SWING
Swing the coil a p p r o x 4 c m above the ground. Overlap the last swing to avoid missing any target.
PINPOINTING
Use a Xpointer to help you find the target faster. Simply use the tip of the Xpointer to “sniff” the target covered by dirt.
XING
When you hear a confident high tone, press and hold the pinpoint button to locate the target precisely.
DIGGING
Use a Digger to dig out the soil. Try to keep the dig pattern as small as possible. Remember to cover it when you finish.

HEADPHONES & RECHARGE
04:00Hr FULL
Take o ff moi s t u re an d dust cover to access ports. Put it back to place to avoid damage by liquid or dirt.
You can use headphones, earphones with 3.5mm diameter type connector. Set to low audio volume b e f o r e w e a r y o u r headphones to avid hearing damage.
Connect the micro USB cable to a wall charger with USB port.The battery indicator will stop flashing when fully charged. Please allow 4 hours to refresh the X10.

UNDERSTANDING
TARGET ID & INDICATION BARS
X10 categorizes metal signals into different digit from 1 to 99 based on the metal target’s conductivity range. The higher conductivity the higher digit you will get from the display. For better visualize effect we use indication bars to indicate which area the metal fall into. For example a US quarter or silver coin will be indicated as 84 together with the fifth bar. The detection and processing system will be affected by soil condition, trashy metal items. Depends on the strength of signal the detector indicates the depth of the target.
Iron ~ Gold /Bronze ~ Silver
20 ~ 40 ~ 60 ~ 80 ~ 99
Low Middle High

GROUND BALANCE
Different soil mineralization may vary. Ground

noise and be more focused on the real target. Hold the GB button and pumping above ground to

beep will remind you the GB process is finished. It will not be done when metal items been detected during the process. Ground Phase conditions can change from location to

apart.You can repeat the GB process if the soil type changed or the last value is not suitable. There is not need to
• adjust the GB setting in
low or non- mineralized ground to get the best stability.
About 15cm/6”
SENSITIVITY
The sensitivity level is also known as detectors power level. It controls the signal gain(low gain 1~30, mid gain 31~60, high gain 61~99) To detect deeper target in low mineralized soil type, you can set the sensitivity higher. The most commonly used sensitivity levels range from 60 to 90. It may be necessary to reduce the level if there is too much interference, such as buried power lines, fences, radio-relay stations, mobile telephones, computers, televisions, etc.
You ca n set t he s en si ti vity lowe r when
• detecting in highly mineralized ground or
saltwater. Sensitivity setting of each detection mode is
• isolated with no connection.
Do not test your device in your home as there
• is lot of interference in urban environments.

PROGRAMING
TONES
X10 output high tone and middle tone depends on the target ID so you can use your ear to make quick decision. Most experienced detectorists use this technics.
C1: one mid tone without iron bass C2: one mid tone with iron bass C3: 3 tones bass mid and high C4: 4 tones C5: 5 tones C6: pitch tones or variable tones depends on signal strength
THRESHOLD
Threshold function is only available for All Metal mode. It controls the background noise level so you can hear more signals. You can adjust it from -9 to +9. The higher digit will allow you to hear more weak signal from target. To detect more silently you can set the digit lower. Press up / down button once for fine adjustment. Press and hold button to change the digit faster.
TARGET ID SELECTION (Discrimination)
When the function is selected, one of the bars will start flashing, use up or down button to move the flashing bar forth or back, press MENU button to select or deselect the bar. Press PINPOINT button to return to detecting condition. Some of valuable target may mixed with trashy zones such as some coins and alloys.

PRODUCTS CARE
NOTICE! Do not twist the coil tail and connector to avoid wire damage. NOTICE! Do not store the device where prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures can
occur to avoid device damage. NOTICE! Never use a hard or sharp object to operate the touch pad, or damage may result. NOTICE! Avoid chemical cleaners, solvents, and insect repellents that can damage plastic
components and finishes.
NOTICE! Secure the weather cap tightly to prevent damage to the USB port. NOTICE! Even small amounts of sweat or moisture can cause corrosion of the electrical
contacts when connected to a charger.
CLEAN THE DETECTOR
Wipe the device using a cloth dampened with a mild detergent solution.
• Wipe it dry. After cleaning, allow the device to dry completely.
• Use a soft, clean, lint-free cloth. If necessary, lightly dampen the cloth with water.
• If using a dampened cloth, turn off the device and disconnect the device from power.
• Gently wipe the screen with the cloth.
• It can withstand heavy rain. Submersion in water can cause damage to the device.
