ASSEMBLY OF THE COIL AND TURNING THE DETECTOR ON CONGRATULATIONS FOR PURCHASING YOUR SUPER SENSITIVE PENETRATOR-5100G PULSE INDUCTION METAL DETECTOR. Take the coil out of the leather bag. The coil is folded into sheaf, this is its transport position. Put the sheaf on the ground, and arrange its elements to form a square.

AUTOMATIC OPERATION MODE Then the operational screen appears. It shows the battery condition and the current levels of the settings. The symbol A shows that your detector is in AUTOMATIC MODE of operation. This mode will be described in details below. SSP-5100G DELAY LIGHT...

INSTRUCTION MANUAL NOTE: While in Automatic Mode the SSP-5100 is a typical motion system - the search coil should be moved slowly over the ground surface, but never stop over a metal target. Try to keep constant operational height of the coil. If anyway you change the operational height of the search coil, nearing it sharply to the ground surface, the processor will need 7-8 seconds to restore the optimum ticking rate.

MANUAL MODE OF OPERATION The Automatic Mode is very easy and operative mode. But the MANUAL MODE of operation will give you much more sensitivity and stability of operation. While in Automatic Mode press the AUTO button. On the Operative Screen the symbol A for Automatic Mode will change to the symbol M - Manual Mode of operation.

MANUAL MODE OF OPERATION Immediately after that on the display appears an inscription for manual tunning. SSP-5100G DELAY LIGHT ADJUST TUNER VOLUME DISC manual AUTO ON/OFF 61.2 TUNER RESET DEPTH DETECT RESET If you like the preset level of the ticking rate and find it appropriate for your needs, press the DETECT button to enter the operational screen and start searching.

DESCRIPTION OF THE CONTROLS DEPTH The DEPTH button is the control directly affecting the sensitivity of the detector and its depth of detection. The value of depth is always inscribed in the bottom left end of the operative screen - the values are from 1 to 8. To make a change in the depth of your detector, simply press the DEPTH button.

DESCRIPTION OF THE CONTROLS The discrimination is based on the magnetic qualities of the ferrous objects. The tempered steels would produce a more explicit response from your detector. These are objects like knives, scalpels, scissors, swords. At the other hand, such ferrous objects should be dug, as they are relics.

DESCRIPTION OF THE CONTROLS With the MIN setting of the DELAY the detector is equally sensitive to all metal target and detects them at maximum depth. With the MAX setting of the DELAY the detector rejects some thin foils, modern alloys, i.e. low conductivity objects.

BATTERIES Your detector is provided with built-in rechargeable battery pack - NiMH batteries, 1800 mAh. These batteries have no “memory” - they could be recharged at any time, with no request to be fully discharged. NOTE: The NiMH battery pack supplied with your detector is charged, so it is not necessary to charge it before the first use of your detector.

USEFUL ADVICES Looking at the Operative screen you’ll see a continuously rolling line at the bottom of the screen. When you are not moving and there are no sources of electromagnetic interferences nearby the line will be smooth, nearer to straight line. The same straight line you’ll see if you operate the detector keeping constant operational height of the searchcoil and you do not pass over a metal object.

USEFUL ADVICES Big, deep low magnetic ferrous target Big, deeply buried strongly magnetized ferrous target Small, shallow non-ferrous target Small, shallow low magnetic ferrous target Small, shallow, strongly magnetized ferrous target With the graphics above we have shown only some more typical cases. In the practice, the graphical variants are much more.
