Summary of Contents for Pyle PHMD72

  • Page 2 TERMINOLOGY The following terms are the common terminologies among the metal detector. Motion Mode Continuously moving the search coil is one of the circuit operation modes within the metal detector's built-in detection technologies. You have to move the search coil during detecting -- preferably in a overlapping 'painting' pattern.
  • Page 3 Iron Iron is a common metal, it’s usually not the dedicated detection target. Undesirable iron objects include iron nails, bolts, old cans, caps, etc. Valuable relics and sought after materials can also be composed of iron, such as old armaments, old armature, etc . So, it may be best to pay attention to everything you detect! Ferrous Metals It is the metal which is made of, or containing, iron.
  • Page 4 Assembly Open the packing box. Loosen the locking knob on the lower stem, and loosen the bolt. Insert the lower stem to the search coil, and tighten the connection. Don’t forget to insert the rubber gaskets on each side. Press down the locking spring (silver button) on the lower stem, and insert into the middle stem. Press down the silver button on the upper arm and insert it to the other side of the middle stem.
  • Page 5 Assembly... Coil the cable line of the search coil onto the tube pole arm, keep the cable moderate loose but wrapped around enough, so that the cable line won’t sway or dangle in the way, then insert the cable plug to the connector located on the lower right jack of the control box.

    Battery Slide open the battery tray cover, then insert the 4 x 'AA' batteries into the compartment as indicated by the polarity symbols marked inside the compartment. Align the two guide bars on the battery cover with the two guide grooves on the battery cavity. Be sure to observe proper polarity when inserting batteries.
  • Page 7 LCD Digital Display Screen & Control Mode Indication Cursor: indicates the four operation modes. Make changes through the MODE button. Target ID Legend: Indicates the wanted target metals. When detecting a metal target, the target ID cursor (upper scale) will appear on the LCD display. Target ID Cursor (upper scale): Scale consists of the 12 upper segments.
  • Page 8 LCD Digital Display Screen & Control Power Button: Power the unit ON and OFF Mode Button: Choose between the four operation modes: 1.ALL METAL: The detector will respond to all kinds of metals. 2. DISCRIM: Choose the type of "elimination" metals with the "+" and "-" buttons. Use this mode along with the 'ELIM' button to disregard metal detection for selected metals.
  • Page 9 *The metal detector also features a low battery indication cursor, this displays and warns you of low battery. Ground Balance This metal detector features ground balancing rotary control adjustment, which allows you to offset the effect of mineralization and unwanted frequency pickups which can alter and provide "false" metal detector readings.
  • Page 10 Motion Detection - 'Motion Mode' When detecting using the moving 'Motion Mode', you should sweep the search coil at a constant (fairly slow and steady) speed, and let the search coil remain parallel with the ground floor surface. Preferred height distance of the coil from the ground floor surface is about 1/2 inches (1.5cm) directly above the ground surface.
  • Page 11 Pinpoint your finding When there is a clear signal to show you the location of the buried target objects, you can make an “X” scan at this zone, generally the bottom of the intersection point is the target object. Pinpointing and PINPOINT Mode While searching in the motion mode, you should move the search coil evenly, consistently and persistently.
