3 TERMINOLOGY The following terms are used throughout the manual, and are standard terminology among detectorists. ELIMINA TION - Reference to a metal being "eliminated" means that the detector will not emit a tone, nor light up an indicator , when a specified object passes through the coil’ s detection field. DISCRIMINA TION - When the ...

Adjusting the Arm Rest Most people will find the standard position of the arm rest very comfortable. V ery large forearms and short forearms (particularly children’ s arms), can be accommodated by moving the arm rest forward. The arm rest is adjustable to three positions. T o adjust, remove the screw from the underside, then press the silver butt ...

10 ALL MET AL MODE (Default Operation) The detector defaults to ALL MET AL mode after powering on. In this mode, all types of metals will be detected. An object’ s PROBABLE identification is indicated by the arrows at the top of the display . In addition, the PROBABLE depth of coin-sized objects is indicated by the rectangular segment indicators ...

Objects are cumulatively eliminated as the level of discrimination increases. NOTCH MODE T o selectively eliminate a category from detection within the metallic spectrum, use the NOTCH M ...

The undesirable object is eliminated from detection The ZAP control is easy to use in the field. As you are detecting, and encounter an object which you wish to eliminate from detection, simply press the ...

13 AUDIO T ARGET IDENTIFICA TION (motion modes only) While the LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) is very accurate in identifying buried objects, the user in the field does not always maintain the display screen in his field of vision. Therefore, we have incorporated an audio feedback mechanism to alert the user to the nature of buried objects. This audi ...

15 DEPTH AND T ARGET DISPLA Y (motion modes only) DEPTH INDICA TOR: The Depth Indicator is accurate for coin-sized objects. It indicates the depth of the target, in inches. Large and irregularly-shaped objects will yield less reliable depth readings When passing over an object, the depth indicator will light up and stay illuminated until another ob ...

16 ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE The principle use for the Sensitivity Control is to eliminate Electromagnetic Interference (EMI). A hobby metal detector is an extremely sensitive device; the searchcoil creates its own magnetic field and acts like an antenna. If your detector beeps erratically when the searchcoil is motionless, the unit is probably ...

17 IN THE FIELD TECHNIQUES (motion modes only) When pinpointing a target, try drawing an “X”, as illustrated, over where the tone is induced. PINPOINTING IN MOTION MODES Accurate pinpointing takes practice and is best accomplished by “X-ing” the target area. 1. Once a buried target is indicated by a good tone response, continue sweeping the ...

18 Swing the searchcoil slowly , overlapping each sweep as you move forward. It is important to sweep the coil at a consistent speed over the ground as you search. After identifying a target, your sweep technique can help in identifying both the location and the nature of the target. If you encounter a weak signal, try moving the coil in short, rap ...

19 IN THE FIELD TECHNIQUES (motion modes only) Y ou may encounter some false signals as you proceed. False signals occur when the detector beeps, but no metal target is present. False signals can be induced by electromagnetic interference, oxidation, or highly mineralized ground soils. If the detector beeps once, but does not repeat the signal with ...

20 IN THE FIELD TECHNIQUES - Pinpoint Mode GROUND BALANCING Before using the PINPOINT mode, it is necessary to ‘Ground Balance” your detector , this ground balancing adjustment offsets the effects of minerals and slats in the ground. T o GROUND BALANCE your detector: 1. Using the ALL-MET AL mode, find a patch of ground which is free of metal ob ...

21 IN THE FIELD TECHNIQUES - Pinpoint Mode As your search takes you to different areas, verify the ground balance setting peri- odically using the above procedure. Within a geographical area, ground condi- tions can change. V arying elevation, proximity to water, and concentration of rock, sand or clay can all affect ground condition and sometimes ...
