Many things such as Power lines,
Electric fences even buildings can
cause Electrical Interference &
Falsing when your detector is in
use and there is no metal under
the coil.
Users can reduce the sensitivity by
pressing on the downward triangle
button directly.Users can increase
sensitivity when searching in low
Interference Situations. It is always
best to maintain sensitivity as high
as is possible to achieve best
depth.

By pressing on the PINPOINT
button(the round button with cross
sign), the detector will enter a non-
motion mode and alarm to target
without moving the coil. Users can
use this function to pinpoint target
with cross action as illustrated.
We strongly recommend to select

The Q40 comes with Ground Balancing (GB) function. We recommend GB
every time you change the detecting area. Make sure you have no metal
targets under the coil while GB.
Press and hold the square button while pumping the coil 6” (15cm) height
to 1” above the ground. While pumping the coil the ground condition will
indicate two numbers, when these settle down and are stable GB is
complete.The ground mineralization condition is indicated by the round bar
with FE%. The GC with two digits indicate the ground cancelling level. If it is
not possible to GB on highly mineralized land you can use the GC function
in the menu to set it manually.
