• SENS (Sensitivity) Knob: Adjusts the detector's sensitivity to targets. Higher sensitivity increases detection depth but may also increase false signals in mineralized ground.
• DISC (Discrimination) Knob: Allows you to filter out unwanted metals (junk) and focus on specific target types. Turning the knob clockwise increases the discrimination level.
• TARGET ID (Power-On) Button: Press to power on/off the device. Also functions as a target identification button, providing a 3-color LED indicator for metal type.
• Indicador LED: Provides visual feedback on detected metal types (e.g., green for high-value, red for iron).
• Alarma sonora: Emits an audible signal through the headphones when a metal target is detected.

4.2 Funcionament bàsic

1. Encès: Twist the SENS knob clockwise until you hear a click and the device powers on.
2. Ajustar la sensibilitat: Start with a medium sensitivity setting. If the detector is unstable or produces too many false signals, reduce the sensitivity. Increase sensitivity for deeper detection in clear areas.
3. Set Discrimination: Turn the DISC knob to your desired level. For all metal detection, set it to the lowest discrimination. Increase it to filter out iron or other junk metals.
4. Sweep the Coil: Hold the detector with the search coil parallel to the ground, about 1-2 inches above the surface. Sweep the coil slowly from side to side in overlapping passes.
5. Indicació de l'objectiu: When a target is detected, the detector will emit an audible tone through the headphones and the LED indicator will light up, indicating the probable metal type.
6. Identificació: Un cop detectat un objectiu, defineix la seva ubicació movent lentament la bobina en un patró creuat sobre la zona. El senyal més fort indica el centre de l'objectiu.

5. Característiques clau

• IP68 Full Waterproof Design: The detector is fully submersible up to 40 meters (130 ft), making it suitable for underwater treasure hunting, beachcombing, and river exploration.

• Professional 8.6-inch Search Coil: The large, sensitive coil covers more ground and enhances detection depth for various metal types, including small objects.
• LED Alerts + Waterproof Headphones: Visual LED signals and included waterproof headphones provide clear target indications, even in dark or noisy environments.

6. Manteniment

Un manteniment adequat garanteix la longevitat i el rendiment del vostre detector de metalls:

• Neteja: After each use, especially in saltwater, rinse the search coil and shaft with fresh water. Wipe the control unit with a damp tela. No utilitzeu netejadors abrasius.
• Cura de la bateria: Remove the 9V battery if the detector will not be used for an extended period to prevent leakage.
• Emmagatzematge: Guardeu el detector en un lloc fresc i sec, allunyat de la llum solar directa i de temperatures extremes.
• Inspecció del cable: Regularly check the search coil cable for any signs of wear or damage.

7. Solució De Problemes

Si teniu problemes, consulteu els següents problemes i solucions habituals:

• Sense energia:
  • Check if the 9V battery is correctly inserted and fully charged.
  • Ensure the power knob is twisted fully clockwise until it clicks.
• False Signals/Unstable Operation:
  • Reduce the SENS (Sensitivity) setting.
  • Increase the DISC (Discrimination) setting to filter out unwanted metals or ground mineralization.
  • Ensure the search coil cable is tightly wrapped around the shaft and not swinging freely.
  • Avoid areas with high electromagnetic interference (e.g., power lines, other electronic devices).
• Sense detecció:
  • Increase the SENS (Sensitivity) setting.
  • Ensure the DISC (Discrimination) setting is not too high, potentially filtering out desired targets.
  • Verify the search coil cable is securely connected to the control unit.
