Desperado Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Sometimes the pinpoint audio on my 800 is very low. It will recover after pinpoint button is pushed again. Is this normal? Also is there a trick to pairing earbuds to the unit. Thanx. Danny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if the updates helped with that, as I kept mine original with no updates. I did find a trick to help on the audio. It works on my unit and some others as well. See if it works on yours as well. When you press the pinpoint button do not move the detector while you press the button. Keep the machine still for a second while and after pressing the button. Usually it comes in loud if I do it that way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff McClendon Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Pinpointing using the pinpoint function of the Nox 600 and 800 is an adventure. It took awhile for me to trust it but now it just takes seconds. Yeah, occasionally I get either really soft audio or really loud audio responses that reset to normal if I leave and come back to pinpoint. It is that sensitive. Read the manual a lot. There is some good info about pinpointing. What kind of earbuds are you trying to pair? If they are not ATPX low latency Bluetooth 4 or 5 they may not work. My favorite Bluetooth earbuds are the Aukey B80s. I think they are on sale on Amazon for $25 or so right now. Excellent sound quality.

Steve Herschbach Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 The weird part about the intermittent low pinpoint thing is trying to replicate it reliably. I can hear what’s going on either way so I just ignore it. No trick to pairing, just follow the instructions. If you can pair the Minelab headphones and something else refutes to pair, them it’s probably a hardware mismatch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desperado Posted July 18, 2020 Author Share Posted July 18, 2020 Sounds like several people have the issue. I’ll try what I used to with the At-pro. Make sure I turn on the pinpoint away from the target. thanx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desperado Posted July 18, 2020 Author Share Posted July 18, 2020 I just paired my Raycon E55 earbuds to my 800. They seem to be ok. I’ll try them in the field tomorrow and see if they will hold. I’ll let everyone know how it goes. thanx for the info everyone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good thought! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to throw my two pesos in again. Guys on land, got pin-pointers. Us beach guy's got BIG SCOOPS. WHY, is anyone going to "pinpoint" to recover a target???? It is the biggest failure in any detector I have ever owned. Sorry, I just see it as a waste of time and I already have two more targets out of the sand/ground while you were dicking around with "pinpoint" Be kind to others, it's hot and stressful right now!!!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
