How to fix a Bounty Hunter Metal Detector with no power?
If your Bounty Hunter Metal Detector has no power and makes no sounds, the batteries might be dead. Replace them. Also, check the connections to ensure the cord is properly connected.
Why does my Bounty Hunter Metal Detector beep erratically?
Your Bounty Hunter Metal Detector might beep erratically due to several reasons: using it indoors, being near power lines (buried or overhead), having two detectors in close proximity (keep them at least 20’ apart), a highly oxidized buried object (only dig up repeatable signals), or environmental electromagnetic interference (reduce sensitivity until erratic signals cease). Try using the detector outdoors only, moving away from power lines, and reducing sensitivity.
What to do if my Bounty Hunter Elite 2200 has a constant low tone?
If your Bounty Hunter Metal Detector emits a constant low tone or repeating tones, it could be due to discharged or wrong type of batteries. Replace the batteries, ensuring you use only 9V alkaline batteries.
Why my Bounty Hunter Elite 2200 Metal Detector LCD does not lock on target ID?
If the LCD on your Bounty Hunter Metal Detector doesn't lock onto one target ID, or if the detector emits multiple tones, it could be due to multiple targets being present. Try moving the coil slowly at different angles. It may also be caused by a highly oxidized target; in this case, reduce the sensitivity.
Accurate pinpointing takes practice and is best accomplished by "X-ing" the target area.
The principle use for the Sensitivity Control is to eliminate Electromagnetic Interference (EMI). Avoid indoor electronic devices.
A secondary use for the Sensitivity Control is to reduce false detection signals caused by severe ground conditions. Highly magnetic soils can cause false signals.
Explanation of the Sensitivity control, its default setting, and how to adjust it for detection depth and false signals.
Used to eliminate unwanted objects from detection. Pressing DISCRIMINATION adds 'R's to eliminate categories, starting with Iron.
Allows selective elimination of a category from detection within the metallic spectrum. Toggles 'R' status between ON and OFF.
