Overload Warning

If  a  metal  object  or  highly  magnetic  soil  are  too  close  to  the  searchcoil,  the

detector will “overload.”

” will appear on the screen and the detector will make a rapid, repeating

mid-tone warning sound.

Overload  will  not  harm  the  detector,  but  the  detector  will  not  function  under

these conditions.
Raise the searchcoil to search at a greater distance, or move to a different location.
Unit of Measure (U/M)

The depth indicator in Pinpoint Mode can display either centimeters (CM) or

inches (IN).  

The default unit of measure is centimeters (CM).
To change the unit of measure:

1. Start with the detector turned OFF.

2. Press-and-hold

.

3. Press 

.

Continue to hold down

.

4.   Quickly release and then immediately press-and-hold 

again to toggle

between CM and IN.

5.  When the desired U/M appears on the screen, release 

.

The detector will now operate with the desired U/M, even after the detector

has been powered down.

To change the U/M again, repeat the procedure.

Memory

To store the current settings (SENS, DISC and VOL):

1. Start with the detector turned ON.

2. Select all desired settings.

3. Press-and-hold 

for 8 seconds.

4.

When the three menu selections appear at the

bottom of the screen, release 

When  you  turn  the  detector  ON  for  future  use,  your  detector  will  resume

operation with your programmed settings.
Reset

To return all detector settings to the factory defaults:

1. Start with the detector turned OFF.

2. Press-and-hold 

.

3. Press 

.

4. Release 

.

The 2-digit number displayed is the software revision number.

Adjusting the Armrest

The armrest may be moved forward or backwards by removing the single screw

and nut, and then repositioning the 2-piece armrest.  Users with shorter arms

may find the armrest more comfortable in the forward position.  In order to move

the armrest backwards, the plastic plug must be removed from the aluminum

tube.

Armrest Strap

(optional accessory) 

The strap is available for purchase as a separate accessory.  Some users prefer

to use the strap when swing the detector vigorously, in order to hold the detector

secure against the arm. 

The detector can also be used without the strap, with no compromise to detector

balance and stability under most conditions.
