Garrett Metal Detectors SUPER SCANNER® V
5
COMPONENTS / FUNCTION
3-Way Power Switch—Has two On positions
and a central Off position. When the Power Switch
is pressed forward, the Super Scanner will sound an
audible alert upon detection of any metal and the red
Light Alert will appear. When the switch is pressed
backward, the Super Scanner will vibrate upon
detection of any metal and no sound will be heard
even though the red Light Alert will appear. Power is
turned off when the switch is in the central position.
Light Alerts—The rear green light illuminates
whenever the detector is operating. The red light,
forward most of the three lights, illuminates whenever
metal is detected. The center amber light illuminates
when battery power becomes low and the battery
should be recharged or replaced.
Audio Alert—The speaker provides a clearly
audible sound whenever metal is detected. The
Audio Alert sounds only when the Power Switch is
pressed forward.
Vibrating Alert—The vibration mode is activated
when the Power Switch is pressed backward. The
unit’s handle will vibrate and the red light will alert
the operator whenever metal is detected.
Interference Elimination Button—The detector
is factory set for a high level of sensitivity to detect
the smallest of items. This high level of sensitivity
may produce alarms when approaching a floor
containing rebar. Press and hold this button to
decrease sensitivity to a level that does not respond
to the rebar. Release button and detector returns to
normal sensitivity.
Earphone/Recharger Jack—An earphone is
available (see Accessories) for “silent” operation
or for use in noisy environments. The rechargeable
NiMH battery is also recharged through this jack. Do
not attempt to recharge the conventional batteries.
Attempting this will damage the detector. (See
Accessories for Rechargeable Battery Kit.)
Safety Sling—Used to assist the operator in
convenient handling of the Super Scanner.
