INSTRUCTIONS VLF.TR 1200-8 INTRODUCTION IMPORTANT To protect your investment complete both sections of the guarantee at the back of this instruction manual and return the reply-paid portion to C-Scope. This is particularly important in order to obtain the free second year parts guarantee. Please retain the packing box. In the event your detector should ever require service this package will be most suitable for postal protection. C-Scope detectors are recognised as the finest metal detectors available.

lights give better overall performance when dipped and employing less power. Reduction of the sensitivity control may also be necessary to reduce instability of the signal when caused by interference from electrical. radio or other electronic transmissions. C. FUNCTION CONTROL This switch allows the user to choose a mode setting most suited to a particular site. The 1200-8 has two main modes of operation. 1. 2.
the rYete, (and remain) the batteries need to be renewed. (If the batteries give a low reading at the beginning of an outing, it may be that during searching, after some use, the batteries will fall below the minimum level for correct operating.) A penlight battery pack with 6 HP7 each with a nominal voltage of 1Y:,v make up the 9 volt pack. The detector will continue to function until the voltage falls below 6 volts.

In the METER DISCRIMINATE mode the DISCRIMINATE LEVEL does·notfunction In the METER DISCRIMINATE mode the detector operates through two Channels. The audio channel ground excludes, and the meter channel discriminates. Both these channels are pre-set so no adjustments are necessary. Lower the search head to the ground.

To analyse the find: a rejected object will give a swing to the left on the meter and a decrease in audio response; a worthwhile target will give a swing to the right on the meter and an increase in audio response. The Discriminate Level may be fine tuned in each of the three main D modes by varying the Discriminate level control. The Sensitivity Level may be varied but 0 is the recommended level in the Analytical Mode.
After using your detector in a hostile environment (salt water, sand etc.) the exterior parts of the casing should be wiped with a damp cloth, paying particular attention to the head, and carefully wiped dry. Foreign particles in the control box can be removed by brushing carefUlly (or with compressed air or vacuum cleaner). Salt Damage If you use your detector continually in a salty environment, particularly when the wind is blowing off the sea, salty air can penetrate the control box.

Do yourself and the community a favour by taking all the rusty junk you find to the nearest litter bin. Do not trespass. Ask permission before venturing on to any private land. Report all unusual historical finds to the local museum and get expert help jf you accidentally discover a site of archaeological interest.
One area to concentrate·on is under skirting boards, where coins or rings might have rolled. Doorways too, may prove rewarding 8$ many money'transactions take place there. Old fireplace and chimeys should be well scanned with the detector, as these are favourites for finding hoards, etc. The floor boards should be examined carefully and special attention paid to short lengths which could conceal caches. It is also surprising how much money is lost in old chairs, so give them a look over.
