INTRODUCTION The C-Scope PROMET 3 is the culmination of many years of research by both electronic engineers and metal detector enthusiasts to produce a detector with high performance, that both a novice or experienced user can harness to the full, simply and effectively.
Rechargeable batteries in two packs, together with a charger are available as a C-Scope Accessory. It is advised that standard HP7s are used to begin with. You can then evaluate the sort of use you give the detector and decide whether the investment in rechargeables is justified.
O. Battery Compartment R. Battery Cover Penlight Battery Holders Fastener Battery Leads The loudspeaker is by far the greatest drain on the batteries. If HP7 batteries are to be used it is necessary to load these into the penlight battery holders which are supplied with the detector in the battery compartment.
GETTING STARTED After assembly and ballery insertion the PROMET 3 is now ready for operation. The PROMET 3 is extremely simple to operate, and is WITH YOUR programmed and designed in such a way that the operator is not required to PROMET 3 adjust discriminate or ground exclude levels.

Meter/Audio The levels of Discrimination or Rejection are identical in both modes Meter and Audio (Discrimination c;an be defined as the ability to give a different type Discriminate of signal for ferrous junk or worthless objects than the signal given by a non ferrous object).
Since the detectors employ a Total Response search head the object can be detected across the full width, back to front, of the search head. Maximum sensitivity occuring down the middle of the search head. Pinpointing (i) The strongest signal will always be received when the object is directly beneath the centre of the head (see X in Diagram 1).
The Importance of Treasure hunting can be a profitable and rewarding hobby, if approached in a patient and diligent manner. Time spent researching to locate a worthwhile the Right Approach site for a search can be time wasted if your search is hasty and erratic. To achieve maximum results it is important then, to decide on your approach to any particular site in advance of the actual search.
It is also important to keep the detector head as close to the ground as possible. ideally, you should "iron" the ground with the search head of the detector, so that you do not lose any detection range. Similarly, if you work slowly and carefully you should be able to distinguish the faint signals as well as the clear-cut signals and further increase your finds.
CODE OF Do not trespass. Ask permission before venturing on to any private land. CONDUCT Respect the Country Code. Do not leave gates open when crossing fields, and do not damage crops or frighten animals. 3. Do not leave a mess. It is perfectly simple to extract a coin or other small object buried a few inches under the ground without digging a great hole.
