extinguish when the DEPTH symbol will light, the ellipses indicate the
probable depth or the signal strength at this time.
The contents (surface, 2, 4, 6, 8) inside the five ellipses are just visual
levels for reference.
Note:
- If the detecting pauses for about 5 seconds, the arrow will disappear.
- If an arrow points to a coin denomination, the detector might be
detecting either a coin or another type of metal (such as jewelry,
tokens, medals, or even junk metal) of similar size and type to the coin.
- Since the indications are approximations, the detector is only a visual
reference to help you decide if an item is worth investigating.
GOLD Range
Iron Foil
Target is probably iron or foil. Some oxidized
iron might register somewhere within the
SILVER range.
5¢ or Nickel Target is probably 5¢ or a nickel. Some small
gold rings might register within this range.
Pull Tab
Target is probably a pull tab of an aluminium
can. Some small gold rings might register
within this range might register within PULL
TAB category.
S-Caps
Target is probably a type of metal like bottle
cap with whorl. Some medium sized gold rings
might register within this category.
1¢ or Penny
Target might be a zinc penny or a copper coin.
Some large rough gold items might register
within 1¢ category.
SILVER Range 1¢ Penny or
25¢ Quarter
Target is probably silver coin, 25¢ or 1¢. Some
large aluminium coin might register within 1¢
25¢ category.
TONES
If the detector is set to the ALL METAL target mode, it sounds a single
tone when it detects any type of metal. If you set the detector to the
DISC or NOTCH modes, the built in audio identification system
sounds a unique audio tone for each of three categories of metal. This
makes it easier to identify the metal being detected.
Tone
Detects
Low Tone
Foil, nails, bottle caps and/or nickels
Medium Tone
Pull tabs, zinc and/or copper items
High Tone
Brass and/or silver items
Note:
- When you set the detector to DISC or NOTCH mode, the detector
sounds a medium or high tone when it detects highly oxidized iron. An
arrow appears in medium or high tone area.
- Depending on the quality, about 15% percent of gold rings cause the
detector to sound a medium tone.
TOUCH PADS AND CONTROLS
MODE
Allows the operator to switch in 3 operating modes of
following settings (DISC-ALL METAL-NOTCH-DISC-)
for personal preferences
SET
Press and hold the SET touch pad to select the SENS
display symbol or DISC/NOTCH display symbol in LCD.
ACC/REJ
Function in NOTCH mode only, permits acceptance or
rejection of specific targets to establish discrimination
notches.
- / +
Used to increase or decrease the sensitivity and the
range of discrimination.
GND TRAC
Used to track the buried metal target and to be applied
in ALL-METAL mode only. It must be pressed once
ALL-METAL mode is selected.
VOL Control and
ON /OFF switch
Functions as Power ON /OFF switch and can be used
to adjust the sound level.
GND BAL Control:
Used to offset the effect of mineralization in ALL-
METAL mode. Detection should begin with the GND
BAL knob set to P region.
OPERATION
Turning on the Detector
Rotate VOL away from OFF POWER to the desired position. The unit
displays all symbols and Metal Icons on the LCD screen. The detector
sounds low, medium, high tones respectively. About 2 seconds late,
the detector enters stand-by state, the LCD screen will display DISC,
