Gold Century Underwater metal detector is a style with superb quality and
performance. It’s not only with high sensitivity but can distinguish the metal
type also. It can help user to find the lost coins, gold/silver jewelry and
metal objects, which can enable the users to have fun during operation.
Motion detection has relatively low requirements on environment.
Sensitivity adjustment function enables the detector easily adapted to different
environment.
Discrimination adjustment function enables the elimination of unwanted metal.
Water-proof detector and headset enable the underwater detection.
Water-proof to depth of 65 feet.
OPERATION
Clockwise rotate the “SENS” control to power on the detector.
1. “DISC” function
By adjusting the Discrimination control you will be able to ignore small pieces of
metallic trash while detecting valuable targets. Discrimination points are
determined by such factors as size, shape, depth, and type of metal and ground
mineralization. Scatter some sample targets such as coins, pull tabs and small pieces of foil
on the ground 1 to 2 feet apart.
(2) Turn the Sensitivity Control to clockwise full to set sensitivity to maximum.
(3) Turn the Discrimination control to counterclockwise full.
(4) Put the headset on and turn on the POWER. Hold the search coil about 2 inches above
and parallel to the ground. Move it slowly over the samples and note the LED and
Audio response as you pass over each one. Keep in mind that GC-1029 is a motion
detector and responds only when the search coil is moving.
(5) Turn the Discrimination Control clockwise to several points of the white region
and again pass over the targets. Repeat this process at yellow region and so on
to the red region. You will note that as you adjust the discrimination level,
GC-1029 will reject some targets and continue to respond to others. You can
determine the discrimination points per your needs. For example, the small nail
discrimination may be at some point of the yellow region and the pull-tab
discrimination point at red region.
(6) Some objects such as shallow bottle caps, bent pull tabs or trash less than 2
inches from the coil may be difficult to reject. The headset will give out a
broken signal that will usually disappear if the search coil is raised slightly.
The strong signal of a good target will just get weaker too when the coil is
raised.
(7) GC-1029 will remain silent when some objects are rejected, however other objects
may “snap, crackle and pop” as they are rejected. Those are normal responses
indicating that the powerful discrimination circuitry is doing its job.
(8) Large pieces of trash such as beer cans or jar lids may sound like good targets
no matter what you do. With a little practice, however, you will be able to tell
the difference between a large target and a small coin sized object.
2 ”SENS” function
Clockwise rotate the switch to turn on the power, go on clockwise rotating to
increase the SENS generally, rotate to the full to set the highest SENS. High
SENS should be used in the most detections.
Counter-clockwise rotate the switch to decrease the SENS. Fully counter-clockwise rotate the
switch to turn off the power.
