  • Page 3: Assembly

    ASSEMBLY Assembly is easy and requires no tools. Position the lower stem (the straight tube) with the silver button toward the back. Using the bolt and knurled knob, attach the search coil to the plastic extension protruding from the lower stem. Press the button on the upper end of the lower stem,...

    QUICK-START DEMONSTRATION (continued) Wave the Nail over the Search Coil a. The Nail will not be detected. b. The Nail has been "Discriminated Out." VII. Press the “DISCRIMINATION-▲” touchpad twice. Three “R”s are now displayed. VIII. Wave all objects over the Search Coil The Nail and Pull-Tab will not be detected.

  • Page 8: Basic Operation

    MOTION and NO-MOTION MODES Depending on the operation mode selected, the Titan 3000 XD detects metal both with the coil in motion, or with the coil motionless. In the PINPOINT mode of operation, metal is detected with the coil motionless over the ground.

  • Page 9: All Metal

    BASIC OPERATION (continued) (Default Operation) ALL METAL MODE The detector defaults to ALL METAL mode after powering on. In this mode, all types of metals will be detected. An object’s PROBABLE identification is indicated by the arrows at the top of the display. In addition, the PROBABLE depth of coin-sized objects is indicated by the rectangular segment indicators on the left side of the display.

    BASIC OPERATION (continued) NOTCH MODE To selectively eliminate a category from detection within the metallic spectrum, use the NOTCH Mode. Technical Note: The NOTCH touch pad causes the status of an "R" segment to toggle between ON and OFF. To use the NOTCH Mode: The NOTCH touch pad can be depressed at any time.

    The Titan 3000 XD Metal Detector has a stereo headphone jack located at the rear of the case.

  • Page 12: Audio Target Identification

    AUDIO TARGET IDENTIFICATION Motion Modes Only While the LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) is very accurate in identifying buried objects, the user in the field does not always maintain the display screen in his field of vision. Therefore, we have incorporated an audio feedback mechanism to alert the user to the nature of buried objects.

    As a starting point, refer to the table below. Titan 3000 XD TARGET Readout The table below list some common approximate target value equivalents.

  • Page 15: Sensitivity Adjustment

    SEVERE GROUND CONDITIONS A secondary use for the Sensitivity Control is to reduce false detection signals caused by severe ground conditions. While your Titan 3000 XD contains circuitry to eliminate the signals caused by most naturally occurring ground minerals, 100% of all ground conditions cannot be anticipated. Highly magnetic soils found in mountainous and gold-prospecting locations can cause the detector to emit tones when metal objects are not present.

    IN THE FIELD TECHNIQUES Motion Modes Only PINPOINTING COIL MOVEMENT When swinging the coil, be careful Accurate pinpointing takes practice to keep it level with the ground about and is best accomplished by “X-ing” one inch from the surface. Never the target area.

It is important to sweep the does not repeat after sweeping the coil at a consistent speed over the coil directly over the suspected target ground as you search.

  • Page 23: Terminology

    TERMINOLOGY The following terms are used throughout the manual, and are standard terminology among detectorists. ELIMINATION ‒ Reference to a metal being "eliminated" means that the detector will not emit a tone, nor light up an indicator, when a specified object passes through the coil’s detection field.
