3 TERMINOLOGY The following terms are used throughout the manual, and are standard terminology among detectorists. ELIMINA TION Reference to a metal being "eliminated" means that the detector will not emit a tone, nor light up an indicator , when a specified object passes through the coil’ s detection field. DISCRIMINA TION When the det ...

10 DEF AUL T OPERA TION The detector defaults to ALL MET AL mode after powering on. In this mode, all types of metals will be detected. An object’ s probable identification is indicated by the arrows at the top of the display . In addition, the probable depth of coin-sized objects is indicated by the large numeric indicator in the center of the d ...

11 To increase the level of discrimination, press the DISCRIMINA TION ▲ touch pad. Each time the ▲ pad is depressed, an additional "R" will appear , thus eliminating from detection the objects which fall into the corresponding categories. To decrease the level of discrimination, press the DISCRIMINA TION ▼ touch pad. Each time the ? ...

12 BASIC OPERA TION continued ZAP The ZAP control is a convenient way to eliminate a known undesirable metal object from detection. To demonstrate the ZAP control: 1) Set the detector in All-Metal Mode Note: ZAP functions in all modes, but is best demonstrated first from the All-Metal Mode. 2) Pass the search coil over an undesirable object. 3) Not ...

13 AUDIO T ARGET IDENTIFICA TION While the LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) is very accurate in identifying buried objects, the user in the field does not always maintain the display screen in his field of vision. Therefore, we have incorporated an audio feedback mechanism to alert the user to the nature of buried objects. This audio feedback system fi ...

14 DEPTH AND T ARGET DISPLA Y READING THE DISPLA Y The Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) shows the PROBABLE identification of the targeted metal, as well as the PROBABLE depth of the target, in inches. The detector will register a repeated, unchanging target identification when a buried target has been located and identified. If, upon repeated passes ov ...

15 ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE The principle use for the Sensitivity Control is to eliminate Electromagnetic Interference (EMI). A hobby metal detector is an extremely sensitive device; the search coil creates its own magnetic field and acts like an antenna. If your detector beeps erratically when the search coil is motionless, the unit is probabl ...

16 IN THE FIELD TECHNIQUES When pinpointing a target, try drawing an “X”, as illustrated, over where the tone is induced. PINPOINTING Accurate pinpointing takes practice and is best accomplished by “X-ing” the target area. 1. Once a buried target is indicated by a good tone response, continue sweeping the coil over the target in a narrowing ...

17 Swing the search coil slowly , overlapping each sweep as you move forward. It is important to sweep the coil at a consistent speed over the ground as you search. After identifying a target, your sweep technique can help in identifying both the location and the nature of the target. If you encounter a weak signal, try moving the coil in short, ra ...

18 angles, you many have encountered multiple objects. If you are new to the hobby , you may want to dig all targets at first. With practice in the field, you will learn to better discern the nature of buried objects by the nature of the detector’ s response. Y ou may encounter some false signals as you proceed. False signals occur when the detec ...
