TOUCH CONTROL
GG / PINPOINT
The button has two functions according to the mode of operation:
a. In DISC mode, press and hold the PINPOINT start button
PINPOINT temporarily starts searching for objects without having to move
the coil. Any metal detected by the coil will make a sound. PINPOINT is
generally used to verify a finding that you found in DISCRIMINATION
mode.
b. In ALL METAL mode, press and hold the GROUND GRAB button
GROUND GRAB allows you to adjust the sensitivity of the detector to
metals and minerals contained in the soil. Different soil types have
different compositions.
+ and -
In DISCRIMINATION mode, you can adjust the sensitivity of the coil to various
metals
In ALL METAL MODE you can set different sensitivity to soil composition
CONTROL IN ALL METAL MODE
This mode is more sensitive than DISCRIMINATION mode and is used to find all metal objects in the
soil. The coil must be in motion to find objects.
GROUND GRAB (GG)
Naturally occurring minerals in the soil appear as metals for the coil.
Before using the detector, set the ALL METAL mode and start the automatic detection of the soil
composition. Press and hold the GG button as you move the coil up and down. Release the button as
soon as the sound stabilizes. The GND BAL value is displayed in the lower right corner of the screen.
Different soils require different values, so always run the GROUND GRAB function first before
searching.
SETTINGS
During settings, the values in the lower right corner of the screen change.
If you are familiar with the detector, set GAIN and THRESHOLD to lower values so that you do not
hear loud noises or unwanted noises. Set GAIN to 12:00 or less. Adjust THRESHOLD so that you can
hear soft sounds in the background or to a position where there is no steady sound.
UNWANTED SOUND NOTIFICATIONS
This device is very sensitive, unwanted notifications can be caused by electromagnetic interferences
caused by electrical devices.
COIL MOVEMENT
Move the coil parallel to the ground and in one level. Avoid lifting the coil while searching for objects.
READING THE DATA ON THE DISPLAY
Most objects are found using sound signals, where the object is distinguished by sound signal.
Notice the Fe

O

scale on the left side of the display.
This scale indicates the values of minerals in the soil. Most black sand is made up of magnetite.
Golden nuggets are most often found in concentrated black sand deposits.
For the best results for finding objects in highly mineralized soils, we recommend setting the ALL
METAL mode. For the most accurate measurement of Fe
3
O
4
, we recommend adjusting the soil
composition of GROUD GRAB. As the coil moves, notice the GND PHASE value in the center of the
display. GND PHASE indicates the type of minerals in the soil. If the GND PHASE and GND BAL
(GROUND GRAB) values are significantly different, we recommend performing a GROUD GRAB
again.
