Jalas BOUNTY HUNTER DISC33-R Discovery 3300 [12/24] Basic operation

BASIC OPERATION

continued

The ZAP control is easy to use in the field. As you are detecting, and

encounter an object which you wish to eliminate from detection,

simply press the ZAP touch pad after detecting the object.

The ZAP control eliminates the most-recently detected object category

from detection. The category eliminated is indicated with an "R".

PIN POINT MODE

Since long-buried objects can appear exactly like the surrounding soil,

the process of finding the exact location of a small object, such as a

coin, can be time-consuming and frustrating. Objects buried many

inches deep present an especially daunting challenge. In addition,

during the unearthing process, care must be taken not to damage

valuable relics. The best solution to these problems is the no-motion

PINPOINT mode.

At any time during operation, press the PINPOINT touch pad, and the

detector enters the no-motion mode. In the PINPOINT mode, any

object in the coil’s detection field will induce a monotone hum.

The

location of a coin-sized object can be discerned with pinpoint

accuracy as it will induce a tone only when it falls within the

inner circle of the search coil. Pass the coil slowly over and

around the target zone, and you will quickly see the target’s

exact location.

Be sure that the detector is properly GROUND BALANCED before using

the PINPOINT MODE. See page 20 for manual ground balancing

instructions. Also, consult page 22 for proper no-motion field techniques.

The Target Identification and Target Depth indicators are disabled in

this mode. To discern the identification

and depth of an object, you must use

one of the motion modes of operation.

HEADPHONE JACK

Using headphones (not supplied) with

your metal detector makes it easier to

identify subtle changes in the threshold

levels for better detection results, and also

reduces drain on the batteries. The

Discovery 3300 Metal Detector has a

stereo headphone jack located at the rear

of the case.
