vi. Signal Meter/Battery Check
This is a visual indication of the signal strength giving the experienced user more information about the
target. This is particularly useful for pinpointing. When the BATT CHECK is pressed, the meter will indicate
condition of the batteries. If the meter reading falls below the green band, the batteries should be replaced.
vii. Boost Hi/Normal
For general detecting work, NORMAL mode should be selected.
When increased sensitivity to deep objects is required, then the setting HI should be used. However, if
false signalling occurs due to soil mineralisation, revert to the NORMAL setting.
OPERATING YOUR CS-5MXP
Check the batteries are in good condition prior to searching. Frequently check the battery condition during the
search. Rechargeables give little warning of failure so ensure they are fully charged prior to a long period of
searching or carry a fresh set with you. (See Batteries).
The unit may operate with reduced sensitivity for a period after indicating 'flat' batteries. However the batteries
should be replaced or recharged at the first opportunity.
Use headphones when possible. Not only do they extend the battery life, but they also cut out extraneous noise.
(It is instructive to bury some objects in a clear patch of soil and note the response when swept at different rates
with DISCRIMINATE at various levels). Large pieces of iron are difficult to ignore and may give confusing signals.
An aid to determine whether the target is iron or not is to go into an all metal mode either by turning the
DISCRIMINATE off or simply by pressing the PINPOINT button. Iron objects will generally give a stronger more
positive signal than good objects.
When operating on the beach the all metal mode may give a response to the beach itself. If this is the case operate
the unit with the DISCRIMINATE level set to the point at which it is ignored.
If in doubt as to whether a target is good or not - dig it. Your knowledge of how the detector responds will increase
each time and soon make your more sure.
