Hi!
I need an opinion.

How to use the "new" third control knob on Dual Field. That is called "Delay". My PI PRO did not have it!!

What is it for? I do not touch it so far.
Thank you in anticipation!
 
It's a good thing you didn't touch it.Turn it in any direction and it'll detonate :rofl:
Sorry I couldn't pass that one up.
I use the PI PRO and I can't help you on that one...
 
The knob you are refuring to is the Pulse Timing Delay

As the Pulse Timing Control is moved clockwise, it increases the delay of the sample pulses that detect targets, and reduces the ground noise from black sand.
However, if the control is increased too far clockwise it will reduce the detectors's sensitivity for small jewelry and coins you should use the lowest control setting required to minimize ground noise.

Under most circumstances, you should dig every signal. However when you find yourself searching an area that is littered with bits of aluminum foil you can advance the Pulse Timing Control to ignore the foil and still detect shallow US nickels. At this control setting you will lose deeper nickels and some gold jewelry and the depth for other coins will be reduced by about ten percent.

This info is taken from the operators Manual.
 
I read Manual of course. But who in his right mind will be willing to pass gold by using this third knob?! That is why I feel confused trying to understand its value and necessity.
 
I hear the dual is a solid preformer and it pinpoints easy.

Normally, you want to run the pulse delay as short as possible for best sensitivity to gold. But there are times when you might need to bump it up a little. One is surf hunting where incoming waves can create surging audio responses. You can turn the delay up slightly and minimize this problem.
