Prizm™ 6T Controls/Features
1. Press ON/OFF (tap) to turn the 6T ON/OFF. Hold for a few seconds
to turn Backlight ON/OFF. Backlight ON indicated by a light bulb icon
on center of display. Good batteries produce HIGH PITCH BEEP for a
few seconds upon turn on A LOW PITCHED BEEP upon turn on
indicates low batteries. Low, with a battery icon on center of display,
indicates low batteries during searching.
2. SENS (sensitivity) adjusts the responsiveness to metals, ground,
and external electrical interference. The Sensitivity level is continuously
shown on the right-side of the display. The taller the bars, the higher
the selected sensitivity setting. Use the SENS up Arrow button to
increase, down Arrow to decrease SENS. Use the highest level that
behaves predictably. Use lower levels for areas where the 6T behaves
unpredictably or is unstable (false signals without the presents of
metal). Areas of high power electrical lines or extremely mineralized
soil conditions will usually require lower SENS levels. Areas of little
electrical activity, and dry beach sand, usually allow higher SENS
settings. Standard automatic setting works well for most areas. Few
areas will allow reasonable predictable performance at maximum
SENS. A consistent overload signal, low pitch beep and OL on display,
may indicate a lower sens setting is needed to deal with high-mineral
ground.
3. P/P (when pressed and held) activates the pinpoint mode for better
target locating. P/P (when tapping) turns ON/OFF the “All Metal”
search mode, ON indicated on the center of the display. All Metal mode
can be used for searching when the desire is to hear/locate iron and
steel, as well as all other types of metals. Display indicates possible
target ID and depth in both standard DISC and ALL Metal modes.
When P/P is pressed and held, all metal types respond with a beep that
is basically the same. While holding P/P, or while searching in the All
Metal mode, pressing and releasing Tone ID turns ON/OFF VCO
