Search With 30X30Cm Search Coil - KTS-Electronic GPA 500 XS Manual

4.2.1 Search with 30x30cm search coil

 Switching the electronic unit on via On-/Off-button.
 Select your language.
 Select "GOLD ID-XL" as search method.
 Hold the search coil to the ground and press the Reset-button for a brief
moment. You herewith attain a zero balance, which is necessary for a trouble-
free search.
 During zero balance make sure that there are no metallic objects near the
search coil. This could cause a wrong adjustment of the metal detector and
produce unwanted indicator effects.
 Repeat the zero balance process after soil-changes like a dig up or after you
changed location.
 In the beginning please set the frequency to the lowest level. The volume
should be set hearable with the help of the Audio control. Generally we
recommend to start with the lowest frequency adjustment to acquaint yourself
with the handling of the device. With advancing experience it is expedient, to
increase the frequency gradually, what will have a positive effect on the search
performance.
 It is recommendable to keep the search coil parallel to the ground while
searching.
 It takes some experience to interpret the sounds correctly. The sound
becomes more intense the bigger the object or the closer to the surface the
object is.
