THE DEVICE

POWERSCAN 2PRO /Sniffer xr-71 based MD/ is a professional metal


detector ( pulse induction ) The detector works on the principle of pulse
induction and is one of the apparatuses which can be used for a very deep
seeking of metals. You can work very easy with the device, ground balance
is not a problem for it, the detector can work with very different coils:
square coils 40X40cm, 50X50cm, 110x110cm,150X150cm, 200X200cm,
and also around coil of 28 cm for digging coins.

MAIN FUNCTIONS

POWER switches the detectors and regulates its power .
There are ten power levels as it works mainly on 9 or 10 level.
GAIN regulates the power of gained signal. When the
soil is normal it works mainly on level 10.
THRESHOLD a threshold tone. In dry soil it normally
works on level 9 or 10. When the moisture is high its good to work under
level 8.
SIGNAL eliminates soil mineralization.
When soil is normal its good to work on level 8 to 10, while the soil is
highly mineralized its recommended to work on level 0 to 3.
NOISE eliminates influence of Roman pottery over the
apparatus, its used in combination with SIGNAL.
FAST ZERO press this button for about 2-3 seconds
when the detector is ready to work with and the coil is over the ground.
Pressing this button eliminates ground mineralization and the detector
chooses itself the most suitable depth for searching. While press the button
fast zero you must
be sure there is no metal objects under the coil. We recommend press this
button every 4-5 minutes.
LOW BATTERY if the light switches on while
operating, it shows its necessary to charge the battery. If it happens,
please, do not use the detector.
COIL a coil jack.

FITTING THE COIL


Unfold the coil and put it into the openings. While stuff in the pipes one
into another you have to work very carefully. Stuff in the cable very
carefully into the last pipe. Fit the cable of the coil to the coupling COIL
/turn it carefully till the end. After buying the detector you have to charge it
using the enclosed charge device for few hours.
OPERATION
For reaching better results while searching in deep soils, you have to keep
the following instructions:
Walk out away in a place where there are no metal objects. Take up the coil
in the air, set the buttons POWER, GAIN, NOISE and
TRESHOLD to 10, and the button SIGNAL to 0. Put the coil close to
earth and set it still over 3-5 meters over earth. Press the button ZERO
for about 2-3 seconds and release it. The signal tone slowly disappears or
some occasional short tones can be heard in the SPEAKER. Keep the
coil steady over the ground for some minutes. If the signal tone or
occasional short tones appear again, then slowly decrease to the left the
buttons POWER and TRESHOLD while they can hardly be heard. For
the detector is constructed for a wide range of searching, to find the proper
situation of an object we advise you to set SIGNAL and NOISE on a
position 5, where the signal tone will be just over the object. Its
reasonable to use the detector when the situation of an object has been
localized before. You can also tune up the apparatus to be very sensible
towards very small objects-nails, caps, foil and other trash - so they cant
be caught out by the detector .Such discrimination is necessary when
digging huge range of soil for finding great finds, not necessary while
searching spare coins. If soil
is highly mineralized you may her different disturbances. You will realize
that if the signal of the
apparatus increases and do not disappear in some meters. This shows that
under your feet there is a huge object and signal comes by the highly ore
soil. So press the button FAST ZERO for 2-3- seconds and keep the coil
steady over the ground. Automatic settings will make operation with the
detector normal and you will be ready to continue working in this region. If
you use one or two meters square coils you have to know that their
working position is 15-20 cm over the ground. In this position if you hear
a heavy and short signal, walk back and raise the coil some more 15-20
cm over the ground; if you loose the signal it will mean the object is too
small. So you use your own judgment if you will continue working. If the
signal is still loud and long it means the object is bigger and deeply buried.
When lifting the coil over 30-40 cm over the ground the signal will not
disappear. If using the one meter coil you happen to find a short signal you
can find the proper situation as you keep the following instructions: Walk
back, wait for the signal tone to disappear and then walk ahead to the
possible object. When you hear the first signal you have to stay still
and mark with a nib a line on the ground. Then walk to the opposite side,
i.e. 180 degrees of the place and walk toward the object. After hear the
signal, mark a second line. If the distance between the two lines is some
centimeters that shows the object is too small. For precise location of the
object make two more measuring to the left and to the right at 90 degrees.
Another way to localize a small object is to lift up the coil at 90 degrees,
i.e. keep it parallel upright to yourself. Catch the coil with two hands to the
two opposite parallels. Bring the coil near the ground, press FAST ZERO
for 2-3 seconds and walk ahead as you measure the same way mentioned
before at 90 an 180 degrees.
Examples:
1. Signal tone rises fast over a
small parcel, it slows down fast and
then rises up again. This indicates
for a very small object on a low
depth.

2. Signal tone rises slowly,


covers a huge parcel and then slowly
goes down it indicates for a huge
and deeply buried /in a range of 2-3 meters/ object.

3. Signal tone rises slowly over a small parcel and then slowly does
down. It indicates for a middles big object buried in a range of 1-2 meters.
You can make your measurements as you bury different sized object in
different range of depths at least 1meter on another for testing small coils,
and at least 4 meters for testing one or two meters coils. While working
with the detector be consistent and keep notes for all your measurements as
you point the parcel and its structure of soil, the depth of buried objects,
and the kind of the object, the settings of buttons that localize the position
of the
object. As more experiments you make as much you will form your
professional experience.

BATTERY CHARGE
POWERSCAN 2Pro possesses a rechargeable storage battery. If a
light "Low battery" /red led/ switches on while working with the apparatus
you must spot work and recharge the battery. Plug in the jack "CHARGE"
of the charge set into electric net of
220V. After some hours the battery will be recharged. The charge set will
automatically switch off when the battery is ready so the battery cant be
damaged if it stays longer in the charge set. When its ready, in the reverse
order take the jack back
of the "CHARGE".

PRECAUTIONS: While searching in different regions it is possible to


come upon different ammunitions -shells, cartridges, mines so be careful
while dig any object. You must dig found object very carefully and do not
allow children around! The producer and the salesman do
not answer for your actions! Do not search for objects protected by law!
