Magic's Programs

Ok, I did a search for these programs and wasn't able to find them...anyone direct where these programs may be?
 
It's basically a Hi Pro with a few changes.

V3i_ Magics Pro

Let me start by saying that this program is not for everyone. It will find the deepest targets and also is very informative as to what is in the ground around everything.

Rx gain 10 to start and adjust from there
Tx boost off
Disc. 88-93
All metal 70

DISCRIMINATION
Bottle cap reject off
Hot rock off
Reject -95 to -89
Accept -88 to +94
Reject +95
(if your ground phases into the -80s you will want to reject down into the -80 range.)

TONES
I set these tones to my liking and you may want to put in your own. I use higher tones for good targets that I look for. (Example...51 to 54 is Indian penny range so it gets a higher tone) I use the 5 tone on the iron range to tell where the iron is and it sounds like a ticking sound. Some people like this while others don't. I like to know whats in the ground. The more info the better for me!)

-95 to -6 5
-5 to -1 50
0 to +9 150
+10 to +12 165
+13 to +17 175
+18 to +22 225
+23 to +29 175
+30 to +39 190
+40 to +49 200
+50 210
+51 to +54 225
+55 to +59 210
+60 to +67 220
+68 to +89 250
+90 to +94 255

I use three frequency in Best data
I use lock trac with a offset of +1 and ground balance every 20 minutes or so
(Watch the arrows while ground balancing and wait until they start to switch back and forth left to right before releasing.)

5 band filter. (Adjust for your ground)
Recovery speed. 50 to 100 range
( I usually hunt at 65 until I know the area, If its trashy I go to 50, if moderate I hunt at 60 to 75, and for no trash and deep I go to 80 to 100. On some rare occasions I have hunt at 120 with good results in a almost no target type field.)

I use intensity base threshold of 70
Fade rate at 4
(These are just personal preference and do not effect depth)

If you have any question about this program, please feel free to send me a PM.
This program is what I use 90% of the time and I have hit coins in the 12-14 inch range in my ground.

Note.. If hitting on a really deep target, it may be necessary to turn up your all metal to 80 to 90 in order to pinpoint on the target.

Other points of interest....
When I get that good quick hit like silver and its deep, if you move to a 45 degree angle and go around the object and you get alot of ticking noise (iron range) it is a nail almost every time. Unless its a good target in with a nail..
That is up to you to decide.

Remember the best discrimination is your digger!
 
Thank You, very much for your help. I will let you know how it works for me as soon as my unit gets back from being upgraded.

I have been using this program for the past two weeks and I am having a issue with the depth readings . They seem to be off by 2 to 3 in between the search mode and pinpoint mode. What could I adjust to even them out?
 
Are you set to the correct coil setting? Programs don't affect depth readings.
 
As I said nothing in the program will affect the depth reading. Try another program, the depth should read the same.
 
On the fly depth readings are inherently inaccurate. They are there to give you a general idea, but they will not be exact - too many factors involved. One of which is how fast you swing your coil - more signal comes in the slower you swing - up to a point. Go slow enough and the filters will start filtering out your target signal. That's one - there are other factors as well that affect the reading. So, in search it's a bit of a guesstimate. Pinpoint will give you better accuracy for coin sized targets.
 
Thanks Anne, I thought he was saying the readings were off since using Magic's program.
 
Thank you for clearing things up. The I update seems to be a little more sensitive then the v3, still trying to figure out if I have a connection problem that would be affecting my detecting experience. I have notice the connection pins at the control box are a little lose wondering if that could be my issue.?
