Overview

The DR.ÖTEK MT6 Pro is a metal detector pinpointer designed for efficient and precise metal detection. Its primary function is to help users locate metal objects with accuracy, making it suitable for various treasure hunting and detection activities.

Function Description

The MT6 Pro operates as a non-motion ALL METAL detector, meaning it responds to all types of metal without requiring movement or swinging to locate a target. This feature simplifies the detection process, allowing users to pinpoint objects by simply bringing the device close to the target. The device is equipped with a built-in antenna for transmitting and receiving signals, with the head's 0.78 - 1.18 inches (2-3cm) section offering higher sensitivity for enhanced detection.

The pinpointer offers three distinct operation modes to cater to different user preferences and environmental conditions:

  • Vibration Mode: This mode provides haptic feedback, vibrating when a metal object is detected.
  • Audio Mode: In this mode, the device emits an audible tone upon detecting metal.
  • Vibration+Audio Mode: This combined mode offers both haptic and audible alerts, providing comprehensive feedback to the user.

The MT6 Pro features an LCD screen that displays the signal strength of the detected target. The closer the target is to the pinpointer, the stronger the signal indicated on the screen, allowing for visual confirmation of proximity.

For user convenience and battery conservation, the device includes an auto-shutdown feature. After five minutes of standby, the MT6 Pro emits an alert tone and then automatically shuts down.

Usage Features

Operating the MT6 Pro is straightforward, primarily utilizing two buttons: a POWER & MODE button and an Interference Cancelling Button.

Power and Mode Control:

  • Turning On/Off: A short press of the POWER button turns on the motor, while a long press turns it off. Upon activation, the pinpointer will emit two beeps, followed by another beep, indicating it's ready for detection. It automatically starts in the last mode used.
  • Changing Modes: A short press of the MODE button cycles through the available detection modes in the following order: AUDIO MODE, VIBRATION MODE, and AUDIO+VIBRATION MODE.

Interference Cancellation:

The Interference Cancelling Button is crucial for maintaining detection accuracy in challenging environments. If electromagnetic interference from sources like nearby power lines causes false signals, pressing this button will return the pinpointer to its normal detection state. A white triangle on the device will turn green to confirm the cancellation.

LED Light:

The MT6 Pro is equipped with an LED light that illuminates when the device is turned on, indicating its operational status. This LED light also doubles as a flashlight, providing illumination in dark conditions or underwater, which is particularly useful for locating objects in low-visibility environments. To turn the LED light on or off, users simply press the power button twice quickly.

Waterproof Capability:

A significant feature of the MT6 Pro is its IP68 waterproof rating, making it fully waterproof and submersible. This allows users to operate the device underwater up to 10 feet (3m), making it ideal for detecting in creeks, rivers, lakes, and even during diving activities. To ensure proper waterproof functionality, it is essential to fasten the battery cover tightly before any underwater use to prevent water leakage.

Maintenance Features

Battery Management:

The MT6 Pro requires a 9V alkaline battery for operation. The device provides a clear indication when the battery needs replacement: the white LED will flash continuously. To preserve battery life and ensure the device's longevity, it is recommended to remove the battery when the pinpointer is not in use for extended periods.

Quick Start Guide for Practice:

To help users master the MT6 Pro, a quick start guide is provided, encouraging practice both indoors and outdoors. This guide outlines a simple testing procedure:

  1. Prepare Test Targets: Users are advised to prepare a group of metal targets, such as a quarter coin, as the MT6 Pro is a non-motion ALL METAL detector.
  2. Environmental Preparation: Before testing, it's important to remove any personal metal jewelry (watch, ring, etc.) and ensure the testing area is free from other metal objects, walls, floors, or electrical appliances (televisions, computers, mobile phones) that could cause electromagnetic interference.
  3. Positioning the Target: Place a quarter coin on a plastic or wooden table, ensuring no metal items are beneath or around it. Position the MT6 Pro vertically above the coin.
  4. Power On: Turn on the pinpointer. It will emit two beeps and vibrate once, signaling it's ready.
  5. Detection Test: Slowly move the MT6 Pro straight downward, approaching the coin. Users should observe the motor vibrating or hearing a beep. As the pinpointer fully approaches the coin, the LCD screen will display a full bar signal, indicating strong detection.

These features collectively ensure that the DR.ÖTEK MT6 Pro is a versatile, user-friendly, and robust tool for metal detection, offering reliable performance in various environments and conditions.
