Please read the following section very carefully before operating the
device. This is important in terms of getting the best performance out
of your detector!
WIRELESS CONNECTION AND PAIRING
The INVENIO system box and shaft & handle communicate wirelessly.
Normally, the system box and the shaft & handle are paired before they
are shipped from the factory. Therefore, they will connect directly upon
initial start up.
Please follow the pairing steps below if there is no connection
established :
1.
Be sure that the system box and shaft & handle are turned off.
2.
While pressing the SCAN button on the handle, turn the ON/OFF
switch on the shaft to ON position. The LED on the handle will start
blinking red.
3.
While pressing the Zoom In button on the system box, turn the
system box on - do not let go of the button! When the pairing is
successful, the LED will blink green twice and turn off. You can now
let go of the button.
4.
Once the pairing is done, the system box and shaft & handle will
connect automatically upon start up.
NOTE :
You may hear the sound of the relay circuit in the shaft during
pairing; this is normal.
You can follow the status of the wireless connection from the WiFi
icon the INFO bar located at the bottom of the screen. If the icon is
green, it means there is connection. If the icon is red, it means there
is no connection.
If the Wireless Shaft Channel is turned off in the OPTIONS, the
connection will be lost, the LED on the handle will start blinking red
and the WiFi icon on the INFO bar will turn red as well.
Similarly, if the connection is lost due to any reason, the LED on the
handle will start blinking red. When the connection is reestablished,
the LED will blink green twice.
SEARCHING
All modes of the INVENIO, except for the Ground Anomaly & Cavity,
work in 2 different detection screens - one with and one without the
IPTU sensor. The Ground Anomaly & Cavity mode will work in the
detection screen with the sensor only. Detection screen selection
does not have direct effect on the operation of the modes. The main
difference between the 2 screens is as follows: When searching in the
detection screen without the IPTU sensor, the device detects targets
and displays their IDs only. On the other hand, while searching in the
detection screen with the IPTU sensor, apart from the IDs, the device
also provides the instant depth, shape and 3D graphs of detected
targets.
SEARCHING IN DETECTION SCREEN WITH IPTU SENSOR
A. SENSOR CALIBRATION
1.
First, adjust the shaft length and coil angle to searching position.
Then place the search coil on a flat surface, adjust the search coil angle
so that it is parallel with the ground and lean it against a fixed object
such as a tree, rock or a wall. If there is no place to lean it against, hold
it stable with your hand.
2.
Turn both the system box and shaft & handle on.
3.
Press the SETTINGS button and select ''Calibrate the sensor''.
4.
Press the OK button and wait for the calibration process to be
completed. Once the progress bar is full, the calibration will be
completed and the device will automatically revert to the selected
mode's detection screen.
NOTE :
If you will search using the detection screen without the IPTU
sensor, you do not need to do the calibration process.
B. GROUND BALANCE
Especially if you will use one of the non-motion modes, you must
ground balance the detector before starting to search. Ground
balancing plays a big role in minimizing the false signals and obtaining
target shapes. All details regarding ground balance are explained in
the relevant sections of the manual.
C. SEARCHING
To obtain accurate data in the detection screen with the IPTU sensor,
first be sure that the IPTU sensor is properly calibrated.
While searching in this screen, the height of the coil above the ground
is critical for the sensor to obtain accurate data. For this reason, pay
attention to the height indicator on the screen. The ideal search height
is shown with green on the indicator. To obtain the best results while
searching and scanning, pay attention to keeping the search coil within
the green area.
While searching in this screen, you can see the movements of the
coil in real time on the 3D detection ground. As the search coil moves
forward or back, the 3D detection ground will slide. The areas scanned
over by the search coil will be painted in gray on the screen. You can
see how much area you have scanned by zooming in and out on the
ground. When you zoom in or out on the ground, the target signals and
the search coil will also be zoomed in or out. Zoom does not affect the
scaling of the ground. For example, if the search coil scans an area of
1 meter while you zoom in or out on the ground at maximum, the total
scanned area will still be shown as 1 meter on the result screen.
TRACE function :
When you press the TRACE button and activate this
function, the screen will follow the coil and rotate in the same direction.
When you press the TRACE button, the word TRACE will be displayed
on the INFO bar.
When you detect a target in the detection screen with the IPTU sensor,
the target ID will be displayed on the cursor on the color ID bar at
the top of the screen. At the same time, the signal obtained from the
target will be displayed with a 3D graph and colored according to the
type of target. Ferrous metals are indicated with red, gold/non-ferrous
metals with yellow, and non-ferrous metals are indicated with green. In
addition, the depth of the detected target will be shown on the depth
indicator instantly.
While searching in this screen, drifts may happen in both directions
on the Drift-Metal bar at the bottom. When the bar fills up in the Drift
direction, nothing will be displayed on the 3D detection ground, and the
device will not produce any audio. When the drift happens in the metal
direction on the other hand, a flat, continuous graph will appear on the
detection ground, and the device will produce an audio response.
In such a case, pull the trigger towards you once and release it to
manually retune the device. If the drifts are still present, you can use
the AutoReset and Stabilizer settings to eliminate the drifts. Please
read the relevant sections of the manual for more details.
The 3D signal graph will stay on screen as long as you do not move
the search coil. Once you move the coil, it will stay on screen for about
3 minutes and then disappear. As the 3D detection ground slides, the
signals may fall outside the screen. If you go back to the spots where
you obtained the signals within 3 minutes, you can see the 3D graphs
again.
In detection screen with the IPTU sensor, you can use the CLR button
to clean the screen. Each time you press the CLR button, all data on
screen will be erased and the search coil will go to the origin and will
be centered on screen.
You can magnify and reduce the target signals with the up and down
buttons.
The usage details mentioned above are common for all modes except
for the Ground Anomaly & Cavity mode. For Ground Anomaly & Cavity
mode, please read the next section.
Searching in Ground Anomaly & Cavity Mode
The most important thing you need to know before using this mode
is that this mode, different than the other modes, is not a ''detection''
mode but rather a ''survey'' mode. In this mode, the device will detect all
ground anomalies and cavities. Anomalies include, but are not limited to
the below: Different soil types within the same area, mineralized rocks,
disturbed ground etc. etc. Similarly the cavities can be listed as: Rooms,
tunnels, caves, cellars and graves underground. It is recommended that
this mode should not be used in random fields but only in places with
limited size where you suspect the presence of a cavity.
Before starting to use this mode, first be sure that the IPTU sensor is
properly calibrated.
Retune height will be shown on the height indicator. By lifting the coil
up to the retune height, pull the trigger back once and release. The
sweep height will be marked on the height indicator. Lower the coil to
the sweep height and start searching. While searching, the coil must
stay within the green area on the indicator. This is very important for
the device to perform correct computations.
In the Ground Anomaly & Cavity mode, all signals obtained from
ground with the movement of the coil (ground effect, ground anomaly,
cavity or metal), are indicated by painting on the screen. When you
first start searching, the 3D graph of the signal obtained from ground
appears bigger and stronger for a short period of time. Then it goes
back to normal. For the device to perform accurate computation in this
mode, it has to collect data for a certain period of time. Therefore, it is
recommended that you scan an area of minimum 5-10m² (54-108ft²)
around the suspected area.
In this mode, ground effect is indicated by yellow, metals and positive
hot rocks by red, and ground anomaly and cavity are indicated by gray
or blue color, based on the strength of the signal. In high mineralization,
the device may paint in red color just like in positive hot rocks.
In addition, the signals of targets painted in red are shown with a peak
facing upwards and the signals of targets painted in gray and blue are
shown with a pit facing downwards.
In this mode, the device does not provide any audio response. All
targets and signals are only shown visually on screen. For this reason,
you must follow the screen carefully while searching in this more. If
needed, you can zoom in and out on the screen.
If a metal or a positive hot rock is detected, the target ID will be
displayed on the ID bar at the top. The target ID bar in this mode is
white and not colored like the other modes.
NOTE :
In this mode, targets with IDs between 0-10 or above 97
indicate positive hot rocks. Sometimes mineralized and volcanic rocks
may generate such IDs and the presence of ground anomalies is very
common around them. Therefore, cavity signals obtained in such areas
may not always belong to real cavities.
The 3D signal graph will stay on screen as long as you do not move
the search coil just like in the other modes. Once you move the coil,
it will stay on screen for about 6 minutes and then disappear. As the
3D detection ground slides, the signals may fall outside the screen.
If you go back to the spots where you obtained the signals within 6
minutes, you can see the 3D graphs again.
SCANNING WITH IPTU SENSOR
Scan function works in non-motion modes only. The device will not
switch to scan screen in motion modes!
To be able to obtain the 3D graphs and the shapes of the detected
targets in the search screen with the IPTU sensor, you must perform
a scan. In order to do this, please follow the steps below :
a.
First, step away from the area where you get the target signal.
b.
Then, press the scan button once and release. The device will switch
to the scan screen. Different than the detection screen, the scan screen
is a white, chequered ground.
c.
Press and hold the clear button. When you see the coil centered on
the screen, release the button.
d.
By pressing and holding the scan button, swing the coil left to right
slowly and scan over the target, starting from a bit away from where
the signal is starting and until the coil is completely off the target
signal. The most important things you should pay attention to while
scanning are holding the search coil stable and parallel to the ground,
and slightly overlapping each sweep with no gaps in between. You
can see the gaps clearly on screen. If you are in the Ground Anomaly
& Cavity mode, keeping the search coil height within the green area
on the indicator is also very important.
NOTE :
Do not let go of the SCAN button as long as you hear the target
signal. If the SCAN button is released and pressed again, the shapes
will not be correct and there will be gaps between the start and finish
points of the scan.
Except for the Ground Anomaly & Cavity mode, the areas where the
device receives a signal will be painted in red. In the Ground Anomaly
& Cavity mode, on the other hand, when you first start scanning, the
Na druhej strane v režime Ground Anomaly & Cavity(pôdne
anomálie a dutiny), keď prvýkrát začnete skenovať, kresba bude na
krátky čas v červenej alebo modrej farbe nezávisle od cieľa. Potom
sa kresba vykoná podľa typu kovu rovnako ako na detekčnej
obrazovke.
TIP : Ak po dokončení skenovania mávnete cievkou cez okraje
skenovanej oblasti krátkymi pohybmi, vyčistíte miesta bez cieľových
signálov a zariadenie získa oveľa lepšie údaje.
e.
Po dokončení skenovania uvoľnite tlačidlo SCAN.
Ak chcete, môžete skenovať viacero cieľov súčasne podržaním tlačidla
SCAN alebo ich skenovať jeden po druhom tak, že zakaždým stlačíte a
uvoľníte tlačidlo SCAN. V každom prípade sa 3D grafy a tvary
všetkých cieľov objavia na jednej obrazovke s výsledkami.
POZNÁMKA: Ciele so silou signálu väčšou ako 40 na lište Drift-
Metal/Posun-Kov, umiestnenej v spodnej časti obrazovky (nie je
prítomná v režime pôdnych anomálii a dutín) poskytnú lepšie tvary.
Pre slabé signály so silou signálu menšou ako 40 môžete zvýšiť
citlivosť, aby ste zvýšili silu signálu.
POZNÁMKA: Ak na obrazovke skenovania skenujete cez ciele bez
stlačenia tlačidla SCAN, zariadenie vydá zvukovú odpoveď, ale nebude
kresliť na obrazovku. Ak v takom prípade stlačíte tlačidlo OK, zariadenie
prejde na obrazovku s výsledkami, ale obrazovka bude prázdna.
Načasovanie obnovenia obrazovky skenovania (údaje, ktoré sa
majú z obrazovky vymazať) je približne 8 minút pre bezpohybové a
pohybové režimy a približne 16 minút pre režim Ground Anomaly &
Cavity(pôdne anomálie a dutiny). Na obrazovke skenovania, ktorá
sa líši od detekčných obrazoviek, sa viditeľné časti obrazovky
vymažú.
DÔLEŽITÉ! Ak sa po prechode na obrazovku skenovania vyskytnú
silné posuny, najskôr jedenkrát potiahnite spúšťač smerom k sebe a
uvoľnite, aby ste zariadenie manuálne preladili. Ak sú posuny stále
prítomné, stlačením tlačidla BACK/SPÄŤ prejdite na detekčnú
obrazovku. Potom stlačte tlačidlo SETTINGS/NASTAVENIA, vyberte
možnosť AutoReset a upravte ju na úroveň, aby ste eliminovali
posuny. V prípade, že sú posuny stále prítomné, prejdite na
obrazovku skenovania, stlačte tlačidlo SETTINGS/NASTAVENIA a
znížte úroveň citlivosti.
DÔLEŽITÉ! Ak sa na obrazovke skenovania vyskytne preťaženie,
musíte stlačiť tlačidlo SETTINGS/NASTAVENIA a znížiť citlivosť.
Zmeranie oblasti hľadania pomocou skenovania:
Proces skenovania môžete použiť aj na zmeranie oblasti, v ktorej sa
nachádzate. Ak to chcete urobiť, stlačte a podržte tlačidlo SCAN,
začnite kráčať v priamom smere a skenujte bez otáčania cievkou.
Tento proces môžete použiť na všetkých poliach s rôznymi tvarmi,
kruhovými alebo štvorcovými. Po dokončení skenovania uvoľnite
tlačidlo SCAN a stlačte tlačidlo OK. Na obrazovke sa zobrazí prázdna
obrazovka s výsledkami. Znova stlačte tlačidlo OK a skenovaná
oblasť sa zobrazí lineárne. Pomocou mierky na obrazovke môžete
vidieť rozmery skenovanej oblasti s presnosťou 94 % - 97 %.
Ukážkový obrázok nižšie zobrazuje výsledkovú obrazovku
skenovanej oblasti s rozmermi 200 x 250 cm.
VYHĽADÁVANIE NA DETEKČNEJ OBRAZOVKE BEZ SENZORA IPTU
Počas vyhľadávania na detekčnej obrazovke bez senzora IPTU sa
všetky cieľové signály vrátane falošných signálov zobrazujú v okne
bežiaceho osciloskopu pomocou 2D grafov. Na základe typu kovu je
cieľový signál zobrazený v rovnakej farbe ako stupnica ID v hornej
časti. ID odmietnuté diskrimináciou sú označené sivou farbou a
zariadenie pre tieto ciele neposkytuje zvukovú odpoveď.
Po detekcii cieľa bude 2D graf cieľového signálu vrcholiť podľa sily
signálu. Pomocou funkcie zoom/priblíženie môžete zväčšiť alebo
zmenšiť graf signálu. Po detekcii cieľa sa lišta Drift-Metal/Posun-Kov
vyplní v smere METAL/KOV a hodnota ID sa zobrazí v okne ID cieľa v
spodnej časti a kurzorom na farebnej stupnici ID v hornej časti.
Počas vyhľadávania na tejto obrazovke sa môžu na lište Drift-Metal/
Posun-Kov vyskytnúť posuny v oboch smeroch. Keď sa pruh zaplní v
smere DRIFT/POSUN, na osciloskope sa nič nezobrazí a zariadenie
nebude produkovať žiadny zvuk. Na druhej strane, keď k posunu dôjde
v smere METAL/KOV, na osciloskope sa objaví plochý súvislý graf a
zariadenie vytvorí zvukovú odozvu.
V takom prípade najskôr potiahnite spúšťač smerom k sebe a uvoľnite,
aby ste zariadenie manuálne preladili. Ak sú posuny stále prítomné,
môžete na ich odstránenie použiť nastavenie stabilizátora. Pamätajte
však, že keď sa nastavenie stabilizátora zvýši, zariadenie môže
detekovať slabšie signály, ale už nebude schopné rozpoznať ciele, ak
podržíte cievku na mieste alebo budete prechádzať cez cieľ tam a späť.
