MOVING THE DETECTOR'S PROBE
1. When searching, it is best to move the detector from side to side,
approximately 1 - 5 cm above the surface being searched. The probe should be
guided along an arc with a radius of 7-8 cm, parallel to the ground.
CAUTION!
cause false readings of the detector.
2. The movement should be slow and at a constant speed.
3. When a target under the ground surface is found and identified, the detector
will emit a single beep and the target found icon will flash. The LCD display will
also show the reading value and the depth at which the target was detected.
4. If the detector does not detect any object, make sure that the operating mode
is set correctly and that the probe is moved correctly.
5. The detector responds with a signal when it detects valuable metal objects. If
the signal does not repeat after moving the probe over the target several
times, it is probably scrap metal.
6. False signals can be caused by contaminated ground, electrical interference, or
large irregular pieces of metal. False signals are usually intermittent or not
repeated.
7. In areas where there is scrap metal, you can set the Discrimination (DISC)
number to 50. In this case, most nails and small pieces of iron will be
eliminated.
FACTORS AFFECTING OBJECT DETECTION:
It is difficult to obtain an accurate detection result. Factors that affect the quality of
readings are:
• the angle of the target buried in the ground,
The probe movement should not resemble a pendulum. This may
