Ace 250 question

laserart · September 2005

I am still in a learning curve with it, haven't had too long. In what scenario would I want to turn the sensitivity all the way to full? I started out turning it all the way up and got a lot of false signals and now I have it about halfway.

Yeah! mine too, well almost....when i hunt in the parks and such i run the sensitivity between 50-75% without much problem....on the beach, in the wet sand, i have to run it below the halfway mark or the falsing drives me nuts....i like the machine, i guess thats just the way it is though....good luck

I've got a White's Prizm III, but it's the same for any detector. Don't put the sensitivity up all the way because of that. It's just like a pinpointer. You have to set the sensitivity right so it dosen't constently ring at everything.

On my 2500 I run the sens at around 8.5...If the soil is "clean"...then I would set it higher, but I have not seen where it goes that much deeper..as a matter of fact, if the sens is set too high, it will be a mask to the objects below...

Just set the sensitivity as high as it will go without causing false signals. If you get false or erratic signals, ease off on the sensitivity a bit.

Down here we can get away with pretty high settings unless it's on the beach. In other areas, that isn't the case. 50-75% may be the best you can do.

The only time I can run sensitivity at max (12 on the GTI) or close to it is when I have a sniper coil on. In certain soils it can still false at max but not too often.

On the 250 4 bars is usually the norm for the standard coil.
