User manual C-SCOPE PROMET2

[. . . ] C-Scope detectors are recognised as the finest detectors available. They are designed with lasting quality in mind, high technology, and above all, value for money. The only way to realise this value is to carefully study and understand this instruction manual. You will then be able to obtain all of the advantages designed into your detector. [. . . ] It is not possible to reject a valuable object with the PROMET 3's AUDIO or METER DISCRIMINATION Modes, if the object is in range. You should now experiment with various coins, iron and silver foil to test the reaction of the various objects so that you will be able to correctly interpret the signals. Hang the detector over a table so that the search head is not near metal. Set the detector to the programmed levels as described, then pass objects across the search head. The signal is separated into two channels. One will signal the presence of all metals by giving an increase in loudness. The second is the Discriminate Channel and will function either as a METER DISCRIMINATOR or an AUDIO DISCRIMINATOR or both. In METER DISCRIMINATE - The meter will analyse the object. For a bad object the meter signal will decrease towards the left hand "reject" position. For a good object the meter signal will increase towards the right hand "accept" position or remain still. In AUDIO DISCRIMINATE - The pitch of the sound alters to analyse an object. After digging up the object, compare the object size, shape, depth and position in the grouno with signal information you received before digging. After careful analysis of many digs, you will learn to "read" the hidden target before digging. Determining the Target Size and Depth 7 The Importance of the Right Approach Treasure hunting can be a profitable and rewarding hobby, if approached in a patient and diligent manner. Time spent researching to locate a worthwhile site for a search can be time wasted if your search is hasty and erratic. To achieve maximum results it is important then, to decide on your approach to any particular site in advance of the actual search. Tactics will be decided by the type of site - it is more profitable to scan a small area thoroughly, than to conduct a haphazard search of the total site. However, when the site is too far away for you to make several return visits a plan should be adopted which gives maximum site coverage, at the same time as indicating the most likely area for detailed search. Your detector alone is not a guarantee of successful treasure hunting. Any detector needs an operator and for the best results the operator needs the right approach, attitude and technique. Too many beginners neglect the importance of pre-planning and research before using their detector in the field, and patience and technique during the actual search. A successful search should begin with research sometime before the day of the actual search. The extent and thoroughness of your research will be one of the major factors in the success of your detecti:1g. [. . . ] Help keep Britain tidy - and help yourself. Bottle tops, silvl;lr paper and tin cans are the last things you should throwaway. You could well be digging them up again next year. Do yourself and the community a favour by taking all the rusty junk you find to the nearest litter bin. [. . . ]
