Road Dog Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 I have noticed that the pinpoint volume increases from what your volume is set at. Does anybody know if you can turn the pinpoint volume down or have it match what your volume is set at? It seems like minelab has made it max volume for pinpoint. It’s way too loud for my ears. Thanks for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Herschbach Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 Hmmmm... mine seems fine at whatever volume level I am at. There is no adjustment for the 600 other than overall volume. The 800 allows you to change the pitch which although it is not volume a lower pitch will usually sound quieter. Owners Manual Page 42: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InTrouble Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 If all else fails it may be one of those instances where a factory reset may be the answer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Road Dog Posted March 5, 2018 Author Share Posted March 5, 2018 Steve, I was going to try that So it didn’t blow my eardrums up. But I shouldn’t have to what I have read the volume should be the same but it’s not. I do have the 800. But I was playing around with it again and it still seems like it’s at Max volume on pinpoint only and not on my regular volume. Thanks for the input. I have tried the factory reset with no change also. Wondering if anybody else is having that same issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Volume settings is 20 and using stock wireless headphones. I also just tried using no headphones with the same results. I switch over to pinpoint and it’s like it’s on Max volume.

Cabin Fever Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 It’s VCO pinpoint.. Does it get more quiet as you raise the coil further from a coin? If not something is clearly wrong.. Bryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunk Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Road Dog, I came across this small paragraph on page 17 when reading through the manual, and it may be what you’re looking for: So if you haven’t already, try turning down the detector volume and see if that has any effect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lunk, Thanks for that I was out with it yesterday all day and played around and turned the volume down and it helped a little bit. Still to loud for me but I’m just dealing with it. No One around me that I know of has one so I can’t check their’s to see if it does the same thing. I just wish it was like the 7000 you could control it.

IdahoPeg Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Road Dog, my 600 does the same thing. I was practicing in a nearby park, no headphones on, and every time I used pinpoint I attracted unwanted attention, "what's that?whatcha looking for?find any Treasure?" lol! I just got some wireless headphones from amazon last night, and hope it doesn't bust my eardrums! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
