Operating the Golden Mask One
The Golden Mask One is designed to be as simple to operate as possible.
The controls of the detector are 5 buttons on the front panel of the control box and a
switch on the back side of the battery box to control the wireless transmitter for the wire-
less headphones (if you purchased this option).
On the LCD screen are shown all the working parameters of the detector, the TargetID
number and the Spectrum VDI scale, where a graphic of the target signal response is
shown to help identifying the target detected.
On the graphic below you can see the LCD screen indicators. Buttons will be explained
later.
Main Parts and Assembly
Your Golden Mask One comes in a box that contain: the detector with telescopic carbon
shaft and a search coil. By default, the One is delivered without batteries, charger and
wireless headphones. You could have these as options: 10 x 1500 or 2500mAh AA NiMh
rechargeable batteries (this could be subject to change, while shipping batteries in some
destinations is prohibited), GM Smart charger and wireless headphones WS 105 or WS106.
In the box you will also find a warranty card, invoice and other purchase papers (payment
statement, packing slip - may vary upon payment method and destination country).
There is nothing special assembling the detector. You have to attach the coil to the lower
stem of the shaft, using the supplied plastic bolt and screw (they are already on their
place), then attach the coil cable to the main unit. If your detector is purchased without
batteries, you must open the battery compartment, extract the battery cassette, put-in
10 AA batteries (Alkaline or NiMH), but the battery cassette back in and close the battery
compartment. Now you are ready to go.
To extend the telescopic shaft, start from the first section by the side of the coil. Turn the
fixing screw counter-clockwise, pull the search coil gently to the full extent of the carbon
pipe and then fix the section by turning the fixing screw clockwise. Do the same with the
second section. Check if the length is enough, if not, extend the third section to match the
desired length.
WARNING
: The third section can be pulled out completely from the handle part to make
your detector even shorter and easier to transport. Please, be sure to have a minimum of
15 cm (6 inch) of the third section inside the fixing screw of the handle section, otherwise
the stem will not be stable enough and could be broken, especially if a large coil is used.
