E-Trac Modes
Mode Settings, Universal Settings
and Preferences
E-Trac’s settings can be divided into three
categories: Mode Settings, Universal Settings
and Preferences. The signicance of each
category is explained below.
Mode Settings
These settings dene E-Trac’s performance
for a particular location (such as the beach
or park) or type of treasure hunting (such as
coins or relics). E-Trac is designed to allow you
to save these Mode Settings as a User Mode.
A User Mode can be saved in, or retrieved
from, E-Trac memory; or shared with another
user via E-Trac Xchange (p. 80).
Universal Settings
These settings aect E-Trac’s performance but
can be adjusted regardless of your location
and desired treasure type. Universal Settings
are determined according to your personal
detecting choices (e.g. Sensitivity, Noise
Cancel and Threshold Pitch).
Preferences
These settings do not aect E-Trac’s
performance and allow you to customize the
appearance of the Detection Screens (e.g.
Contrast and Show Sensitivity).

detector settings and a Discrimination

The Coins Mode is the default User Mode,
and will be active when you rst turn on your
E-Trac, or after a Reset (p. 19) and/or a
Master Reset (p. 79).
A User Mode can be loaded, modied, and
saved in E-Trac’s memory in one of the four
memory slots as either My Mode 1, My Mode
2, My Mode 3 or My Mode 4 (pp. 40–1).
If Show Mode Info (p. 78) is turned on, E-Trac
will display the Mode Information icons in
the Detection Screens (pp. 26–7) to show the
current User Mode.
Note: You can load a User Mode and adjust its
settings and the Disc. Pattern. If the User Mode
is not saved, the changes to the Disc. Pattern
and settings will be lost if another User Mode
is loaded.
User Modes can be exchanged between
