CTX 3030 is a complete professional metal detector, combining FBS 2 technology that transmits multiple frequencies from 1.5 to 100 kHz with advanced digital coil-to-control-box communication, and Smartfind 2 discrimination that displays ferrous and conductivity values in clear colour on screen.
The built-in GPSi system logs GeoTrails, WayPoints and FindPoints with high accuracy, letting you retrace your path and revisit promising locations, with data transfer to Google Maps via XChange 2 software.
Wi-Stream wireless audio through the included WM 10 module delivers under 10ms latency, and Koss UR30 headphones are included too. The detector is fully waterproof to 3 metres (10 ft), with an ergonomic design that shifts battery weight behind the armrest.
Five preset modes suited to different environments, with 20 customisable discrimination patterns (2 per mode).
Displays ferrous (Fe) and conductivity (Co) values in colour on screen, with resolution up to 1,750 discrimination patterns (35×50).
Built-in GPS logs GeoTrails, WayPoints and FindPoints, letting you retrace your path and return to promising spots via XChange 2 software.
Identifies multiple targets at once (iron-coin and ground-coin separation) for greater accuracy in crowded areas.
