9. Device adjustment and preparation for work
The metal detector is ready for use when the battery is charged (the BAT LOW indicator is not
lit up).
Before the initial usage, please charge the battery for minimum of 8 hours, by using the
automatic battery charger available in the standard pack, according to the description in 11.
The built-in battery ensures up to 48 working hours without recharging.
After the metal detector is assembled according to the description in 7, it can be turned on via
turning the VOLUME/POWER knob from left (position OFF) to right.
This knob also serves for adjusting the desired audio volume control.
The GROUND switch is used for switching between the manual and the automatic mode for
eliminating the ground interference, according to the description in 8.2.
When choosing the manual ground balance, the device should be balanced according to the
description in 8.3.
The discrimination level and depth of discrimination (for distinguishing the metals) is adjusted
with the DISCR knob according to the description in 8.5.
DISCR has to be turned to “0” level, if aiming at detection of all metals. DISCR has to be
turned from “6” to “10” level, when aiming at ignoring the ferrous metals (detecting only non-
ferrous metals). The higher the level, the better ignoring of the heavily corroded iron is
achieved, and the metals are discriminated at a greater depth (depth of discrimination).
And lastly, the THRESHOLD knob adjusts the audio threshold to the desired level.
With this, the metal detector is adjusted and ready for work.
