CONTROL FUNCTIONS
A faint tone indicates weak batteries and no tone
means that it’s time for a battery change.
4. VOLUME: This control switches the 1236-X2 on and
off and controls the volume of the audio response.
A setting of 10 provides maximum audio signal
volume.
5. FREQUENCY: This control changes the operating
frequency of the 1236-X2 to eliminate interference
from nearby detectors. Set it at 0 for normal
operation. To eliminate signal interference (usually
a pulsing or “motor boating” sound) simply increase
it (+) or lower it (-) slightly. Do not operate at a
higher or lower frequency level than necessary as
you may experience a slight loss of depth in highly
mineralized ground.
6. HEADPHONES: This jack accepts most stereo and
mono headphones with quarter inch plugs. Set your
headphone to stereo.
7. PINPOINT: When pushed and held, this button
switches the 1236-X2 into the No-Motion, All-Metal
Pinpoint mode. A located target responds with
increasing volume and pitch. Under certain
conditions, you may get interference from a nearby
detector in the Pinpoint mode but not in the Search
mode. In this case, release the PINPOINT button
and reset the FREQUENCY Control to another
noninterference position. Do not adjust the
FREQUENCY Control while the PINPOINT button is
pushed in.
