DETECTION ON THE BEACH AND
UNDERWATER
SIMPLEX is a waterproof metal detector. This provides
convenient detection underwater and on the beach.
As explained before, salt water and alkali grounds are
significantly conductive and cause effects similar to
iron in detectors. SIMPLEX's Beach mode is specially
designed for such conditions. You can perform your
search easily using the Beach mode without requiring
any special settings.
Beach mode is ideal for salty wet beach sand. You can
use the other modes while performing search over dry
beach sand.
You should consider the following while performing
search over wet beach sand or underwater:
1) When you swing the search coil over the holes you
dig in wet beach sand, you can receive metal signals,
this is a normal condition.
2) The search coil may give false signals when going
into and coming out of the water so please try to keep
the coil either in or out of the water.
3) While detecting on wet beach sand, avoid rubbing
or hitting the search coil on the ground. Otherwise, the
device may give false signals.
4) When going from wet sand to dry sand or from dry
sand to wet sand while detecting on the beach, the
device may emit false signals. Ground balance the
detector after you switch from one another.
5) The ground balance is set to 00.0 for maximum
stability in the Beach mode by default. If you cannot
auto ground balance on wet sand and/or in salt water,
try manual ground balancing. If you still cannot ground
balance, set the ground balance value back to 00.0
manually.
Pay attention to the items below after using the device
especially under salty water:
1. Wash the system box, shaft and the coil with tap
water and be sure no salt water is left in the connectors.
2. Do not use any chemicals for cleaning and/or for any
other purposes.
3. Wipe the screen and the shaft dry with a soft, non-
scratch cloth.
CHECK COIL ICON
It indicates an interruption in the search coil transmitter
signal. The search coil connector may be unattached,
loose or disconnected. If you own another detector with
the same coil connector, please be sure that you have
not attached the wrong coil by mistake. If none of the
above exists, the search coil or its cable may have a
defect. If the issue continues when you change the
search coil, there may be an issue in the coil control
circuit.
