of false signals.
7. The transmitter frequency is centered nominally at
5.7 KHz and is user adjustable from 5KHz to 5.9 KHz to
eliminate interference from nearby detectors.
ABOUT YOUR DETECTOR
Your 1236-X2 was designed to do one thing well, provide all
the quality tools necessary to help you find good, deep targets
in trashy or mineralized soil with minimum hassle. The 1236-X2
does this by providing you a wealth of powerfully, well designed
instrument controls and features that give you maximum flexibility
of adjustment to accommodate your unique style of detecting.
These are the controls on your 1236-X2 .
Sensitivity Control: Along with an increase in sensitivity to
find those deeply buried targets, we’ve provided a versatile
SENSITIVITY control to adjust the sensitivity when searching
near large metallic objects or extremely trashy areas. At the
maximum SENSITIVITY setting a slight amount of audio threshold
is provided so the faintest of target signals can be heard.
Dual Mode Discrimination: The 1236-X2 provides two powerful
modes of discrimination for you to choose as you hunt in
different environments. In both discrimination modes you can
adjust the DISC control to accept certain types of metallic
targets while simultaneously rejecting ground minerals, trash,
and other less conductive metallic targets. With the SILENCER
switch “off” the 1236-X2 operates in a classic 2nd derivative
discrimination mode that allows all pops, clicks, and partial
target responses to be heard for maximum target information.
With the SILENCER switch “on” the 1236-X2 operates in a newly
developed 3rd derivative SILENCER mode, eliminating all
pops, clicks, and partial target responses for a quieter mode
of operation. This mode of discrimination is especially useful for
eliminating excessive pops and clicks heard when searching in
extremely trashy areas.
