A question about Tones Setting

Buried Crap NJ

New member
I am working in M6 P1 and which is a copied beach program so I can play around with it. I was in 50 tones and when I tried to change pitch I only could do horizontial tones. Then I change to 4 tones CO instead and was only able to change vertical 4 sections. Question 1 Is this corrrect that you can only do vertical or horizontal with pitch not both at the same time. I was able to size the boxes but wasn't sure how I did it, I think you have to save each change them move to the next, That's question 2! My third question has to do with accept/reject after you move about the screen do you hit the reject button to blank the section out" What if it's a big area just make the Pixels bigger and go for it. Is that the fastes way to blank out big aera's?
Thanks for any help that can be shared. This is my first computer based detector and I am at the bottom of the curve!

I think that is correct. It is either ferous tone or conductive tone options. There isn't any that would say, change pitch on a diagonal line.
 
If you had 50 tones, you were obviously using Multiple Tone Conductive profile. In either Multiple Tone Conductive or Multiple Tone Ferrous (35), you can only adjust the lowest and highest pitch values. The tones representing the "bins" in between the lowest and the highest will be proportionally spaced. When you changed to 4 Tone Conductive, you are only listening for Conductive tones. So the only tones you can adjust would be those of the four conductive "bins", represented by the four vertical "sections" that you mentioned. If you wanted to do "both" vertical and horizontal, you would need to chose a Tone ID profile that included both conductive and ferrous tones. The profile that provides that is Combined. It offers a ferrous bin and four conductive bins.

To change the size of the "box" that you use to edit the discrimination screen is found in the Edit Frame Menu. To change the Edit Frame size, press and hold the Identify control (Accept/Reject) button, which takes you to the Identify Quick Menu. The options are (from smallest to largest) 1 X 1, 2 X 2, 3 X3 (which is defaut) and 5 X 5. Use the arrow down button to highlight your choice and press Select. (page 9 & 10 in manual) Using the 5 X 5 frame will edit the largest areas with one click.

If you want to clear the screen or fill the screen entirely, there is the option to Accept All or Reject All, which is found on page 35 of the manual.

If you are trying to build a new program, don't overwrite or remove the old one. You can save both.

After you have edited or built a new program on the XChange2, save it under a new name.

If you are modifying one from your detector, open the program you are using to build from, save it as new, then go back into the new one and make the modifications. It will show up as M6 or M7 or M8 or whatever hasn't been used yet. If you want to give it a name, you'll need to use the XChange2 method. HH Randy
 
Thanks digger I am on the right track now. Playing with this thing is the only way to see you won't like or will like.
