OWNER’S MANUAL The Discovery 2200 is a professional metal detector . While the most difficult aspects of metal detecting have been automated, it is a sophisticated electronic device which requires an understanding of some basic features and metal detecting concepts.

3 TERMINOLOGY The following terms are used throughout the manual, and are standard terminology among detectorists. ELIMINA TION Reference to a metal being "eliminated" means that the detector will not emit a tone, nor light up an indicator , when a specified object passes through the coil’ s detection field.
4 ASSEMBL Y Assembly is easy and requires no tools. ● 1 Position the lower stem (the straight tube) with the silver button toward the back. Using the bolt and knurled knob, attach the search coil to the plastic extension protruding from the lower stem.
5 ASSEMBL Y SE N S IT IV ITY D IS C R IM IN A TIO N Adjusting the Arm Rest Most people will find the standard position of the arm rest very comfortable. V ery large forearms and short forearms (particularly children’ s arms), can be accommodated by moving the arm rest forward.
6 Use ALKALINE batteries only . To install the batteries: ● 1 Remove the battery cover by disengaging the clip at the back. ● 2 Align the polarity of the batteries correctly , with the positive "+" toward the coil plug connection, as indicated by the + and – indicators on the housing.
7 Q UICK-ST AR T DEMONSTRA TION I. Supplies Needed • A Nail • A Quarter • A Pull-T ab from a beverage can • A Zinc Penny (dated after 1982) II. Position the Detector a. Place the detector on a table, with the search coil hanging over the edge.
8 VI. W ave the Nail over the Search Coil a. The Nail will not be detected. b. The Nail has been "Discriminated Out." VII. Press the “DISCRIMINA TION- ▲ ” touchpad twice. Three “R”s are now displayed. VIII. W ave all objects over the Search Coil The Nail and Pull-T ab will not be detected.
9 BASIC OPERA TION POWERING UP Press the POWER touch pad. • The detector will beep 4 times • All display segments will illuminate momentarily • The SENSITIVITY and BA TTERY indicators will stay illuminated SENSITIVITY The detector’ s default sensitivity will be indicated with two segments.
10 DEF AUL T OPERA TION The detector defaults to ALL MET AL mode after powering on. In this mode, all types of metals will be detected. An object’ s probable identification is indicated by the arrows at the top of the display .
11 To increase the level of discrimination, press the DISCRIMINA TION ▲ touch pad. Each time the ▲ pad is depressed, an additional "R" will appear , thus eliminating from detection the objects which fall into the corresponding categories.
12 BASIC OPERA TION continued ZAP The ZAP control is a convenient way to eliminate a known undesirable metal object from detection. To demonstrate the ZAP control: 1) Set the detector in All-Metal Mode Note: ZAP functions in all modes, but is best demonstrated first from the All-Metal Mode.
13 AUDIO T ARGET IDENTIFICA TION While the LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) is very accurate in identifying buried objects, the user in the field does not always maintain the display screen in his field of vision. Therefore, we have incorporated an audio feedback mechanism to alert the user to the nature of buried objects.
14 DEPTH AND T ARGET DISPLA Y READING THE DISPLA Y The Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) shows the PROBABLE identification of the targeted metal, as well as the PROBABLE depth of the target, in inches. The detector will register a repeated, unchanging target identification when a buried target has been located and identified.
15 ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE The principle use for the Sensitivity Control is to eliminate Electromagnetic Interference (EMI). A hobby metal detector is an extremely sensitive device; the search coil creates its own magnetic field and acts like an antenna.
16 IN THE FIELD TECHNIQUES When pinpointing a target, try drawing an “X”, as illustrated, over where the tone is induced. PINPOINTING Accurate pinpointing takes practice and is best accomplished by “X-ing” the target area.
17 Swing the search coil slowly , overlapping each sweep as you move forward. It is important to sweep the coil at a consistent speed over the ground as you search. After identifying a target, your sweep technique can help in identifying both the location and the nature of the target.
18 angles, you many have encountered multiple objects. If you are new to the hobby , you may want to dig all targets at first. With practice in the field, you will learn to better discern the nature of buried objects by the nature of the detector’ s response.
19 TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE SYMPTOM CAUSE SOLUTION Detector chatters • Using detector • Use detector or beeps erratically indoors outdoors only • Using detector near • Move away power lines from.
