2. If you are still getting a constant signal, lower the unit's threshold
using the LOW (-) or HIGH (+) SENSITIVITY touch pads on the
control panel.

To update ground balancing

Anytime the detector detects a target, normal fluctuations in ground
conditions cause the arrow on the GROUND MONITOR dial to move
from its center 0 position slightly right or left; the Time Ranger™
SMART TRAC feature automatically adjusts to these minor vari-
ances usually within 15 to 20 seconds. If the arrow does not return
to its center 0 position after 15 to 20 seconds, or if at any time you
are unsure about the ground balance, do the following:
1. First, make sure that you are not standing over a detected target.
2. Press the ALL METAL SMART TRAC touch pad until gb appears
in the TARGET readout.
3. When rY appears in the TARGET readout, the unit is ready for
use.
TIP:
When ground balancing the unit, make sure that there is no
metal on top of or under the ground, otherwise you won't be
able to tell if the tone being emitted is caused by metal or
soil mineralization. If you think you are over metal, move to
another spot—observe your GROUND MONITOR carefully
when moving the search coil to another spot. If in the -
range, it is balancing for negative conditions; if in the +
range, it is balancing for positive ground conditions or
detecting a metal object.
NOTE:
Once you've adjusted for ground conditions, your settings will
not change until you turn the unit OFF, even if you go back and
forth between ALL METAL mode and DISCRIMINATION mode.
