There are many metallic objects inside

the house (e.g. nails in the ﬂoor, reinforcing in the walls) that will result in overloading the detector’s electronics. There may also be interference from TV sets and other household appliances. In this environment the detector may give erratic performance and numerous false signals.

If the detector emits an overload sound

and displays OL (Error Messages, pg. 61) move the coil away from the source of the overload.

It is best to only turn the detector on when outside, away from sources of electromagnetic disturbance.

Press POWER

A short start up sequence will display and a tune will be heard.

Once on, the detector will be in automatic detection. There will be no numeric reading until a metal object is detected.

Overloading is not harmful to the detectors electronics.

Many of the screen pictures in this manual that refer to both models, show the X-Terra 50 display only.
