Manual Ground Balance

The metal detector ground balance has to be done on ground free of any metals; otherwise, the ground
balance will be incorrect if done while a metal is present. This will generate undesirable false signals.
Procedure:
1. Activate the Manual Ground Balance function.
2. Move the search coil up and down starting from 1 inch above the ground level, up to approximately 4
to 5 inches while keeping the coil parallel to the ground.
3. Increase or decrease the ground balance level until the metal detector is silent (The GB icon must be
highlighted).
(IF THE METAL DETECTOR CAN NOT BE BALANCED, THE METAL DETECTOR SENSITIVITY HAS TO BE
REDUCED)
