What are you having trouble with or don't understand? :shrug:It has been pretty hot here and I have some extra time. I see several V3i forums have little traffic right now. Happy detecting.:thumbup::usaflag:
 
Here's one for you Rob, just to start the ball rolling....Re Stereo Mixed Mode (all metal)..

When switching from Audio Disc to Stereo MM, in the past I have left my sens settings as is say RX11 AM65 Disc 90...Now I believe (correct me if I'am wrong) that the Disc setting of 90 is invalid when in any AM audio mode...
Therefore only the RX & AM settings would be used to control stability & depth....Today I ran RX12 AM90 Disc I left at 90...Hope I'am doing right by increasing AM when in all metal ? The V3i ran real smooth at this AM setting..

It's very hot here at the mo just checked the temp as I type it's 29c indoors, so I think I'll have a nice cool beer...:beers:

[attachment 295843 ScreenHunter_196Jul.2315.15.jpg]

The signal from the coil is increased by the RX Gain so RX gain affects both all metal and Disc. In all metal mode we only use the top channel in the diagram. In the disc mode we only use the bottom channel in the diagram. In Mixed mode and stereo mixed mode but channels are being used.

When switching from Audio Disc to Stereo MM, in the past I have left my sens settings as is say RX11 AM65 Disc 90...Now I believe (correct me if I'am wrong) that the Disc setting of 90 is invalid when in any AM audio mode...If I understand you, you are wrong. The 90 disc setting is adjusting the sensitivity of what you hear in one ear. It has no affect to the all metal channel you hear in the other ear. The only time Disc sensitivity would have no affect would be in the All Metal mode.

Therefore only the RX & AM settings would be used to control stability & depth.... NO, you need to use all 3 settings. Again RX affects both channels, all metal gain only the all metal channel, and disc affects the disc channel.Today I ran RX12 AM90 Disc I left at 90...Hope I'am doing right by increasing AM when in all metal ? The V3i ran real smooth at this AM setting..

This is important, The AM channel most be adjusted to see deeper then the Disc channel. Use a target and adjust the all metal to see the target at more depth than the disc. Once you get the 2 channels set then use RX to adjust the detector for more or less depth.If you are not clear I'll try to explain differently.

Rob tell me about Intensity vs consistency. I set mine on Consistency and selected a value of 10. Tearing up the coins but not real sure what I did?


By the way it is a 100 here and the ground is so hard I am digging with a Miners Pick.
 
Some say i'm beyond help, :) But Thank you for all you do to help us on this forum. :thumbup:

When you look at your Spectragraph you see bars for VDI. Some are short and others are higher.

Consistency = how many of the same phase it sees (the bar grows based on the amount of same phase readings there are.) The more hits on one VDI number the higher that bar will grow. You set yours to 10 so 10 hits of the same VDI gives you a full height bar. You also can set the fade rate to have the bars fade away faster or slower.

Intensity = the bar grows based on how strong the target signal is. The stronger the signal the taller the bar.


So, if you are in an area where ground won't affect your target's phases, then consistency should work well because you will get more of the same VDI reading for good targets. But, if ground is affecting your phase readings on your targets, then intensity will be much easier to use to spot your target. The better the ground the better consistency works. George, in Florida's sweet soil, does well with consistency. In consistency for me the bars don't jump as much, the graph is more quiet.

Hey Rob!
Have V3I and have a lot of chatter when searching with the main coil. Sounds like interference. When I get on a target it picks it out okay, but can I change settings somewhere to quite machine? Makes sounds even when I'm not in motion with the machine.
