Discovery TF900 2Box

[reifer]

Hi all,

I just got my TF900 and I have a few questions for anyone who has used one of these.

1. When switching to the battery check position, is the loud tone supposed to be sounding off along with the LED lighting up?

2. Is this thing supposed to be this touchy when in auto mode (slow or fast)? Seems that no matter how many times I go through the ground balancing routine, I still get what seems to be an unstable threshold tone.

3. Seems to be the same problem in cave detect mode. The sensitivity setting seems really touchy too.

None of the above is really covered in the very inadequate manual that comes with this thing. I got the manual for the TM808 which gives much more detail even to the point of explaining how to approximate the depth of the object detected. Is there a more indepth discussion of the use of the TF900 somewhere?

Thanks mucho!

So, does anyone own one of these bad boys and can answer my questions?

Your really on the wrong forum to get that question answered. This forum deals with PI detectors. The Discovery is not a PI unit. Please take it to another forum here at Finds. Try the metal detecting forum.

Interesting. After doing a search, all of the discussions about the TF900 and TM808 are located in the PI technology forum. The TF900 discussions are from Paul(CA). So where else do you suggest I ask?
