VOLUME      

Vol 

Volume adjustment. The higher the setting value is, the louder the sound volume and the 

smaller the difference in volume between strong and weak signals are. The recommended 

value when operating with the MDLink module is 6-8.

TRANSMITTER      

TRANS

The detector has an MDLink transmitter built-in in its control box. It provides wireless sound 

transmission to the headphones via the MDLink module without delay and distortion. To 

activate the transmitter, set it to the same channel as the module. When the transmitter is 

activated,  the  audio  output  will  be  automatically  turned  off  from  the  built-in  speaker. The 

radio module icon and the number of the chosen channel             will appear at the top of the 

screen, and the green LED light will have a periodic blink inside the control box. For effective 

searching we recommend that you always use the headphones (to hear weak signals better) 

thereby reducing power consumption and increasing the detector’s operation time without 

charging the battery.

OPERATION MODE     

MODE 

The

 iL

 mode for the use in both humanitarian and military demining.

iL 

is a special mode designed to detect metal-containing explosives. In this mode, the metal 

detector has one tone audio indication without determining the type of metal 

(ferrous/non-ferrous), TARGET ID isn’t displayed on screen.
The audio tone increases/decreases as the coil approaches/gets farther away from a target.

It must be remembered that explosives may contain both ferrous and non-ferrous metallic 

elements (as 

PMN-2

 or 

PFM-1

 do), therefore an EOD specialist mustn’t ignore any signals that 

may potentially be produced by explosives. 

This is precisely why professional mine detectors operate in one-tone mode without 

determining the type of metal (ferrous/non-ferrous).

An 

allows to distinguish between ferrous and non-ferrous metals.

In this mode, the operator can differentiate metal types:

• with tonality – 4 tones (1 ferrous tone, 3 non-ferrous tones);

• with TARGET ID: 

ferrous range is -9 to -1;

non-ferrous range is 0 to 90.

The 

iL

 mode is more resistant to radio 

waves interference and offers enhanced 

operating stability.
IMPORTANT!!! In the 

iL

 mode, you should 

scan the ground surface using slow, short 

sweeps. 
IMPORTANT!!! While  scanning, each 

subsequent sweep of the coil should 

overlap the previous sweep to ensure 

complete ground coverage.
