Shampton82 Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Hello everyone, I have an Eq 600 and while detecting today in Park 2 mode I noticed that I was not getting an iron “grunt “ with negative VDI values. I tested this at home and got the same results using a ring they came in at 8 and some nails that gave -2ish. The ring and the nails had the same tone (the 0-10 region). Switching to all other modes, the nails had the iron “grunt”. I’m on Ver 3 software and was using 5 tones for all modes. Is this normal? Thanks for any input!

Chase Goldman Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 You shouldn't normally hear an iron grunt in any mode unless you have no discrimination set using the horseshoe button (or if you changed the discrimination point to something less than zero. The default for park 2 has the ferrous disc breakpoint set at 0. Also, did you intentionally shift to 5 tones for Park 2? The default is 50. In the process of doing that, did you inadvertently adjust the iron discrimination breakpoint lower than zero for Park 2 (which means the tone for bin 2 would sound off for some normally ferrous targets) or inadvertently lower the tone volume for bin 1 (ferrous)?

Mark Gillespie Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 If you can't figure it out do a factory reset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shampton82 Posted April 4, 2021 Author Share Posted April 4, 2021 Thanks for the reply’s! This was using the horseshoe mode. I’ll go check those other settings and let you know. I’ll also try the factory reset if I can’t figure it out and see if that fixes it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shampton82 Posted April 4, 2021 Author Share Posted April 4, 2021 Okay I had jacked up up my ferrous disk break point. Did a reset and all is good. Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
