Reactivity Issue?

[Tedyoh]

Hi,
I noticed that if I'm over a questionable deep target and turn down my reactivity from 3 to 2 or 1 to get a little more depth my ground balance number will drop by 20+ points for some reason (GB in Tracking mode). Does anyone else have this issue and or is this normal?

Thanks!

if you are using tracking, it should re-track in a few seconds once you start swinging again.

it will drop gb #'s if you set it down and pause too long...

Yes I have noticed when I set it down to dig it will drop and reset quickly but the issue is when I drop the reactivity and re check the target immediately, GB drops and most of the time will not reset quickly, I will need to move out of the area or raise it manually. Thanks.

Agreed!

The lower you can set your reactivity the more depth you get. I try to run 2 in most places unless super trashy.

A few quick pumps or sweep of the coil and tracking catches right up I noticed.I switch between 2 programs to double check my targets ,I have each pre set with tracking on so when I switch it takes those few sweeps/pumps to let tracking catch up.I have my deep program on reactivity of 2 right now,and my hot program on 3.I think I will set up a third with the reactivity on 1.1 on the Deus is equal to what alot of machines come from the factory with.I really like being able to adjust this.I hope more companies go this route.

Yeah the GB is still not catching up....quickly anyway (takes 20 -30 seconds). ..must be because of the heavy trash. ...if I move out of the area a bit all is well.... if I keep toggling in and out of the GB option that seems to work for some reason

I'm sure the manual says anytime you press a button it recalibrates itself. Should hold it in the air when you do that I would think?

I dont think i read that and not that I know everything about this machine, only had it a few weeks, but I don't think the Reactivity setting, or adjusting it should have anything to do with the GB setting.

Well I may wait 5 or 10 sec depending on the ground.It may take longer on really bad ground??

Yes that's what I'm thinking as well....I will take it out to a clean field tomorrow and see what happens. ...thanks to all.
