Electronics announces a new target identification meter for use with the
Minelab™ Sovereign™ metal detector
West Elizabeth, PA —
After nearly three years of development and testing, Patrick Electronics has
recently released a new type of target identification meter for use with the
Minelab™ Sovereign™ metal detector series.
Named the Patriot™
Target A.I.M. PRO™, it is the first analog-type-display target
identification meter designed exclusively for use with the Minelab™ Sovereign™
metal detector.
What makes our meter so
extremely unique – explains company owner Joe Patrick - is the fact that it is
an analog (needle-pointer type) meter that is totally controlled by a digital
microcontroller (computer chip). The digital-design and control aspect of our
meter provides extremely precise, accurate and repeatable I.D. meter indications.
The Target A.I.M. PRO™ meter is essentially a target
I.D. computer with an analog meter needle-pointer indicator!
Because the Target A.I.M. PRO™ is a direct-read type meter, no
‘look-up’ chart is needed to interpret target I.D. readings, as is the case
with digital, numeric I.D. meters.
Our unique
and ultra-precise Auto-C.O.I.L.™
automatic search coil/control box calibration feature, digital I.D. processing
and digital meter control, combined with an 11-step computer-aided factory
calibration procedure all contribute to making the Target A.I.M. PRO™ extremely
easy to use, while maintaining very high I.D. accuracy and operating stability.
Two user-selectable
operating and viewing modes are available and the meter’s face has a bright
‘light-up’ illumination feature for nighttime searching - with a
user-selectable ON, OFF and 30-second timeout feature. A bright-red Iron
Sentry™ L.E.D. indicator provides extremely accurate and reliable
identification of troublesome Iron targets - that can so often sound like and
mimic good targets.
The Target A.I.M. PRO™
meter retails for $295.00 and is covered by a 1-year limited warranty.
