[. . . ] "On / Off" indicator light "On / Off" button Speaker Earbud jack 8 Sensitivity control The unit is preset, at the factory, to medium sensitivity. You can change sensitivity to the low, medium or high level. * The Specifications list (page 20) shows the effect of the different sensitivity levels for detecting objects of various sizes. Open the battery door and remove the stylus from inside the battery door (see page 7). Use the stylus to press the sensitivity control to cycle through the sensitivity levels, medium, high, low, etc. [. . . ] It is recommended that you replace the battery if the light is yellow. Battery life Based upon measurements, battery life for a 600 mA-hour alkaline battery at room temperature: On 216 hours 9 days Off 2880 hours 120 days Battery life is doubled with the 1200 mA-hour lithium-manganese dioxide batteries. Rechargeable 9V batteries can be used, but battery life per charging is typically much shorter than the life of 9V alkaline batteries, and depends upon battery type and the battery recharging system. Do NOT use the earbud jack as a recharging port!Use of the earbud jack as a recharging port may damage the Matrix 100 or the battery charger, and will void the warranty. Battery temperature ratings Alkaline batteries are rated by the manufacturer: Energizer -18°C to 55°C (0°F to 130°F) Panasonic -20°C to 54°C (-4°F to 130°F) Lithium-manganese dioxide batteries are rated by the manufacturer: Duracell -20°C to 60°C (-4°F to 140°F) Energizer -40°C to 60°C (-40°F to 140°F) Ultralife -20°C to 60°C (-4°F to 140°F) Manufacturer's ratings are based upon operating loads quite different from the Matrix 100 so you may see different results. Extreme temperature "optional" batteries 11 High temperature batteries: For information about special batteries that will operate at temperatures as low as -40°C contact White's Electronics, Inc. Battery Installation · Gently slide the battery door open. · Slide a 9 volt battery into the battery cavity. · Close the battery door. 12 De-Sense button On the top edge of the scanner, there is a large rubber "De-Sense" button. When depressed, this button will reduce the detectors sensitivity by approximately 50%. This is particularly useful when scanning near rebar reinforced floors. The "De-Sense" is only activated as long as the button is depressed. While the De-Sense button is pressed the "ON/OFF" light (see page 4) will illuminate continuously. If the battery is good the light will be green. With the paddle of the detector held horizontally and parallel to the front of the body, sweep down one side of the front of the torso, down the leg to the ankle, then move to the other ankle and sweep back up the front of this opposite leg and torso, ending with the opposite shoulder. (If a particular detector's detection paddle is less than half the width of the average body, or if a particular body is wider than twice the width of the detection paddle, the pattern will have to be modified to achieve adequate coverage). Sweep the detector paddle over the outside top of the arm from the top of the shoulder to the bottom of the wrist, then up the inside of the arm to the armpit. Sweep down that side of the body to the ankle, then up the inside of that leg and down the inside of the opposite leg, then back up the other leg from the ankle to the underarm. Repeat the sweep of the inside and outside of this arm. Note that it would be particularly important to avoid touching the paddle up against the scannee's body when scanning up and down between the legs. The pattern used to scan the front of the body should now be repeated over the back of the body. Ask the scannee to grab the edge of the table for support, then to lift one foot up in back of him or herself. The operator should expect to hear a short squeal from the detector when scanning the bottom of shoes or boots with steel shanks or steel toes. Both shoes should cause equivalent squeals. For the head area, start at the top of the forehead and scan around the top of the head down to the back of the neck. 16 · When the detector identifies a suspicious item and there is no visible source for the alarm (clothing is shielding the source object), ask the person to show you what they have in that area.
