AUTO MODE OF OPERATION
First we’ll introduce the easiest mode of operation of the detector. Further
in the instructions we’ll call it AUTO mode. The important thing for this mode is
that there would not be necessary to make manual ground adjustments to the
different ground conditions.
Turn all the controls and switches
to the red marked positions (Figure
4
).
GND adjust
and
threshold
(on the rear
panel of the control box) do not have
red markers, as they do not take part
in this mode of operation.
Freq.1/Freq.2
switch has no red
marker too. The frequency 1 or 2 is
chosen depending on which of these
two frequencies the detector is less
noisy. The choice is made with one
and the same sensitivity level.
When turning the detector on
(
on/off
button
on the rear panel) it
congratulates you with alternating
green and red lights . Then for a
second the LED indicator will
light in green, if the batteries
are charged, and in red
-
if the
batteries are discharged and
need to be recharged.
The
disc
control has two red
zones. For nugget hunting is the most counterclockwise red zone. In this zone
you won’t have audio discrimination. For coin shooting use the
coins
zone. If
you want to dig the bigger sized ferrous targets like knives, arrows and spears,
rifles, guns, turn back this control to the
relic
position. In this position the
detector will reject only the tiny pieces of wire. Do not increase the
discrimination beyond the
foil
mark, the detector will start rejecting some thin
jewelry and low conductivity coins or other targets. More detailed description
of the functions of this control will be given in the instructions further on. After
you have got accustomed with the detector’s operation with these settings,
you could turn the
low/high
switch to the
high
position. This will make your
detector significantly more sensitive and deep. You could add more sensitivity
by further rotating clockwise the
sens.
control, until you hear rare interrupted
noises. The coil should be static while you change the sensitivity level, and the
interrupted noises will fade when you start sweeping the coil.
We recommend in this mode to use the
one tone
position(marked in red) of
the
mixed/one tone
switch.
