SEARCHING AND METAL DETECTION
PINPOINTING
After the ground balance and sensitivity settings are adjusted, you can start searching by lifting the
search coil 5cm. above the ground and sweeping it right and left, keeping it parallel to the ground.
NOTE: You may have to re-adjust the sensitivity and ground balance settings while searching because
as you change your location there may be changes in the ground or surrounding electromagnetic
interferences as well. Therefore, you may need to repeat the above processes should your device starts
receiving interference or noise.
To avoid missing smaller and deeper targets, sweep the search coil both from right to left and
left to right over each area you are scanning, slightly overlapping the sweeps as you move
forward.
When the device detects a metal, it
will produce an audible tone. If the
device is in discrimination mode,
the LEDs on the handle will light up
at the same time.
For pinpointing the exact location of the target, move the
search coil over the target with short and faster/slower
sweeps.
