White's Bullseye TRX Pinpointer
Introduction
The White's Bullseye TRX is a hand-held pinpointer designed to assist metal detectorists in precisely locating targets once they have been unearthed. It enhances the detection process by providing clear proximity feedback.
Key Features
- Audio Alert: ? The pinpointer emits a repeating beep. The frequency of the beeps increases as the probe tip moves closer to a metallic target, indicating proximity.
- Vibration Alert: ? In addition to audio, the TRX features a vibrator that produces short, repeating pulses. This is useful for silent operation or in noisy environments.
- Proximity Indication: Both audio and vibration alerts intensify with decreasing distance to the target.
- Ergonomic Design: The unit is designed for comfortable, one-handed operation.
- Sensitivity: Engineered for high sensitivity to small targets.
- Water Resistance: The TRX is often designed to be water-resistant, allowing for use in wet conditions or even shallow submersion.
Operation
To operate the White's Bullseye TRX:
- Turn the unit on using its power control.
- Gently sweep the pinpointer's tip over the area where a target is suspected.
- Pay attention to the audio alerts (beeping) and vibration feedback.
- As the pinpointer gets closer to the target, the rate of beeps and vibrations will increase.
- Use this feedback to pinpoint the exact location of the target.
- Turn the unit off when finished to conserve battery power.
