DOC Posted July 5, 2015 Report Share Posted July 5, 2015 Got an email from the Minelab techs in Australia about why the GPZ7000 and the Garret Pin Pointer are not getting along:This makes a lot of sense. DocWhat is likely happening with a non-Minelab pinpointer is that the magnetic field from the GPZ 7000 is inducing a current in the coil winding of the pinpointer (even when the pinpointer is off). This generates a signal that the detector then picks up, just like a gold nugget or other metal object generates a signal.The PRO-FIND 25 has something we call DIF – Detector Interference Free – when the Minelab pinpointer is turned off the pinpointer coil is also made open circuit so no induced current can flow through the winding, no signal is generated and the detector then doesn’t ‘see’ the pinpointer.You understand a bit about detector technology, so this explanation should make sense to you without me needing to go into more detail. Feel free to post the information.We mention in our PRO-FIND 25 brochure on the second page:https://www.minelab.com/__files/f/99517/4907-0604-brochure-pro-find-25-usa.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCHAVEZMISC Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 Does the Makro have this same feature? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
