ADX100 is a motion detector, which means that metallic target detection can only be carried 
out when the search coil is moving. 
 
When you detect an area it is important to sweep with the head as close as possible to the 
ground with wide movements, but not making contact with the ground. 
Keep the head parallel to the ground following the relief as much as possible. 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 
 

 

To pinpoint a target, use quick crossed sweeps, 
with the coil over  the target taking note of where    
the strongest audio signal is received. 
The exact location of the target is under the centre line 
of the search coil from front to back and can then be 
determined by ‘x ing’.
