How to set up Garrett 350 for coins. How the Garrett Euro ACE metal detector works. ACE Euro Settings for Search

This detector also has the ability self-configuration search. You can customize the Euro Eyes recognition for any type of object you are looking for. The lower indicator scale consists of 12 segments. As you already understood, in each of their modes, those segments that are filled with black will be recognized. For example, in the "No Separation" mode, all segments are filled, which means that any metal object will be automatically recognized. Using the "discrim" and "elim" buttons, you can create a specific combination by adding or removing search objects in any of the modes. There are two ways to set the object recognition settings. You can use the “Identify” button by moving the cursor and selecting specific segments of the upper scale to enable or disable the identification of specific objects. Then you need to click the "exclude" button to enable or disable the selected segment, depending on your choice for a specific purpose. The second method is to bring the object close to the search coil and toggle its identification on or off. Make sure that the upper scale points to the desired object, then click the "Exclude" button to turn recognition on or off. Coin mode is ideal for finding coins in European conditions and soil types. Customization Mode allows you to create your own unique treasure hunting mode. Any settings that you make in the "individual" mode will be saved in the metal detector's memory even after turning it off and on again. It is important to remember that each time the detector is turned off and on again, the settings will return to their original settings in all modes except “individual”. The Euro Ace model has more segments dedicated to the definition of iron objects. This additional property leads to greater accuracy in identifying and finding iron objects, and iron objects can often drown out the signal from other more valuable objects. It is very important to choose the right mode and set its individual settings in order to exclude the finding of iron debris and at the same time not to weed out any valuable items. To demonstrate this, let's take a look at how this coin will be identified next to an iron nail. V this case Euroeis operates in a "no separation" mode, without separating iron objects from others. Separately, the coin will be identified in the ninth segment. The iron nail will be identified on the second segment. This iron containing object can be excluded from the definition list by clicking the “exclude” button next to the first two segments on the left. Since we disabled the first two segments of the iron objects, the nail will no longer be detected sound signal... But in doing so, the coin and the nail, combined together, will lead to a mixed result, and will be determined in the third segment. As a result, we manage to find a valuable item, due to the fact that the signal from the coin and the nail is determined higher on the scale than the nail separately. Let's talk about the button below the sensitivity label. This special property will allow you to search in any type of soil. Of course, you will want to set the sensitivity to maximum in order to detect objects as deeply as possible. Garrett engineers created Euro Ace for maximum sensitivity. But it may happen that due to some conditions the sounds will abruptly interrupt each other, as in this case. This can be avoided by lowering the sensitivity. 3 factors can cause your detector to behave this way. Strong electromagnetic interference, abnormal minerals in the soil, and large amounts of metal debris. If you encounter such a situation, make sure to drive the coil at the same height, if you raise the coil a couple of cm it should make a difference. Always start your search with the standard sensitivity settings that will work with most soil types. You can increase the sensitivity as much as the soil conditions allow. Sensitivity set above a stable rate can make it difficult for you to detect deep objects. Keep practicing the mode and sensitivity settings until you fully understand all the properties. If you suddenly want to return to the original, standard settings press and hold the power button (pwr) for about 5 seconds, or until you hear a double beep. Pay attention to the battery sign in the lower right corner of the screen. It is filled with 4 dark segments to indicate that the batteries are fully charged. Since all Garrett metal detectors are created so that they consume batteries very economically, 4 new finger batteries, should be enough to work from 20 to 40 hours. When only one or two segments are darkened you should be ready to replace the batteries with new ones. To get the batteries, you need to gently pull the cover and remove it, this will allow you to get 4 old batteries and throw them away. The label on the detector will help you determine the correct polarity required for installing new batteries. Make sure the batteries are inserted correctly and firmly. After you change the batteries, put the plastic panel back in and slide it up, with a sound like this. When putting the detector aside for more than one month, remove the batteries from the detector. Headphones are a very useful addition for any metal detector they come with. They are especially effective in noisy environments where you may simply not be able to hear the sounds emitted by the detector. The headphone jack is located on the rear right side of the panel. The headphones have a volume control.

Unfortunately, there are not always comrades who can sensibly and clearly explain how one metal detector differs from another, what is the main thing in the search, and in general, what determines whether a person with a swag or leaves the field empty. I think it makes no sense to talk about the characteristics of the device, since this information is available on the vast expanses of the Internet, but if you wish and have the opportunity, you can visit any store of treasure hunting topics, and personally read the manuals and instructions available there.

The truth is that the ACE EURO metal detector is as simple and reliable as a "tank". Further in the article I will consider that this simplicity is only apparent, but in principle, it is these moments that determine its popularity. By the way, please note that the DD coil is already installed on the EURO model, which makes this metal detector even more interesting.

ACE EURO advantages

So, if you read the instructions, it becomes clear that it is enough to turn on ACE, select desired mode and you can produce ... Yes, it is, it is this simplicity (no need to tune the device from the ground, no need to set the sensitivity right away, no need to understand the discriminator on your own) that determines the moment that this device is so popular.

Familiarization with the instructions: everything is simple and concise

On the other hand, in the process of searching, new opportunities and tricks open up. For example, given that ground tuning occurs automatically, it is advisable, when turning on the device, not to start waving it right away, but to proceed as follows:

1. Place the device with the coil on the ground
2. Switch on the device
3. Wait until it stops beeping (as a rule, two indicator sounds are heard)
4. Start searching or tinkering with settings

Of course, this may not be done, but from the point of view of logic, it is better to do just that: after all, the device needs to somehow be adjusted and determine the parameters of the soil. Perhaps I'm wrong, but it's not a pity to spend a couple of seconds on this manipulation.

ACE EURO search settings

We look further - this is a discrimination setting. I have already said that over the years the search engine starts searching for all metals, and this device allows you to do this. You can safely select the search mode on all metals and “enjoy life”. The thing is that at first it is better to check all signals (both colored and black), because this is the only way the learning process takes place.

On ACE, you can choose the dixrim mode that you need, you can even experiment: put coins in a pile, in a pile, put it on an edge. Experiments will show that sometimes even colored targets can ring in black - take note of this. By the way, even more advanced and well-known models of metal detectors are guilty of this. Only experience will help here!

If a metal detector is constantly beeping, there are many ways to eliminate this squeak. This sometimes happens when a person has installed a more serious coil. Try to lower the ACE sensitivity by 1-2 divisions, and life will improve.

The next point, which I have already written about several times, is the swing speed of the device. If the posting is too slow, the device may not "hook" the find, if it is too fast, something may be missed. The "golden mean" is important here. How to find it? Again, take different coins to the fields with you, bury them, and test.

But here the reliability will be slightly in doubt, since things that have lain in the ground for tens of years are oxidized, around them a "cloud" is formed, which also affects the detection. Therefore, do not rush to immediately dig out the find, move the coil over it with different speed, remember the result.

Someone says that there is a backlash at the junction of the ACE rods. Yes, it happens. But it is treated quite quickly - a couple of turns of electrical tape in this place on the assembled bar, and you can walk for at least days, everything will be fine.

When buying a metal detector, in particular the one we are talking about, make sure to immediately strengthen the armrest. Oddly enough, but on some devices of this series the armrests last for years, and on some devices they fail quickly enough, they just break. It is clear that in the event of a breakdown, everything can be repaired, make a homemade armrest, buy a new one, and so on. But it is better not to bring it to this.

Now about the batteries. ACE instruments are sensitive to batteries losing their charge. In this case, the device, roughly speaking, starts glitch... Keep this in mind, keep a spare set of batteries, or the search will turn into a nightmare. By the way, there are devices that "squeeze" the batteries to "0", while this does not affect the operation of the device in any way.

There is also a nuance - these are headphones. In fact, this point can be applied to all metal detectors, but with regard to the ACE series, especially. Firstly, you can catch a weak signal, and secondly, since these devices do not have a volume control, ACE "screams" quite loudly, and the person seems to unmask himself, which is not very pleasant. Therefore, when buying this metal detector, the main thing is to immediately buy headphones as well.

What more can be said? It should be noted that with a standard coil, the ACE 350 has an excellent pinpoint, however, it is better to double-check the find from both sides, as there are times when the device shows “color” on one side, and if you enter from the other, it already gives it to black.

Of course, you can write something else, you just don't remember everything at once, everything is already automatic. Another thing is important: this metal detector is a serious device. And whoever said anything, but it was the availability, simplicity and quality of this metal detector that allowed it to become the most recognizable, a kind of workhorse.

And even if it lacks some settings, somewhere it loses in depth, but in general - ACE EURO is a worthy machine with which you can enter this hobby, enter for a long time. And many search engines, who, by virtue of their preferences, having accumulated knowledge and experience, have acquired another metal detector, keep ACE as a spare device, since it is simply a pity to give it away - after all, this is a reliable comrade who is used to working in the most difficult conditions.

After the end of two search seasons, I learned Zen in identifying (discriminating) clear signals during instrument search with ACE Garrett 350 Euro. What, in fact, I want to tell you now and here. Naturally, these are just my personal and private guesses and conclusions, but after their application, the number of extra pits decreased significantly, and the number of interesting finds (oddly enough increased). Maybe due to the fact that time is not wasted digging corks and wires, and it is possible to go through and check a larger space.

In fact, my device is quite simple, but extremely reliable and stable. For two years, as they say, he had been training his hand and this spring he began to fully understand the signals of the device. You say: "And what is there to understand in it? There is a clear discrimination scale with the same clear segments." But read this article and you may change your mind. Oh, and by the way, you can try to check my speculations on other types and brands of metal detectors, because the principle of operation is almost the same for everyone.

It is natural and quite certain that the best discriminator is a shovel, there is no dispute here. But this is for those who have a lot of time and effort))). We are lungs and simple ways we are not looking, therefore, we carefully invent methods and methods of additional discrimination of signals.

How to define a clear (accurate, clean) signal? How you want to know and be sure that you are digging an interesting object, and not a cork, wire, nail ... Let's in order and on this subsequent story.

Let's say you caught a signal located in the "coin" sectors of the discrimination scale of your ACE Garrett 350 Euro metal detector (or, probably, another one). To dig or not to dig? And let's check this signal somehow, if it remains coinable, then we don't think about it. Well, if after the following steps you doubt the availability, then the "best discriminator is a shovel" will be able to confirm this to you.

I have divided the methods of additional discrimination into two groups:
- physical;
- instrumental.

Let's start with physical... Well, first of all, try the signal again (trivial, but this is the first and mandatory, everyone does it, but you need to write it down). Then try changing the speed of the coil wire, try turning around and checking the signal in the other direction. Is the signal still clear or are there already doubts? We continue our research. Try changing the height of the coil wire above the signal, how will the signal behave? Does the change in depth that your MD indicates match the change in the height of the coil wire? It is also important how the signal will behave at the edge of the coil (front or rear), a clear signal at the edge of the coil remains clear, and the signal from the "shmurdyak" will go to other segments. All this is done very quickly, but it gives us an additional 5 (five !!!) ways to discriminate the signal.

Well, a little instrumental methods. Change the "feel" up or down, and once again see how the signal behaves. Here we must not forget that with a decrease in sensitivity, a deep signal can give off to other segments of the discrimination scale, but this, again, may turn out to be, on the contrary, useful for determining the actual depth of objects. And now it's time for the pinpointer. First and foremost, the depth determined by the "ICQ" in the search mode and in the pinpointer mode should correlate. Those. if in the search mode it shows you 15-20 cm, and in the pinpointer mode it is 5 cm, then this is definitely not a coin, but a large piece of metal. Again, if you are interested - of course, dig, but you will already know what you are digging. Still very important point when discriminating with a pinpointer - if you cannot find the center of the target in pinpointer mode, then there is definitely a large object in the ground. And, yes ... after searching for a target with the pinpointer, re-check the signal in the search mode. Often, the target is "magnetized" from the pinpointer (well, or changes its potential) and can go to other segments of the discrimination scale.

Something like this ... And you said "... a clear discrimination scale with equally clear segments ..."... Above, 9 (nine !!!) additional ways of target discrimination were shown.

Whether to use them or not is always decided on a case-by-case basis. Of course, there is a possibility of missing something with additional discrimination, but if you decide to dig only pure signals, then this list will help you.

Good luck with your instrument search! I look forward to your comments on this and other articles.
