Does Changing The Coil Type Or Size On The Axiom Require A Reset?

[Rick Ray]

Hi, my name is Rick Ray from SW Oregon. I have had an Axiom since March. In talking to a Garret dealer, I was informed that there is a procedure that is required should one change the coil size or type. Did I miss something in the manual or is this new aftermarket advice? 

Thanks,

Rick

You only need to ensure the power is off when you exchange coils.  You may have to readjust sensitivity, ground balance and timings with the new coil but a factory reset is not required.

Your dealer should read the manual. If such a procedure was required it would be in the manual. That said, a reset is not required but is something I do personally on the Axiom and most any detector where I won’t lose a lot of settings in the process.

Never have the power on when switching coils on any PI detector!

Thanks for the replies.
