On all my tests, for depth purposes, the non motion mode got the best results. I took the unit 5 miles south of Edmonton, out to a gravel road, tweaked the sensitivity up high, along with the threshold, and I was getting readings around 20 inches on a US nickel in pristine condition, with the help of the re-tune button. There were no power lines nearby, or any cables running underground. Although it was definitely a weak signal, it was there, and If I was looking to dig those quiet repeating wisps of a signal, I would have dug this one.

When switching between modes on the ATX, I notice a double click would get me either motion or non-motion. The non-motion mode is validated with 5 stationary red LED.s lighting up on the console face. The motion mode has a red LED in constant motion, validating that you are now in the motion mode. So simple to switch back and forth.

Non-Motion mode is shown below. Hit Shift key (it lights up) then hit Non-Motion Motion until you get the 5 stationary LEDS. Hit shift key again or wait several seconds and it will turn off automatically.
