FAULT

SOLUTION

 

 

 

 

 

Detector does not

Check the state of the batteries and battery connections.

 

start at all

Ensure battery pack lid is completely closed.

 

 

• If using alkaline batteries, check whether they have been loaded in the

 

 

 

right polarity and correct if necessary.

 

 

 

 

 

Detector starts, but it

Check the state of the batteries. If necessary, try starting with batteries

 

switches off by itself

 

known to be in good condition.

 

 

• Detector may be too hot. Allow detector to cool down in a shaded area.

 

 

• Try starting the detector with search coil disconnected. If the detector

 

 

 

starts normally, check the state of the coil cable. If it is damaged, replace

 

 

 

the coil. Otherwise return detector for repairs.

 

 

 

 

 

No sound

Unplug the headphones. If there is sound in the speaker but not in the

 

 

 

headphones, check the headphones and their connection.

 

 

• Check the AUDIO menu’s Max Limit (a setting of 0 is silent).

 

 

• If there is no sound in the speaker or the headphones but the detector

 

 

 

appears to work normally otherwise, return the detector for repairs.

 

 

 

 

 

Erratic Noises

Press the NOISE CANCEL shortcut button or manually select a quiet

 

 

 

channel in the Advanced Main Menu > Options > NOISE.

 

 

Reduce the Sensitivity.

 

 

• Change the orientation of the coil to the vertical plane and rotate to see if

 

 

 

there is a position where the noise is reduced. If this is the case, it means

 

 

 

that there is a source of interference nearby which must be avoided.

 

 

• Check battery charge and battery connections.

 

 

• Ensure coil connector is tightened firmly.

 

 

• Check headphones and their connection.

 

 

• Check for sand or grit between coil cover and coil.

 

 

 

 

 

No Target Response

Ensure the detector is turned on.

 

 

• Check headphones and their connection.

 

 

Check coil connection.

 

 

• Check discrimination level. No signal will be given if target is within black

 

 

 

area of screen.

Mine lab Explorer IITM, P0591-A specifications

The Minelab P0591-A, commonly known as the Explorer II, is an advanced metal detector that appeals to hobbyists and professionals alike. Renowned for its cutting-edge technology and robust features, the Explorer II sets a high standard for metal detecting equipment.

One of the standout features of the Explorer II is its Multi-Frequency Technology. This groundbreaking system allows the detector to operate on multiple frequencies simultaneously, enhancing its ability to detect a wide range of metal objects. This versatility means users can efficiently find everything from small coins to larger artifacts, all while minimizing the risk of missing valuable targets.

The Explorer II is also equipped with Smartfind discrimination technology. This feature provides users with a visual representation of the detected signals, allowing them to distinguish between different types of metals. The LCD screen displays a target ID, enabling the detectorist to make informed decisions about whether to dig or not based on the target’s identity. This capability not only saves time but also enhances the overall efficiency of treasure hunting.

Another significant characteristic of the Explorer II is its customizable settings. The detector comes with various pre-set detecting modes for different environments, such as trashy urban areas or open fields rich in history. Users can also manipulate sensitivity settings and discrimination levels, tailoring the device to their specific needs and preferences. This level of customization makes the Explorer II a versatile tool suitable for various terrains and conditions.

The build quality of the Explorer II is also commendable. Designed for durability, it can withstand the rigors of outdoor use while remaining lightweight and user-friendly. The adjustable shaft allows for comfortable use for users of all heights, and the ergonomic design ensures that long treasure hunting sessions are less fatiguing.

Battery life is another area where the Explorer II excels. The device operates on a rechargeable battery, providing extended use without the need for frequent changes. This capacity for prolonged operation makes it ideal for long days out in the field.

In summary, the Minelab P0591-A Explorer II is a sophisticated metal detector that combines innovative technology with user-friendly features. Its Multi-Frequency Technology, Smartfind discrimination, customization options, and durable build make it a top choice for those serious about metal detecting. Whether searching for coins in local parks or exploring historical sites, the Explorer II provides users with the tools necessary for a successful treasure hunting experience.
