CTX 3030 Technologies
FBS 2
FBS 2 combines Minelab's FBS multiple frequency rectangular-wave transmission (1.5 kHz –100 kHz) with advanced digital coil-to-detector communications. The precisely calibrated smart coils and detector electronics allow advanced signal analysis for more accurate detection.
SMARTFIND 2
Smartfind 2 greatly enhances Minelab's FeCo Discrimination to analyse and display a target's Ferrous (Fe) and Conductive (Co) properties on a full colour LCD.
Ultra-fast microcontrollers carry out digital signal processing to provide significantly improved target separation.
GPSI
GPSi uses the high performance and flexibility of a u-blox GPS positioning engine to seamlessly integrate location and time data with detector settings and target information. This creates WayPoint, FindPoint and GeoHunt files that are compatible with XChange 2.
WI-STREAM
Wi-Stream uses efficient low-power digital audio transmission to achieve no perceivable audio time lag (<10 ms) between the Wi-Stream enabled detector and the WM Wireless Module. With multiple channel capability, this wireless technology provides reliable communication with maximum sound quality.
Wi-Stream technology is offered in a range of Minelab detectors, however the WM modules are not cross compatible between detectors.
WM module and detector compatibility:
WM 12 - GPZ 7000
WM 10 - CTX 3030
WM 08 - EQUINOX Series
