The ground balance is the level the detector uses to ignore signals which are generated by movement of the search head relative to the ground or changes in soil conditions. The level can be set to track the correct ground level continuously (TRACKING), or to a level you choose. The EVO6000 can suggest a level for you to choose (AUTOSET) or you can set a value manually (MANUAL).


GROUND

Set the ground level manually.


TRACKING

Track the correct ground level continuously.


AUTOSET

Your EVO6000 will calculate a level for you.



The simplest way to set the ground level is to use TRACKING. When you chose this option the GTRACK indicator under the small digits on the left of the screen will light up, the EVO6000 will continuously adjust the ground level, and the small digits will show the ground level being used.


To set the ground level manually choose GROUND put the search head on the soil or sand and then repeatedly raise it and bring it back down. Use the up and down buttons  to change the ground level. When the detector is silent and ignores the ground signal press the OK button .


To use a ground level automatically calculated by the EVO6000 choose AUTOSET put the search head on the soil or sand and then repeatedly raise it and bring it back down. The EVO6000 will calculate a ground level and display it on the screen. You can alter the level using the up and down buttons . When the detector is silent and ignores the ground signal press the OK button .


When you use GROUND or AUTOSET and the ground conditions change, the EVO6000 will tell you by flashing a HI or LO message on the small digits on the left hand side of the screen. You can correct the ground level by repeating the GROUND or AUTOSET process.
