The detector requires a single 9-volt ALKALINE battery (battery not included).
Do not use ordinary Zinc Carbon batteries.
Do not use “Heavy Duty” batteries.
Rechargeable batteries can also be used.
If you wish to use rechargeable batteries, we recommend using a
Nickel Metal Hydride rechargeable battery.
The battery compartment is located on the
back side of the housing.
Slide the battery door to the side and remove
it to expose the battery compartment.
For easy battery removal, push down firmly
on the bottom of the battery (see illustration).
BATTERY LIFE
Expect 20 to 25 hours of life from a 9-volt
alkaline battery.
Rechargeable batteries provide about 8
hours of usage per charge.
BATTERY INDICATOR
The battery icon at the top-right of the display has three vertical segments and
an outline segment.
The amount of battery voltage for an ALKALINE battery is indicated as follows:
3 vertical segments illuminated:
8.1 volts or more
2 vertical segments illuminated:
7.1 to 8.0 volts
1 vertical segment illuminated:
6.5 to 7.0 volts
No vertical segments illuminated: 6.2 to 6.4 volts
Outline Flashing: 6.1 volts or less
SPEAKER VOLUME AND BATTERY CHARGE
You may notice the speaker volume drop while one battery segment is illuminated.
With the outline flashing, low speaker volume will be very apparent.
BATTERIES
Optional Arm Strap
Armrest Strap
(optional accessory)
The strap is available for purchase as a separate
accessory. Some users prefer to use the strap
when swinging the detector vigorously in order to
hold the detector secure against the arm.
The detector can also be used without the strap,
with no compromise to detector balance and
stability under most conditions.

IRON IDENTIFICATION
Variable Iron Identification & Discrimination
The Eurotek Pro allows the user not only to discriminate iron targets, but
classifies them by size and signal strength. Ferrous objects will have a Target-
ID between 1 and 39.
To eliminate all ferrous objects from detection, set DISC = 39.
Alternatively, the user can selectively eliminate ferrous objects less than a given
Target-ID. For example, to eliminate ferrous objects with an ID of less than 15,
choose a DISC setting of 14.
Volume settings 10-20 also allow the user to change the volume response of
ferrous metals.
Iron-Indicator
The IRON icon flashes momentarily when ferrous objects are present.
The IRON icon flashes independent of the discrimination setting. The user
cannot disable this icon.
Relic hunters will frequently seek out iron-laden sites as good prospective
treasure-hunting sites. The Eurotek Pro Iron-Indicator is intended for this
purpose. The indicator alerts the user to the presence of iron, even if iron has
been discriminated out. Relic hunters can search free of iron-target audio, yet
still be alerted to the presence of ferrous objects.
PINPOINT MODE
Press-and-hold
to enter the no-motion Pinpoint Mode of operation.
“PP” is momentarily displayed on the screen.
In Pinpoint Mode:
• No searchcoil motion is required.
Any metal object in the searchcoil's field of detection will induce an audible
hum, regardless of whether the searchcoil is in motion or motionless.
• Target-ID is not possible.
• Discrimination is not possible.
All metal targets are detected, regardless of the DISC setting.
• Audio feedback is V.C.O.
All targets induce V.C.O. audio, regardless of the DISC setting.
• Target depth is displayed.
Pinpoint is typically used to precisely identify the location of an object previously
detected in the Discrimination Mode.
The Pinpoint Mode can also be useful in tracing the outline of larger objects. Since
searchcoil motion is not required, very slow movement around an object can
reveal an outline of its shape.
While not intended as a continuous-search mode, Pinpoint can be used in this
fashion if the user keeps the button depressed.
