ACCEPT 'window'. This can give the impression that the detector is not
functioning correctly. It is simply remedied by switching to the highlighted
REJECT position.

OPERATING IN NON MOTION MODE

Setting The Ground Control On Inland Sites
Prior to searching, the detector must first be set to ignore the signal due to the ground mineralisation.
To do this find an area of ground thought to be free of metal objects and check using MOTION
mode.
Then proceed as follows:
1.
Select NON MOTION on the trigger switch (O in diagram 7) and set the GROUND control
to position 3 (highlighted).
2.
Select GROUND on the METER switch located directly beneath the centre of the meter.
3.
Select INLAND on the GROUND switch located next to the GROUND CONTROL.
4.
Turn the SENSITIVITY control to maximum (or audio threshold) if using headphones.
5.
Position the search head two to three inches above the ground and RETUNE by pulling trigger
switch towards your body.
6.
Lower the head to the ground whilst looking at the meter. If the meter moves to the right
followed by a recovery (back to the central position) adjust the GROUND control clockwise
about one division. If the meter moves to the left, followed by a recovery to the central position
adjust the GROUND control anticlockwise one division.
7.
Repeat 5 and 6 using progressively smaller adjustments of the GROUND control each time
until no meter movement occurs as the head is raised and lowered.
8.
Having done this reduce the SENSITIVITY until the audio threshold is comfortable and select
METER DISC on the METER switch. Ensure the head is at the search height and RETUNE
on the trigger switch to centralise the meter needle.
9.
The GROUND control is now set and searching can commence.
Identifying Targets
Having located a target, hold the search head to one side of the target and retune the detector. Now
sweep the head slowly across the target and note the response of the meter. Ferrous objects give a
meter reading into the red, non-ferrous produce a reading into the green or no movement, (deep
ferrous objects can also give no reading). An idea of the depth of the target can be made from the
