UNDERSTANDING THE DETECTOR
OPERATION
Your
RadioShack
Discriminator Metal Detector with
Analog Signal-Strength Meter is a
"motion" detector. This means that
you must move the searchcoil
slightly to detect the presence of
metal (see "Pinpointing a Target" on
page 12) The motion required is
slight, and pinpointing targets is very
easy as long as the metal is under
the searchcoil and the searchcoil is
moving.
Viewmeter
The detector's viewmeter is on the
front of the control housing. The
meter's needle swings to the right
when an object is detected.
SENSITIVITY
Use this control to turn the detector
on or off and increase or decrease
the detector's sensitivity at an
operational setting.
