Portable Metal Detectors By:
III. OPERATION OF UNIT
After the satisfactory battery check:
a. Turn
MODE
switch from
BATT
to
RUN
b. Position detector in start position so magnetic field can align
itself correctly.
c. The meter needle will move to midscale after two full scale
deflections within about 4-6 seconds.
d. The unit will sound for a few seconds as it warms up and
creates a magnetic field.
e. The
POWER
lamp will switch from
RED
to
GREEN
and the
sound will stop*
f.
The unit will be ready to operate in about 2-3 more seconds.
*Under some extreme temperature change conditions the sound
may continue as intermittent “grunts” for another minute or two.
NOTE: Random movement of metal detector will cause the
detector’s magnetic field to scramble causing the unit to “trip.”
If the unit is false “tripping” due to a scrambled magnetic field,
turn it off and begin start-up process as stated previously.
