BASIC OPERATION

Metal detector is used outdoors. There is too much metals indoors, and all
kinds of electrical equipment that will bring interference signals. So it is not
fit for using the detector indoors.
Field detection is more complicated, the composition of the regional soil,
the component, size, shape and the oxidation degree of the underground
metals will all affect the detection results. This chapter is only the general
steps of the field detection. You should operate again and again, accumulate
experience to achieve good results.
1. Turn On
Hold the detector, keep the search coil be away from the ground. Press
the power button, the detector will sound two beep tones, and all the LCD
patterns are lighted at minutes. And the detector keeps the operation state
of the shutdown.
2. Set the operation mode
In general, the user could choose the ALL METAL mode. At this time, the
detector will make identification response to all kinds of metals.
3. Choose the sensitivity
The user always expects to set the sensitivity higher. However, in the higher
sensitivity range, the detector will be sensitive to the electromagnetic
interference that comes from the power lines or cables around, and it will do
abnormal reaction to the mineralization soil or electrical conductivity soil.
If you move the search coil in the detection area, and the detector sends an
unstable false signal, please decrease the sensitivity.
If you operate the detector with your partner at the same time, please pay
attention to keep more than 10 meters away from each other, and decrease
the sensitivity appropriately.
4. Move the search coil
When detecting, move the search coil at a constant speed, not unsteadily. Let
the search coil be parallel with and about 1/2 inch from the surface, not to
swing it like a pendulum, high and low above the ground.
Most valuable metal objects will send repeatable signals. If the signal isn't
repeatable, it's mostly a false signal. When there is a clear sound instructing
the buried targets, you could read out the approximate target type and depth
on the LCD screen. And you could also move the search coil above the target
objects fast,in order to get a more stable signal.
