The frequency of the short tone indicates the type of object detected (high tones – non ferrous metal, low tone - ferrous metal). The number of tones can be specified by the user (the default is 4 tones). ООО «фирма «АКА», +7(495)621-0481, http://aka.2000.ru aka_md@mail.ru...

WARNING! When connecting the battery magazine to the device connector insure the battery is properly connected (polarity is indicated on the battery cartridge) and insure the voltage source is correct. In the case of incorrect polarity or improper voltage the device can be damaged ООО «фирма «АКА», +7(495)621-0481, http://aka.2000.ru aka_md@mail.ru...
On the rear panel of the device are the coil connector, on/off switch and the serial number of the device (fig. 3).

VOLUME [1 .. 9]. This setting adjusts the overall volume of the audio response from detected objects. Select the value based upon individual comfort preference. The current values of these parameters are displayed on the screen above the relative buttons (Fig. ООО «фирма «АКА», +7(495)621-0481, http://aka.2000.ru aka_md@mail.ru...
VDI previously set in the last ground balance. This may result in the loss or “invisibility” of large aluminum, silver and copper targets. If the ground setting is too positive the VDI will be offset positive and vice versa if the ground balance is negative. ООО «фирма «АКА», +7(495)621-0481, http://aka.2000.ru aka_md@mail.ru...

30-40 cm above the ground, 3 seconds, and then lower the coil to the ground. Follow the ground vector on the screen during the process. Its shape should be a strait, slightly trembling line, on the horizontal axis of the ground scale. ООО «фирма «АКА», +7(495)621-0481, http://aka.2000.ru aka_md@mail.ru...

This can be due to the uneven or lumpy nature of the soil. This can sometimes leads to false responses from the identification channel. In this situation the phase of the ground balance can vary by more than 3 ООО «фирма «АКА», +7(495)621-0481, http://aka.2000.ru aka_md@mail.ru...

In case of large temperature drops of more, than 15°С (compared to a normal air temp of 20C), we recommend that you perform electronic module and search coil ООО «фирма «АКА», +7(495)621-0481, http://aka.2000.ru aka_md@mail.ru...
The sector on the screen indicates that you are in a discriminatory setup. An Audio response will occur only on those objects that fall in the clear Hodograph area while targets that fall within the hatched area will not generate an audio response.

-86 to +86 respectively. This will act much the same as “all metal” accept with the elimination of the “hot rocks”. You may also use the algorithm suppression “Disc. of Hot rocks “(see page 15) . ООО «фирма «АКА», +7(495)621-0481, http://aka.2000.ru aka_md@mail.ru...
As accurately as possible, while maintaining the distance between the ground and the coil, scan the object backwards. Determine on line A the location (coordinate) where the tone of the sound was the highest. Fig.12 ООО «фирма «АКА», +7(495)621-0481, http://aka.2000.ru aka_md@mail.ru...
10. If the device detects an object with a "questionable" non-ferrous signal (high tone) and it has a rating over 10 then using the S-Algorithm can help to identify these type targets. ООО «фирма «АКА», +7(495)621-0481, http://aka.2000.ru aka_md@mail.ru...
14 kHz - Frequency optimized for small and medium-sized coins especially when the latter are located on edge. This frequency is the best choice for hunting on the saltwater beach. ООО «фирма «АКА», +7(495)621-0481, http://aka.2000.ru aka_md@mail.ru...
Coil with the “HR”, the reaction to them is often confused with reaction to large copper or silver coins. This algorithm helps to distinguish between these two types of responses and to eliminate the audio response to the Hot Rocks. ООО «фирма «АКА», +7(495)621-0481, http://aka.2000.ru aka_md@mail.ru...

Accumulation [1..4]. Option allows you to store the display from 1 to 4 hodograph images simultaneously. Displaying multiple hodographs may be useful, for example, in the analysis of responses from the same target while scanning from different angles or directions ООО «фирма «АКА», +7(495)621-0481, http://aka.2000.ru aka_md@mail.ru...

Remember that the default settings are not an absolute, but offered only as a starting point to assist your search. Experiment and we hope that in the near future you will make your own comfortable and effective program ООО «фирма «АКА», +7(495)621-0481, http://aka.2000.ru aka_md@mail.ru...
It should be noted that the hodograph examples given are idealized and do not take into account the effect ground mineralization. ООО «фирма «АКА», +7(495)621-0481, http://aka.2000.ru aka_md@mail.ru...
Also try not to make sudden movements of the coil horizontally. Optimal scanning speed is 40-50 cm/s. Each pass of the sensor should overlap the previous one. ООО «фирма «АКА», +7(495)621-0481, http://aka.2000.ru aka_md@mail.ru...

Due to effect of the ground valuable targets, whose vector angle is close to that of hot rocks, can being missed. This risk is virtually eliminated by using the algorithm DHR instead. As you know, a particular problem for induction metal detectors is the identification of flat ООО «фирма «АКА», +7(495)621-0481, http://aka.2000.ru aka_md@mail.ru...
The main job of identifying is performed by the processor. Examples of the hodographs for the same cap/stopper using the S-mode algorithm is shown in Fig. 18. S-Mode Algorithm Fig. 18 ООО «фирма «АКА», +7(495)621-0481, http://aka.2000.ru aka_md@mail.ru...

As can be seen in Figure 19, the S-type algorithm curve has hardly changed. Fig. 19 Examples of hodographs for some objects are shown in Fig. 20-25. Fig. 20 Fig. 21 Fig. 22 Fig. 23 ООО «фирма «АКА», +7(495)621-0481, http://aka.2000.ru aka_md@mail.ru...
Due to the particular interaction between the search coil and these types of targets certain difficulties arise. This is due to the very narrow difference between the vector angle of these targets and those of the ground signal. Fig. 26 ООО «фирма «АКА», +7(495)621-0481, http://aka.2000.ru aka_md@mail.ru...

(plastic bag, full-time protection, etc.). In the case of searching in trashy areas it is sufficient to reduce the sensitivity of the ST channel. ООО «фирма «АКА», +7(495)621-0481, http://aka.2000.ru aka_md@mail.ru...
And at the limit of sensitivity in the ground, it may suddenly sound like a deep copper coin with VDI +85. This is not unique to your device, but for all other devices of this type. ООО «фирма «АКА», +7(495)621-0481, http://aka.2000.ru aka_md@mail.ru...
