1. Start by setting the GND BAL in the P Region position and raise the search coil to a
height of about 1.0-1.20 m above the ground. Press the GND TRAC button several
times to stabilize the device for more effective operation.
2. Lower the search coil to a height of about 2-3 cm above the ground and raise it
again to a height of about 1.0-1.20 m. If the device does not beep, this means it has

adjust the GND BAL again.
3. Lift the search coil a little into the air, slightly turn the GND BALL counterclockwise.
Press GND TRAC several times. Then repeat step 2. If the device continues to beep,
repeat the procedure until the beeping stops.
