Relic hunters, prospectors and others may adapt

one of these to hunt for specific targets.

Any personal preference adjustments you have set

in the GTAx 550 with the various operating functions

will be retained when the detector is turned off.

Because ground and / or atmospheric conditions

can vary from place to place, it may be necessary

for you to adjust DEPTH (Sensitivity) occasionally.

Remember that you can instantly restore the

factory-set levels of all its controls. Simply press

and hold the POWER touchpad for approximately

ten seconds, or until the detector beeps.

Operating Mode Descriptions

The GTAx 550 is a slow-motion detector with precise

ground balance. The searchcoil can be hovered

over a target for only a few seconds because of

automatic circuitry. It should always be kept moving

slightly for proper target detection to occur, except

when the pinpoint touchpad is pressed. Detection

will then continue with the touchpad depressed,

even when the searchcoil is stationary.
