ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE
Use the Sensitivity Control is to eliminate
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI).
The F2 metal detector is an extremely sensitive
device; the search coil creates its own
magnetic field and acts like an antenna. If
your detector beeps erratically when the
search coil is motionless, the unit is probably
detecting another electromagnetic field.

The F2 metal detector is an extremely sensitive
device; the search coil creates its own

your detector beeps erratically when the
search coil is motionless, the unit is probably
detecting another electromagnetic field.
Common sources of EMI are electric power lines, both suspended and buried,
motors, and household appliances like computers and microwave ovens.
Some indoor electronic devices, such as dimmer switches used on household
lighting, produce severe EMI and can cause the detector to beep erratically.
Other metal detectors also produce their own electromagnetic fields; so if
detecting with a friend, keep two metal detectors at least 20 feet apart.

Pad on the left of the control panel.
In most urban environments, you should be able to search without chatter from
interference at the default sensitivity setting (default setting is the sensitivity level
at power-up, 4 bars), or at one level reduced from default. At maximum
sensitivity, the F2 will “chatter” in proximity to underground or overhead power
lines, or to indoor or outdoor electrical devices. In fact, if you notice rapid
chatter with the searchcoil near the ground, you may be able to trace the
approximate location of the underground power lines by following the chatter.

Try sweeping it over the ground.
If the F2 chatters while held still, or held up in the air, it may be much
quieter when sweeping over the ground.

SEVERE GROUND CONDITIONS
A secondary use for the Sensitivity Control is to reduce false detection signals
caused by severe ground conditions. While the detector contains circuitry to
eliminate the signals caused by most naturally occurring ground minerals, 100%
of all ground conditions cannot be anticipated. Highly magnetic soils found in
mountainous and gold-prospecting locations can cause the detector to emit
tones when metal objects are not present. High saline content soils and sands
can sometimes cause the detector to beep when no metal target is present.

If the detector emits false, non-repeatable, signals, REDUCE THE SENSITIVITY.
