If you wish to use headphones (highly recommended) connect your available set to the 6.3 mm jack socket on the battery box. The Nexus Standard MP V3+ has an internal loudspeaker so headphones are not absolutely essential. For any headphones that have a volume control, ensure that it is set to MAXIMUM and use the detector’s Volume knob on the control box to set the...
Controls The Nexus Standard MP V3+ has eight rotary control knobs and 3 toggle switches. Battery Test Toggle Switch It is located on the front panel of the control box. It is used to check the condition of the batteries by using the DDM.

10 turn potentiometer with a multi turn dial mechanism with locking lever. These two controls are used to set the balance of the Nexus Standard MP V3+ to suit the soil conditions on any given site. Threshold This knob sets the level of the threshold tone.
General Operation and Set-Up Having assembled the Nexus, inserted batteries and connected the headphones, The Nexus is ready for use. The Nexus Standard MP V3+ is designed exclusively for use by highly experienced users. No metal detector, however powerful, will...
Full Manual Set-Up Firstly, ensure that no metal is in close proximity to the coil. It is also advisable to carry out the tuning and setting up of the Nexus Standard MP V3+ away from other metal detectors or potential sources of electronic interference.
(10", subject to coil size) and lower back to 3” (75 mm) above ground several times. Note whether the threshold tone remains the same or if it increases or decreases in intensity while raising and lowering the coil. There should be no residual tone change left after the GB is done.
To achieve the best ground balance tuning, it is essential that the coil be held parallel to the ground surface at all times during the procedure. In highly mineral soil conditions the use of Mineral Control may be necessary to apply to tune the detector in stable operating condition.
The Nexus Standard MP V3+ is now set up for the particular site conditions and it is ready for use. Search Method With the Nexus Standard MP V3+ set up and ready, the coil should be swung smoothly from side to side, a little above the ground surface.
the threshold tone. A strong response indicates a large or relatively shallow target and a weak response indicates a small or deep target. Any audio signal in All-Metal Mode may be analysed by using the RGB meter. To analyse a signal with the RGB Meter observe its colour response in the exact time of audio response.
All detectors and sites are different and a particular combination of frequency and filtering might be best on a specific site, although the range of accessory coils available for the Nexus Standard MP V3+ will allow effective operation under all conditions and for all types of targets.
Ground Balance to be adjusted from time to time for best results. Care of the Nexus Standard MP V3+ All metal detectors are precision instruments and require careful handling to ensure they remain in good working order.
Operation Manual, understand it and put it into practice. Expecting the Nexus MP V3+ to perform without the user being in complete control of the device will result in failure, because this is not a digitally controlled metal detector with preinstalled programs meant to control and navigate the detector functionality on the user’s behalf.
