BASIC OPERATION

POWERING UP

Press the ON touchpad.

All display indicators will illuminate momentarily.

The 4-segment pyramid-shaped Sensitivity Indicator will illuminate on the left side of the display. The 4-segment pyramid indicates that the detector is at full sensitivity.

When an object is detected, the object will be identified by a tone, a display indicator, and a depth indication.

A two-minute “warm-up” is required before the detector reaches full sensitivity.

UNDERSTANDING THE DISPLAY

The LEFT SIDE of the display has a dual purpose:

●1 SENSITIVITY LEVEL

Upon power-up, and after

pressing either the up- or down-sensitivity pads, the

pyramid-shaped display

indicates the detector’s sensitivity level. The sensitivity level can be

changed using the up- and down-pads.

At maximum sensitivity, the unit can detect a coin-sized metal object buried about 6" beneath the surface; larger objects can be detected much deeper.

●2 DEPTH INDICATION

After detecting an object, the

pyramid-shaped display indicates the approximate depth of buried, coin-sized objects.

Objects at or near the surface will illuminate the single segment at the top of the scale.

More deeply buried objects will illuminate more segments, indicating depths of 2, 4, or 6 inches, as identified to the left of the display.

The depth indicator is not accurate for large, or irregularly shaped, objects. However, the scale will provide relative depth indications for larger objects; a given object will induce deeper readings the farther it is from the search coil.
