The development of the ADVENTIS, the ADVENTIS 2 has led to the inclusion of a new circuit board with specially optimised specifications.

Because a metal detector is generally used in extreme conditions, we have given full attention to the most sensitive parts. ADVENTIS 2 is been developed and manufactured with quality components and material, thus ensuring your XP detector a maximum useful life.
D E S C R I P T I O N 1 – Full telescopic stem, includes a fibreglass impregnated lower stem. 2 – Robust, waterproof search coil. Diam.9” (22.5 cm), provided with coil cover. 3 - ABS electronics box 4 –...
A S S E M B L Y The assembly of your detector will only take you a few seconds. Put the shaft together as shown on the diagram. Put the rubber washers on the side of the fibreglass tube (1). Insert the fibreglass tube on the search head (2).

A S S E M B L Y To hold the cable along the telescopic stem you can use Velcro® strip as shown on the photo below(C & D). Option 2 : Electronic box hipmounted Insert the control box into the hipmount bag. Then insert the connector (female) in its panel connector (male) and screw it.
B A T T E R Y L O W A L E R T ALKALINE BATTERY __________________________ ADVENTIS 2 is powered with 12 volts from 8 AA Alkaline batteries using 2 batteries holders, 4 batteries each. Pay close attention to the battery ± polarity before inserting the batteries holders in the electronic box.

C O N T R O L S START I/O, SENSITIVITY _____________________ Turn the machine on with the SENSITIVITY I/O control. You will hear some quick "beeps" which will tell you that the detector is correctly operating. Then you can detect. The control also enables you to adjust the sensitivity of your detector.
C O N T R O L S DISCRIMINATION_______________________________ The discrimination control depends on the 3 positions DISC switch. 3 options are available: option : The DISC switch is on the AM position ("All metal" mode), the detector is then set up in all metal mode.

C O N T R O L S In IRON REJECT (D1 or D2), a non ferrous target will produce a deep, full sound which can be repeated at the same spot with each sweep. Most of the ferrous targets will be silent or might produce a choppy sound (short "pops"...
C O N T R O L S FREQ. SHIFT._____________________________ The FREQ. SHIFT switch eliminates interference which would otherwise be caused between two XP detectors used within close proximity of each other. It can act on two settings simultaneously: the working frequency of your detector: Freq1 ou Freq 2 The XP wireless headphone output channel: CH1 ou CH2...

C O N T R O L S If you are working WITH A PARTNER without the XP wirelessheadphones: you can use FREQ. SHIFT. on the middle setting: DETECT Freq1 / WS1 OFF position on YOUR device. on a high setting: DETECT Freq 2 / WS1 CH1 position on your partner's device, even if they are not using a wireless headset.
C O N T R O L S GROUND________________________________ With this control you can correct ground effects and more accurately reject ferrous minerals or any pottery containing iron oxides. If you are prospecting on grounds loaded with magnetic stones, it might be a good idea to keep a sample of these stones on you to adjust your detector before detecting this type of ground.
D E T E C T I N G T E C H N I Q U E S ADVENTIS 2 is motion detector, which means that a target detection can be carried out only when the search coil is moving.
C A R E I N S T R U C T I O N S Our detectors are designed to be as robust as possible, however, like any electronic precision instrument, they require some care. The XP search coil cable has been designed so as to resist long term movement.
Page 18
C A R E I N S T R U C T I O N S Not adhering to these precautions will lead to long term damage of the cable and void the warranty due to user negligence. In the event of nonprolonged use, remove the alkaline batteries from the detector.
