I have a problem with idx I have a full structure but does not work like that made

I ask has the experience to give us a good scheme
Thank you to everyone who contributed to this forum

golfnut hello, my coil is a double D 27 CM house.

can you give some construction details, wire thickness, number of turns, inductance etc. thank you.

Looks pretty solid - what coil do you have on that?

here is the 3rd re-encoded video, it was of poor quality on youtube.

hello, if you want to run start by searching the documentation to know the functioning of vlf detectors as indicated Qiaozhi you subsequently start the TGSL project which is already very good for beginners. Once completed you will have learned a lot about the operation, design, settings vlf detectors.

Hello, I am new to this forum and I wish I built this metal detector, I have little knowledge of electronics, but do not know what schematic to choose, and I would like if someone can help me with a list of all parts that the schematic do not understand everything. thanks for what you do here.

If you have little knowledge of electronics, you would be better of building the TGSL project -> TGSL - Complete Details
A kit is available from www.silverdog.co.uk

here is the test video of my idx pro light version without display and without multi-tone mode. Depth level is not bad on a 35 cm ring bronze.

Hello Friends. Am making coils for a IDX head with a CC mold I have. I got the TX coil parameters, but it still fails with the RX. I have the right inductance (34.9mH) correct resistance (a little high 144 Ohms) but I can not right the exact capacitance. The meter indicates -1.045 uF (minus) and the frequency is close to 0.27 kHz with a 33nF cap in parallel.

I tried to compensate with capacitors placed in parallel but I can not make it vary significantly. Did anyone notice what is my mistake?

Thank you in advance.

Hello again. I want to thank the community of Geotech for not answering my previous post, because thanks to that I could learn a bit more about what measurements do to make the coil work properly.


I built the IDX version of post # 36, but finally put the values of Silverdog board (there's some pictures in the forum, at the start of the thread)

Size of the Coil: TX 21cm, RX 11cm. I got an annulment of 0.1 mV and is detecting between 32cm (strong) and 34cm (hum) on the test bench. It was a matter of wires, turns and cancellation (now I think I understand the whole process).

Ferrite bar makes a few cracks up to 3 GB potentiometer and then disappears, so I think ground balance works well. Discrimination does not work well:from "0" to "5"works very little. Until "5" sees a small nail, and then, suddenly, everything disappears (coins, pure silver, nails, etc.) but I think that will be fixed when I shield the coil or I'll see how.

Just to share experiences.

regards

Fabian

And what was wrong, scope probe ?

Yes! By an mistake I quoted your post, but thanks to both of you. I was sure there is something stupid like this, because with 1,2 volts on the TX I would not have a working detector.
