Connect the search coil-connector to the COIL jack

of the electronics unit, and fasten the plastic sleeve

of the connector by rotating it clockwise. At switch

ON the detector runs through a display check

sequence since all the icons come on and indicate

the retuning process is performed by the electro-

nics at the same time. Right afterwards the rm-

ware version is shortly displayed as well. Afterwards

the detector will automatically turn to the settings

which were selected the last time the detector was

in use. While pushing the three push buttons die-

rent settings will be selected and can be altered by

means of the same controls at the bottom of the LC

display.

Hold the connected search coil at constant distance

above the ground and move the coil slowly from

side to side in overlapping manner with the tele-

scopic pole in order to be able to detect even the

smallest metal pieces. Avoid a speed of more than

2 meters per second when moving the coil even

though the response speed of the Z2 is very high in

FILTER settings 1 or 2.

During operation no metal buckles or shoes con-

taining metal parts should be worn. The same with

keys, coins, rings and watches. Every metal carried

by the operator can cause false signals, especially

when they are in the near of the eld of the search

coil. Therefore the electronics control box has to be

carried far away from the search coil, this is especi-

ally important while searching with the large frame

mounted coils but also with the smaller coils. Never

use any metal screws when building frames for the

cable coils.

The loudspeaker will give a ticking or threshold

sound after having retuned the detector with the

ZERO control. The sound can be individually tuned

from silent to a low frequency threshold tone with

the AUDIO settings. This pre-set audio tone will be

recalled every time the

ZERO control is pushed. This

has to be done during the rst minutes of opera-

tion due to warming up at places where there is no

metal in the near of the search coil.
