The MZ 6100’s bright LED indicators are highly visible, even in direct sunlight. The unit’s 20 detection zones provide the precise location for one or more metallic objects simultaneously, and advanced circuitry allows multiple detectors to be installed as close as 2 inches from each other.
Operator adjustments are simple, thanks to an intuitive menu design and a convenient slider bar to quickly adjust the value of a detector setting. The MZ 6100 also includes an Auto Scan function where the unit automatically selects the optimal operating frequency for environmental noise cancellation.
