Field Operation - Pyle PHMD2 Instruction Manual

 Keep the coin stable and release the red TARGET button. After one or two
seconds press the red TARGET button again and the unit's sensitivity reduces.
Although the location of the coin hasn't changed and the unit won't sound a
tone. The coin approaches the centre of the search coil again and the unit will
respond with a long tone.
 Repeat the above steps and reduce the height of the coin time after time until
it's close to the centre of the search coil.
7. Operate Outdoors
You have now learned how to operate the detector in the wild, as the soil, sea
sand, ores and other environmental impacts and the interference of electromagnetic
fields. The detector sensitivity and location of discrimination will change. You should
practice time after time and accumulate the experience to master the skill of detecting
gradually and you will taste the joy of treasure-hunting.

Field Operation

Metal detector is used outdoors. There are too many metallic objects indoors and
also all kinds of electrical equipments that will bring interference signals, so it's not
fit for using the detector.
Field detection is more complicated and the composition of the detected regional
soil, the component, size, shape and the oxidation degree of the underground metals
will all affect the detection results. This chapter is only the general steps of the field
detection. The operator should practice time after time and accumulate experience to
achieve good results.
1. Turn on
Rotate the SENS knob to the right side and switch on the power supply. The
detector will sound a DI tone。
2. Set DISC
In general, the operator should set the "DISC" to the ALL METAL. At this time
the detector will respond to all kinds of metals. When finding the target you could
discriminate the metal type approximately by the DISC knob.
If the operator is very experienced and there is clear target object, you should
directly adjust the "DISC" to the appropriate position. If there is undesired trash
metals such as iron and pull tabs. You should set the "DISC" to the near of
"12:00".Since the soil will deviate from the discrimination position, we suggest you
take some samples with you, such as iron nail, pull tab, 5￠ nickel coin and 25￠
silver coins. Bury these samples in the detection soil respectively and try to detect and
observe the DISC position of the metal being rejected. It will help you judge the type
of the target in case you omit the treasures that you want to find.
3. Choose the SENS
The operators always expects the detector's sensitivity to be higher. However, in
