The Minelab Manticore is a high power metal detector built on Multi-IQ+ technology, which transmits more power through the coil across a wider range of operating frequencies. It produces a 50% power increase over the Minelab EQUINOX series. Revamped signal processing improves discrimination, Target ID resolution and target separation.
A 2D ID Map shows targets on a 100-point Target ID range, with a visual Ferrous Limits layer. The Ferrous Limits can be edited to accept ferrous coins, reject complex ferrous targets, or unmask targets in iron. A Custom Discrimination Pattern accepts good Target IDs and rejects bad ones. Audio options include customizable target tones, up to 5 Tone Regions with assignable pitch and volume, Continuous Pitch (VCO) audio with ferrous tones, and EMI chatter suppression.
The detector has over 10 Presets: All-Terrain modes for inland detecting, Beach modes for sand, surf and seawater, and a Goldfield mode for gold nuggets. Up to ten Custom Search Modes can be saved. It has a large color screen and improved EMI rejection, which allows higher sensitivity in challenging conditions. The IP68-rated detector can be submerged to 5 m (16 ft). It uses a three-piece, collapsible carbon-fiber shaft and a SCORPION Armrest. A Minelab Pro Find 35 pinpointer is included.
