NOTE: It is recommended to select the lower or medium value of the numeric
range. Because if you select a top value, you might miss the target below the
selected value.
If you do not press the buttons (DISC,+,-) within 2 seconds, the detector will enter
the standby state.
•
NOTCH: Press NOTCH, then + or – to select the target to be notched. The cursor
above the selected target will flash. Press NOTCH again, the target name below
the cursor will disappear. It means this target will be notched during the
detection and the detector will have no reaction to the notched target. If you
want to pick up the target notched, simply press NOTCH again. Press + or -, the
cursor will move from left and right. If NOTCH is not pressed within about 3
seconds, the detector will enter standby state.
NOTE: It is not recommended to notch all targets listed on the LCD. Because if
you notch everything, you cannot find anything.
If you want to select the setting of DISC or SENS after pressing NOTCH, you have
to wait for about 3 seconds until the cursor above the target goes out.
•
Press SENS then + or – to set sensitivity. The default level is of 6 bars.
NOTE: If you do not press the button (SENS,+,-) within about 2seconds, the
detector will enter the standby state.
•
Place the detector on a wooden or plastic table, and then remove any watches,
rings, or metal jewellery you are wearing.
•
Adjust the search coil so the flat part points towards the ceiling.
NOTE: Never test the detector on a floor inside a building. Most buildings have
metal of some kind in the floor, which might interfere with the objects you are
testing or mask the signal completely.
•
Slowly sweep a sample of the material you want the detector to find (such as a
gold ring or a coin) 2-3 inches or more above the face of the search coil. When
the detector detects any metal, it sounds a tone, and an arrow appears below the
target icon. Also, LCD displays the depth of the target.
NOTE: If you are using a coin, the detector will detect it more easily if you hold it.
So, a flat side is parallel with the flat side of the search coil. A sweep with side of
coin over search coil might cause false indication and unstable display of arrow.
