1. Introduction
The SD2200v2 has been developed by improving and redesigning the
SD2100technologytoincludeanumber ofnewfunctions.Thenew features
of the SD2200v2 are: two discrimination settings, automatic ground
balance, audio boost control and auto tuning control. Minelab is confident
that you will find this detector to be the finest available for the detection of
metallic objects in highly mineralised environments.
The SD2200v2 can“see” deeper than anyconventional detector available
onthemarket.Itssimpleoperationmeansthatthebeginnerandprofessional
will find it easy to use. Its superior ability to cancel mineralisation using
automatic ground balance, as well as discriminating between ferrous and
non-ferrous items, makes this machine easier and faster to use than ever
before. It will re-open old gold fields where mineralised, or “hot” ground
and too much rubbish have shielded many nuggets from the prying “eyes”
of other detector operators.
Minelab has studied the role that magnetic soil chemistry or so-called
mineralisationplaysin obscuring nuggets and hasdevelopedMulti-Period
Sensing (MPS) technology. This technology enables detection of metallic
targets, both large and small, even in the most mineralised or “hottest”
ground.Theunitalsoprovidesanautomaticgroundbalancingfacility, which

of ground types.
Includedintothecircuitry of theSD2200v2 are memory chips. These allow
the detector to remember the last ground balance and tune settings when
switched off. These memory functions also assist in the accurate
discrimination of ferrous targets in highly mineralised soil plus assist the
audio booster built into the machine.
We trust you will find this detector a pleasure to use with its stable and
effective ground balancing, superior depth capability and sensitivity.
Since there may be a range of options available in this detector type,
equipment may vary according to the model or country of issue. Certain
descriptions and illustrations may differ (in this manual) from the exact
model that you have purchased. In addition, Minelab reserve the right to
respond to ongoing technical progress by introducing changes in design,
equipment and technical features at any time.
