Like any electronic device, the Orbitor Prospector 100 may occasionally experience issues. Here are some common problems and solutions:
Eliminates pull-tabs and nickel coins, responding primarily to highly conductive metals like copper, silver, and gold. 3. Visual Viewmeter Function: Displays signal strength.
Adjusts the signal amplification. Turn this up to maximize depth. Turn it down if you experience erratic false signals caused by highly mineralized soil or nearby electrical interference.
Unlike many other low-end detectors, the Prospector 100 uses three distinct tones to indicate signal strength. As the signal strength increases, the audio tone will change from a low pitch to a high, clear tone. This is particularly useful in noisy environments. Orbitor Prospector 100 Metal Detector Manual
The search coil is completely waterproof. However, the control housing is not waterproof. Never submerge the control box.
Filters out unwanted trash metals like iron and aluminum foil. Low Setting: Detects all metals (including nails and wire).
Below is a comprehensive guide to understanding its features, setup, and operation. Like any electronic device, the Orbitor Prospector 100
Wave the nickel or coin; the unit should produce a clear tone. C. The Art of Swinging (Field Technique)
One plastic wing nut, one threaded plastic bolt, and two rubber washers. User Manual: This reference documentation. Technical Specifications Operating Frequency: 5.5 kHz to 6.5 kHz
After a day of hunting, wipe down the stem and coil with a damp cloth to remove mud, salt, or sand. Avoid getting moisture into the control housing. Never use abrasive cleaners or chemical solvents on the display face or plastics. Visual Viewmeter Function: Displays signal strength
The is an entry-level, motion-detection metal detector designed for hobbyists searching for coins, jewelry, and relics. Because it uses "Motion Detection Technology," the search coil must be in constant motion over a target to trigger a signal. Quick Setup Guide
Replace with a brand-new 9V alkaline battery. Check the +/- orientation.
Attach the lower stem to the search coil using the provided plastic bolt and nut.
