CS6Pi - RAPID GET YOU GOING INSTRUCTIONS 1. Assemble and adjust for length (twist surplus lead around stem). 2. Insert batteries. 3. Set FREQUENCY to BATT. CHECK position. 4. Turn detector on by setting THRESHOLD to position 1. The meter needle should be in the green section of the scale if the batteries are OK. 5. Adjust the FREQUENCY to mid scale 4-5. 6. Adjust THRESHOLD to obtain audio threshold then back off slightly so that no tone is heard. 7.

INTRODUCTION To protect your investment complete both sections of the enclosed guarantee card and return the reply paid portion to C-Scope (UK only). This is particularly important in order to obtain the free second year parts guarantee. Please retain the original packing box. In the event that your detector should ever require to be serviced, this package will be most suitable for postal protection. C-Scope detectors are recognised as the finest detectors available.
the two captive screws located in the battery cover (do not fully remove these from the cover) and remove the cover. Inside is the battery holder. Lift out the holder and detach the connector if it is already fitted. Load it with the eight batteries ensuring that each battery is inserted the correct way round, (direction of batteries alternating). Roll each individual battery to ensure it is located correctly and making proper contact.
The control panel comprises two rotary controls and a meter. i. ON/OFF - THRESHOLD control is used to set the audio tone of the machine. This is normally set so that the tone is silent or just on the point where the tone is starting to break through. There is no performance advantage in having a loud tone constantly present. 3 CS6pi 1 2 1. ON/OFF - THRESHOLD 2. BATT. CHECK - FREQUENCY 3. METER ii.
Check the batteries are in good condition prior to, and frequently during the search. The use of headphones is recommended as battery life is extended and extraneous noise is reduced allowing total concentration. With the detector head in the air, away from metals the THRESHOLD control is increased to the point just below the point at which the continuous audio tone is heard. This is the setting that will allow the user to get the best results.
An operator who is familiar with his instrument will be able to do an excellent job of determining object size, shape and depth before he digs. This technique is learned from careful analysis of the meter and audio signal coming from the detector. Each time a signal is heard, listen for any peculiar characteristics it may have, determine over how large an area you get a detector signal, and try to 'outline' the object before you dig.
should begin with research some time 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 detecting. You should aim to get as complete an understanding as possible of the local history and geography. The key to the choice of site is to think of people, where they congregated over the past few hundred years.
SWEEPING TECHNIQUE For extremely small object searching, such as coins, rings, nuggets, etc. lower the search coil to within 1 inch of the ground. Sweeping the coil from side to side in a straight line in front of you. Keep the coil at a constant height as you sweep from side to side. Move the coil at a rate of 0.5 metre per second. The optimum sweep rate must be determined by each operator. The detector should be held comfortably in the hand, with the coil held as closely to the ground as possible.
2. Respect the Country Code. Do not leave gates open when crossing fields, and do not damage crops or frighten animals. 3. Do not leave a mess. It is simple to extract a coin or other small objects buried a few inches under the ground without digging a great hole. Use a sharpened trowel or knife to cut a neat circle or triangle (do not remove the plug of earth entirely from the ground); extract the object; replace the soil and grass carefully and even you will have difficulty in finding the spot again. 4.
(b) Check that the search head is properly attached to the control box via the search head cable connector. (c) Interchange batteries and ensure connections are correct and secure. Battery life can vary tremendously between makes, therefore your 'new' batteries may already be insufficiently powerful to run the detector. Oscillating Signal Accompanied By Slight Meter Fluctuation (a) This could be due to poor battery connections. Ensure that they are tight and the batteries are securely clipped into place.
