FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Goldot Support FAQ

Quick answers to common questions about metal detectors, technology and Goldot-Tec resources.

How do metal detectors work?
Metal detectors generate an electromagnetic field and analyze changes caused by conductive or magnetic objects within the detection field. The exact operating principle depends on the detector technology, such as VLF or Pulse Induction.
What is the difference between VLF and PI metal detectors?
VLF and Pulse Induction detectors use different detection principles. VLF systems can provide useful target identification and discrimination capabilities, while PI systems are often selected for difficult mineralized ground and gold prospecting applications.
What is a 3D imaging system?
A 3D imaging system is designed to collect subsurface measurements and represent them visually so operators can analyze underground anomalies and structures. The exact capabilities depend on the system, sensors and software.
What is a long-range detection system?
Long-range systems are specialized detection technologies that differ from conventional search-coil metal detectors. Their operating principles, intended applications and performance characteristics vary by manufacturer and model.
How deep can a metal detector detect?
There is no single universal detection depth. Performance depends on target size, target composition, soil mineralization, detector technology, search coil or sensor, operating settings and user technique.
How should I choose a metal detector?
Start with your target and environment rather than the detector's advertised depth. Consider whether you are searching for gold nuggets, coins, relics, larger buried objects or subsurface structures, then compare the technologies and features designed for that application.
Where can I find product manuals?
Goldot is building a dedicated manuals and technical resources section where users can find product manuals, quick-start guides and related documentation.
