Key Technologies
CTX 3030 uses advanced electronics and signal analysis to give you much more information about buried targets than any other detector.
With FBS 2, Smartfind 2, GPSi and Wi-Stream, Minelab takes the World's Best Metal Detection Technologies to the next level of performance.
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 greatly enhances Minelab's FeCo Discrimination to analyze and display a target's Ferrous (Fe) and Conductive (Co) properties on a full colour LCD.
Ultra-fast micro-controllers carry out digital signal processing to provide significantly improved target separation.
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 uses efficient low-power digital audio transmission to achieve no perceivable audio time lag (<10 ms) from the CTX 3030 to the WM 10.
With multiple channel capability, this wireless technology provides reliable communication with maximum sound quality.
