TERMINOLOGY
The following terms are used throughout the manual, and are standard
terminology among detectorists.
ELIMINATION
Reference to a metal being "eliminated" means that the detector will not
emit a tone, nor display a Target-ID, when a metal object passes through
the searchcoil’s detection field.
DISCRIMINATION
When the detector emits different tones for different types of metals, and
when the detector "eliminates" certain metals, we refer to this as the
detector "discriminating" among different types of metals.
Discrimination is an important feature of professional metal detectors.
Discrimination allows the user to ignore trash and otherwise undesirable
objects.
RELIC
A relic is an object of interest by reason of its age or its association with
the past. Many relics are made of iron, but can also be made of bronze
or precious metals.
IRON
Iron is a common, low-grade metal that is an undesirable target in certain
metal detecting applications. Examples of undesirable iron objects are old
cans, pipes, bolts and nails.
Sometimes, the desired target is made of iron. Property markers, for
instance, contain iron. Valuable relics can also be composed of iron;
cannon balls, old armaments and parts of old structures and vehicles can
also be composed of iron.
FERROUS
Metals which are made of, or contain, iron.
PINPOINTING
Pinpointing is the process of finding the exact location of a buried object.
Long-buried metals can appear exactly like the surrounding soil, and can
therefore be very hard to isolate from the soil.
V.C.O.
Meaning “voltage controlled oscillator,” the V.C.O. audio method causes
both the audio pitch and the volume to rise as signal strength increases.
V.C.O. improves the user’s ability to interpret a target’s size and depth.
Very weak signals (for small or very deeply buried objects) have the
faintest volume and the lowest pitch. Larger objects, and those closer to
the searchcoil, will induce a higher volume and higher pitch sound.
GROUND BALANCE
Ground Balancing is the ability of the detector to ignore, or "see through,"
the earth’s naturally occurring minerals, and only sound a tone when a
metal object is detected. This detector incorporates proprietary circuitry to
eliminate false signals from severe ground conditions.

OVERLOAD WARNING
If a metal object or highly magnetic soil are too close to the searchcoil, the
detector will “overload.”
“ ” will appear on the screen and the detector will make a rapid, repeating
mid-tone warning sound.

IRON IDENTIFICATION
Variable Iron Identification & Discrimination
The Eurotek®allows the user not only to discriminate iron targets, but classifies
them by size and signal strength. Ferrous objects will have a Target-ID between
1 and 39.
To eliminate all ferrous objects from detection, set DISC = 39.
OTHER FEATURES
PINPOINTING
Accurate pinpointing takes practice and is best ac com plished by “X-ing”
the target area.
●
1 Once a buried target is identified by a good tone re sponse, continue
sweep ing the coil over the target in a narrowing side to side pattern.
●
2 Take visual note of the place on the ground where the “beep” occurs
as you move the coil slowly from side to side.
●
3 Stop the coil directly over this spot on the ground.
●
4 Now move the coil straight for ward and straight back towards you a
couple of times.
●
5 Again make visual note of the spot on the ground at which the “beep”
occurs.
●
6 If needed, “X” the target at different angles to “zero in” on the exact
spot on the ground at which the “beep” occurs.
REMEMBER: The detector will beep just as the center of the searchcoil
passes directly over the buried object.
If you have difficulty pinpointing very strong sig nals, try lifting the coil
higher off the ground until a weaker, but more concise, signal is heard.
For very weak signals, try moving the coil in short quick sweeps, closer to
the ground.
Consider Purchasing a Pinpointer
When you kneel down to unearth an object, you may find it frustrating as the
object can appear exactly like the surrounding soil. You may hold the object
in your hand, and find it necessary to pass a handful of dirt over the searchcoil
to see if it contains metal. An easier way is to use a handheld pinpointer. It is
a probe-like device which is poked into the ground, making close up
pinpointing a snap, reducing digging time, and minimizing the size of the holes
you will dig. Teknetics®offers a robust and inexpensive pinpointer designed
for this purpose.

THE BASICS OF METAL DETECTING
This metal detector is intended for locating buried metal objects. When
searching for metals, underground or on the surface, you have the following
challenges and objectives:
1. Ignoring signals caused by ground minerals.
2. Ignoring signals caused by metal objects that you do not want to find, like
nails.
3. Identifying a buried metal object before you dig it up.
4. Estimating the size and depth of objects, to facilitate digging them up.
5. Eliminating the effects of electromagnetic interference from other
electronic devices.
Your metal detector is designed with these things in mind.
1. Ground Minerals
All soils contain minerals. Signals from ground minerals can interfere with
the signals from metal objects you want to find. All soils differ, and can differ
greatly, in the type and amount of ground minerals present. The Eurotek®
has a preset ground elimination setting. No user adjustments are required.
2. Trash
If searching for coins, you want to ignore items like aluminum foil and nails.
You can see the Target-ID value of the buried objects, listen to the sounds,
and then decide what you want to dig up. Or you can eliminate unwanted
metals from detection by using the DISCRIMINATION feature.
3. Identifyin Buried Objects
Metal objects are identified by a 2-digit number on the display screen. This scale
has 99 points of resolution, and is an indicator of the relative electrical
conductivity of different objects. igher numbers indicate more conductive
targets. Iron objects, which are usually of lesser value, display lower numbers.
Silver coins, for instance, usually display the highest numbers.
4. Size and Depth of Buried Objects
The 3-digit bar graph indicates the relative depth of a buried metal object. This
bar graph can indicate the relative size of different objects or their distance
from the searchcoil. For a given object, the more distance between it and the
searchcoil, the more bars illuminated.
13
Tar et Detection
Sweep the detector back-and-forth over the
ground.
Keep the searchcoil parallel to the ground as
you sweep; do not lift the searchcoil at the
ends of your sweeps.
Searchcoil motion is required for target
detection.

When objects are detected, the detector will emit a sound and a 2-digit Target-
ID will appear on the screen. Possible Target-IDs range from 1 to 99. This
number represents the electrical conductivity of the target detected; higher
numbers indicate more highly conductive targets.
The 2-digit number indicates the Target-ID of the last object detected. The
Eurotek®has a very fast target response and is able to detect different objects
in very close proximity. Therefore, the Target-ID displayed may change rapidly
as you sweep the searchcoil.
Three seconds after the last Target-ID is displayed, the Target-ID will time-out
and the number will disappear.

DISCRIMINATION SYSTEM
As a general reference, targets fall into the following ranges:
1 - 39 : iron
42 - 48 : foil and small gold nuggets
54 - 57 : gold nuggets, gold rings or targets containing mostly gold
87 - 89 : clad coins or coins of recent vintage
82 - 83 : copper coins
93 - 99 : larger silver coins
ote: There are a wide variety of metals and no target can be identified
for certain until unearthed. This table is for general reference only.
See the table on P. 15 for a more complete listing of Target-ID values for
common metal items.
The Target-ID system and the Audio-ID systems on the Eurotek®operate
independently. Therefore, there may be times when the tones and IDs seem
inconsistent. For example, a very deeply buried target may induce a low tone,
but the signal may be too weak for the visual ID system to determine, with
confidence, a reliable Target-ID number. In this case, the detector may not
register a visual Target-ID, even after the detector has emitted a tone.
2-Tone System
Depending on the type of metal detected, and the DISC setting of the detector,
a buried metal object will induce one of the following audio responses:
o sound: metals eliminated from detection (or discriminated-out), with
the DISC function.
V.C.O. (variable pitch and volume): targets with an ID less than 80.
High Tone: all targets with an ID of 80 or greater.

THE BASICS OF METAL DETECTING
This metal detector is intended for locating buried metal objects. When
searching for metals, underground or on the surface, you have the following
challenges and objectives:
1. Ignoring signals caused by ground minerals.
2. Ignoring signals caused by metal objects that you do not want to find, like
nails.
3. Identifying a buried metal object before you dig it up.
4. Estimating the size and depth of objects, to facilitate digging them up.
5. Eliminating the effects of electromagnetic interference from other
electronic devices.
Your metal detector is designed with these things in mind.
1. Ground Minerals
All soils contain minerals. Signals from ground minerals can interfere with
the signals from metal objects you want to find. All soils differ, and can differ
greatly, in the type and amount of ground minerals present. The Eurotek®
has a preset ground elimination setting. No user adjustments are required.
2. Trash
If searching for coins, you want to ignore items like aluminum foil and nails.
You can see the Target-ID value of the buried objects, listen to the sounds,
and then decide what you want to dig up. Or you can eliminate unwanted
metals from detection by using the DISCRIMINATION feature.
3. Identifyin Buried Objects
Metal objects are identified by a 2-digit number on the display screen. This scale
has 99 points of resolution, and is an indicator of the relative electrical
conductivity of different objects. igher numbers indicate more conductive
targets. Iron objects, which are usually of lesser value, display lower numbers.
Silver coins, for instance, usually display the highest numbers.
4. Size and Depth of Buried Objects
The 3-digit bar graph indicates the relative depth of a buried metal object. This
bar graph can indicate the relative size of different objects or their distance
from the searchcoil. For a given object, the more distance between it and the
searchcoil, the more bars illuminated.
13
Tar et Detection
Sweep the detector back-and-forth over the
ground.
Keep the searchcoil parallel to the ground as
you sweep; do not lift the searchcoil at the
ends of your sweeps.
Searchcoil motion is required for target
detection.
Tar et-ID
When objects are detected, the detector will emit a sound and a 2-digit Target-
ID will appear on the screen. Possible Target-IDs range from 1 to 99. This
number represents the electrical conductivity of the target detected; higher

5. EMI (Electroma netic Interference)
The searchcoil produces a magnetic field and then detects changes in that
magnetic field caused by the presence of metal objects. This magnetic field
that the detector creates is also susceptible to the electromagnetic energy
produced by other electronic devices. Cell phones, cell phone towers,
power lines, microwave ovens, lighting fixtures, TVs, computers, motors,
etc… all produce EMI which can interfere with the detector and cause it to
beep when no metal is present, and sometimes to beep erratically.
The SENSITIVITY control lets you reduce the strength of this magnetic field,
and therefore lessen its susceptibility to EMI. You may want to operate at
maximum strength, but the presence of EMI may make this impossible, so if
you experience erratic behavior or “false” signals, reduce the sensitivity.

Using a detector with headphones
facilitates detection of the weakest
signals and also extends the battery

near traffic or where other dangers are present. This device is to be used with
interconnecting cables/headphone cables shorter than three meters.

HOW DEEP WILL IT GO?
The Eurotek®Metal Detector will detect a coin-sized object to a distance of
about 20 cm (8”) from the searchcoil at maximum sensitivity. Large metal
objects can be detected to a depth of more than a meter. Detectability is directly
related to the size of the metal object -- the larger the object, the deeper it can
be detected.
Accuracy of target identification is also related to distance from the searchcoil.
Targets on the fringe of detection will have less accurate Target-IDs than targets
closer to the searchcoil.
2. DISC (Discrimination)
The DISC control allows the user to eliminate a range of targets from detection.
The user selects a 2-digit number; targets less than or equal to this setting will
not be detected.
Be aware that some irregular targets, and targets on the fringe of the detectable
range, may induce different Target-ID numbers on subsequent passes. As such,
it may be possible that a target intended for elimination may not always be
eliminated.

THE BASICS OF METAL DETECTING
This metal detector is intended for locating buried metal objects. When
searching for metals, underground or on the surface, you have the following
challenges and objectives:
1. Ignoring signals caused by ground minerals.
2. Ignoring signals caused by metal objects that you do not want to find, like
nails.
3. Identifying a buried metal object before you dig it up.
4. Estimating the size and depth of objects, to facilitate digging them up.
5. Eliminating the effects of electromagnetic interference from other
electronic devices.
Your metal detector is designed with these things in mind.
1. Ground Minerals
All soils contain minerals. Signals from ground minerals can interfere with
the signals from metal objects you want to find. All soils differ, and can differ
greatly, in the type and amount of ground minerals present. The Eurotek®
has a preset ground elimination setting. No user adjustments are required.
2. Trash
If searching for coins, you want to ignore items like aluminum foil and nails.
You can see the Target-ID value of the buried objects, listen to the sounds,
and then decide what you want to dig up. Or you can eliminate unwanted
metals from detection by using the DISCRIMINATION feature.
3. Identifyin Buried Objects
Metal objects are identified by a 2-digit number on the display screen. This scale
has 99 points of resolution, and is an indicator of the relative electrical
conductivity of different objects. igher numbers indicate more conductive
targets. Iron objects, which are usually of lesser value, display lower numbers.
Silver coins, for instance, usually display the highest numbers.
4. Size and Depth of Buried Objects
The 3-digit bar graph indicates the relative depth of a buried metal object. This
bar graph can indicate the relative size of different objects or their distance
from the searchcoil. For a given object, the more distance between it and the
searchcoil, the more bars illuminated.
13
Tar et Detection
Sweep the detector back-and-forth over the
ground.
Keep the searchcoil parallel to the ground as
you sweep; do not lift the searchcoil at the
ends of your sweeps.
Searchcoil motion is required for target
detection.
Tar et-ID
When objects are detected, the detector will emit a sound and a 2-digit Target-
ID will appear on the screen. Possible Target-IDs range from 1 to 99. This
number represents the electrical conductivity of the target detected; higher
numbers indicate more highly conductive targets.
The 2-digit number indicates the Target-ID of the last object detected. The
Eurotek®has a very fast target response and is able to detect different objects
in very close proximity. Therefore, the Target-ID displayed may change rapidly
as you sweep the searchcoil.
Three seconds after the last Target-ID is displayed, the Target-ID will time-out
and the number will disappear.

DISCRIMINATION SYSTEM
As a general reference, targets fall into the following ranges:
1 - 39 : iron
42 - 48 : foil and small gold nuggets
54 - 57 : gold nuggets, gold rings or targets containing mostly gold
87 - 89 : clad coins or coins of recent vintage
82 - 83 : copper coins
93 - 99 : larger silver coins
ote: There are a wide variety of metals and no target can be identified
for certain until unearthed. This table is for general reference only.
See the table on P. 15 for a more complete listing of Target-ID values for
common metal items.
The Target-ID system and the Audio-ID systems on the Eurotek®operate
independently. Therefore, there may be times when the tones and IDs seem
inconsistent. For example, a very deeply buried target may induce a low tone,
but the signal may be too weak for the visual ID system to determine, with
confidence, a reliable Target-ID number. In this case, the detector may not
register a visual Target-ID, even after the detector has emitted a tone.
2-Tone System
Depending on the type of metal detected, and the DISC setting of the detector,
a buried metal object will induce one of the following audio responses:
o sound: metals eliminated from detection (or discriminated-out), with
the DISC function.
V.C.O. (variable pitch and volume): targets with an ID less than 80.
High Tone: all targets with an ID of 80 or greater.

THE BASICS OF METAL DETECTING
This metal detector is intended for locating buried metal objects. When
searching for metals, underground or on the surface, you have the following
challenges and objectives:
1. Ignoring signals caused by ground minerals.
2. Ignoring signals caused by metal objects that you do not want to find, like
nails.
3. Identifying a buried metal object before you dig it up.
4. Estimating the size and depth of objects, to facilitate digging them up.
5. Eliminating the effects of electromagnetic interference from other
electronic devices.
Your metal detector is designed with these things in mind.
1. Ground Minerals
All soils contain minerals. Signals from ground minerals can interfere with
the signals from metal objects you want to find. All soils differ, and can differ
greatly, in the type and amount of ground minerals present. The Eurotek®
has a preset ground elimination setting. No user adjustments are required.
2. Trash
If searching for coins, you want to ignore items like aluminum foil and nails.
You can see the Target-ID value of the buried objects, listen to the sounds,
and then decide what you want to dig up. Or you can eliminate unwanted
metals from detection by using the DISCRIMINATION feature.
3. Identifyin Buried Objects
Metal objects are identified by a 2-digit number on the display screen. This scale
has 99 points of resolution, and is an indicator of the relative electrical
conductivity of different objects. igher numbers indicate more conductive
targets. Iron objects, which are usually of lesser value, display lower numbers.
Silver coins, for instance, usually display the highest numbers.
4. Size and Depth of Buried Objects
The 3-digit bar graph indicates the relative depth of a buried metal object. This
bar graph can indicate the relative size of different objects or their distance
from the searchcoil. For a given object, the more distance between it and the
searchcoil, the more bars illuminated.
13
Tar et Detection
Sweep the detector back-and-forth over the
ground.
Keep the searchcoil parallel to the ground as
you sweep; do not lift the searchcoil at the
ends of your sweeps.
Searchcoil motion is required for target
detection.
Tar et-ID
When objects are detected, the detector will emit a sound and a 2-digit Target-
ID will appear on the screen. Possible Target-IDs range from 1 to 99. This
number represents the electrical conductivity of the target detected; higher
numbers indicate more highly conductive targets.
The 2-digit number indicates the Target-ID of the last object detected. The
Eurotek®has a very fast target response and is able to detect different objects
in very close proximity. Therefore, the Target-ID displayed may change rapidly
as you sweep the searchcoil.
Three seconds after the last Target-ID is displayed, the Target-ID will time-out
and the number will disappear.

IRON IDENTIFICATION
Variable Iron Identification & Discrimination
The Eurotek®allows the user not only to discriminate iron targets, but classifies
them by size and signal strength. Ferrous objects will have a Target-ID between
1 and 39.
To eliminate all ferrous objects from detection, set DISC = 39.
OTHER FEATURES
PINPOINTING
Accurate pinpointing takes practice and is best ac com plished by “X-ing”
the target area.
●
1 Once a buried target is identified by a good tone re sponse, continue
sweep ing the coil over the target in a narrowing side to side pattern.
●
2 Take visual note of the place on the ground where the “beep” occurs
as you move the coil slowly from side to side.
●
3 Stop the coil directly over this spot on the ground.
●
4 Now move the coil straight for ward and straight back towards you a
couple of times.
●
5 Again make visual note of the spot on the ground at which the “beep”
occurs.
●
6 If needed, “X” the target at different angles to “zero in” on the exact
spot on the ground at which the “beep” occurs.
REMEMBER: The detector will beep just as the center of the searchcoil
passes directly over the buried object.
If you have difficulty pinpointing very strong sig nals, try lifting the coil
higher off the ground until a weaker, but more concise, signal is heard.
For very weak signals, try moving the coil in short quick sweeps, closer to
the ground.
Consider Purchasing a Pinpointer
When you kneel down to unearth an object, you may find it frustrating as the
object can appear exactly like the surrounding soil. You may hold the object
in your hand, and find it necessary to pass a handful of dirt over the searchcoil
to see if it contains metal. An easier way is to use a handheld pinpointer. It is
a probe-like device which is poked into the ground, making close up
pinpointing a snap, reducing digging time, and minimizing the size of the holes
you will dig. Teknetics®offers a robust and inexpensive pinpointer designed
for this purpose.

object can appear exactly like the surrounding soil. You may hold the object
in your hand, and find it necessary to pass a handful of dirt over the searchcoil
to see if it contains metal. An easier way is to use a handheld pinpointer. It is
a probe-like device which is poked into the ground, making close up
pinpointing a snap, reducing digging time, and minimizing the size of the holes
you will dig. Teknetics®offers a robust and inexpensive pinpointer designed
for this purpose.

TERMINOLOGY
The following terms are used throughout the manual, and are standard
terminology among detectorists.
ELIMINATION
Reference to a metal being "eliminated" means that the detector will not
emit a tone, nor display a Target-ID, when a metal object passes through
the searchcoil’s detection field.
DISCRIMINATION
When the detector emits different tones for different types of metals, and
when the detector "eliminates" certain metals, we refer to this as the
detector "discriminating" among different types of metals.
Discrimination is an important feature of professional metal detectors.
Discrimination allows the user to ignore trash and otherwise undesirable
objects.
RELIC
A relic is an object of interest by reason of its age or its association with
the past. Many relics are made of iron, but can also be made of bronze
or precious metals.
IRON
Iron is a common, low-grade metal that is an undesirable target in certain
metal detecting applications. Examples of undesirable iron objects are old
cans, pipes, bolts and nails.
Sometimes, the desired target is made of iron. Property markers, for
instance, contain iron. Valuable relics can also be composed of iron;
cannon balls, old armaments and parts of old structures and vehicles can
also be composed of iron.
FERROUS
Metals which are made of, or contain, iron.
PINPOINTING
Pinpointing is the process of finding the exact location of a buried object.
Long-buried metals can appear exactly like the surrounding soil, and can
therefore be very hard to isolate from the soil.
V.C.O.
Meaning “voltage controlled oscillator,” the V.C.O. audio method causes
both the audio pitch and the volume to rise as signal strength increases.
V.C.O. improves the user’s ability to interpret a target’s size and depth.
Very weak signals (for small or very deeply buried objects) have the
faintest volume and the lowest pitch. Larger objects, and those closer to
the searchcoil, will induce a higher volume and higher pitch sound.
GROUND BALANCE
Ground Balancing is the ability of the detector to ignore, or "see through,"
the earth’s naturally occurring minerals, and only sound a tone when a
metal object is detected. This detector incorporates proprietary circuitry to
eliminate false signals from severe ground conditions.
