MANUAL MODE OF OPERATION
If you like the preset level of the ticking rate and find it appropriate for your needs, press
the DETECT button to enter the operational screen and start searching.
If you want to change the ticking rate you could make it by pressing DEPTH or TUNER
buttons. Note that the DEPTH and TUNER buttons have an ARROW like form and
function. You could increase or decrease the ticking rate by pressing the right arrow
(TUNER) button or left arrow (DEPTH) button.
For a higher sensitivity increase the ticking rate. But have in mind that the increasing of
the ticking rate too much won’t give you any more sensitivity, it could even worsen the
quality of detector’s operation.
There are cases when the detector becomes unstable, due to high mineralization or
electromagnetic interferences nearby. In such cases you could decrease the ticking rate,
pressing the left arrow (DEPTH) button. This will increase the stability of operation, but will
decrease significantly the sensitivity of the detector.
No matter whether you have increased or decreased the ticking rate you’ll have to press
the DETECT button. Immediately upon this the processor will save the setting of the
ticking rate you have chosen and will keep it, no matter the changes in the ground
conditions or the changes of the operational height of the detector’s coil.
Have in mind, that if you sharply change the operational height of the coil, the ticking rate
will change sharply, and the processor will need about ten seconds to return to the ticking
rate you have chosen. If you do not want to wait for this, press one of the RESET buttons.
NOTE: If you are over a metal target while pressing a RESET button this could eliminate
the target!
You could check at every time the level of tuning,
looking at the right bottom end of the display - the
current level of tuning is inscribed in %. May be it is
good to know that when you are on the field and you
tune the detector and the processor choose a lower
value in percentage, this will mean that the soil’s
mineralization is higher. If you tune the detector in the
town, the lower percentage value will mean that you
are near to metal objects. In this case you’ll have to find a clear from metal objects place.
Immediately after that on the display appears an inscription for manual tunning.
