The most common problem is that the battery is low or in need of a charge. In every case, please ensure
that the battery is fully charged.
Questions Answers
Why do I have to constantly change the delay?
• Changing the delay usually occurs after a
strong signal is received or you accidentally
change the setting.
• There could be an area with higher
mineralization causing the delay to be reset.
• When the unit was balanced to the ground, it
was either too low or too high above the
ground.
Why is it so hard to balance the unit?
• The coil is directly on the ground as you are
setting the delay and threshold.
• You may be too close to an electrical appliance
or motor.
• Be sure your area where you are balancing the
unit is clean.
Why does it beep and there is no target?
• Your coil is too close to the ground and it is
receiving feedback.
There is a target, then it goes away, why?
• Check your ground balance, most likely you
adjusted it in the field and have reset the unit
and balanced it out.
• The size of the item may be extremely small or
it may lie just within the range of the detector.
I hear a target, then I can't find it again, why?
• The coil may be touching or just about to touch
the ground and give a signal that there is an
anomaly.
I don't see anything in the display
• Adjust the brightness of the monitor. If in direct
sunlight put hand over display to shade it.
I don't hear any tones
• Check to make sure that the volume is loud
enough and that there is a coil attached. If
there is no coil then the unit will remain silent.
• Check the coil to ensure that there are no tears
in cable.
• You need to ground balance the unit again,
perhaps an adjustment knob was accidentally
turned.
