Volume Control

This control is used to adjust a target’s signal volume.

As you turn this control in a clockwise direction, the

volume of target signals will increase.

At the most clockwise position, the volume is set at the

“maximum”, i.e. loudest, position.

Sensitivity Control

The Sensitivity control allows you to adjust the level of

sensitivity to suit the ground conditions in which you are

detecting. It is often thought of in terms of a depth control

and it is, to a point, but it also makes the unit more or less

sensitive to interference caused by such things as ground

chemistry “mineralization”, or electrical fields.

At the most anti-clockwise position this control “clicks” into the “Auto”

position. In this setting the Excalibur will automatically select its optimum

level of sensitivity to suit the conditions being worked.

When detecting at the beach, set the Sensitivity to the “Auto” position when on

wet sand, or concentrated black sand, or in the water.

Turning the control clockwise will “click” the Excalibur out of the “Auto”

setting into manual sensitivity. As you continue to turn this control in a

clockwise direction the level of sensitivity will reduce. At the most clockwise

position, the Excalibur is at “minimum” sensitivity.

When not in the “Auto” position, the Sensitivity control should be set to the

maximum manual position without registering interference from ground

minerals or electrical interference. If ground minerals or electrical interference

become too high, the Excalibur will produce a number of erratic signals. If this

occurs, simply turn the Sensitivity control in a clockwise direction until these

erratic signals disappear.
