In order to use the device for a maximum long time and without problems, as well as
to be able to use all of its options, please read carefully the whole instruction
manual and observe the directions in it.

The standard set of VEGA comprises:

- searching frame of 1x1m. /1,20x1,20m/

- control unit with built in accumulator;

- automatic charger for 220 V;

- detailed instruction manual for o peration.

If any of these items are missing, immediately inform us, or our autori zed dealer
where you purchased your detector.

VEGA has the following parts for control:

- “ON / VOLUME” – switches on the detector and volume control.

- “THERESHOLD” – used to adjust threshold level. Rotate the controller
counter-clockwise to low position to avoid interference. Clockwise rotate
the controller to have high hum level.

- “DELAY” – sampling delay control knob.

- “GND / DISC” – dual control knob – adjust ground balance in ALL METAL mode, and
discrimination in DISC mode.

- Button “DISC” – switch on and switch off DISC mode

- Button

“

MODE

” – toggling between

Dynamyc

and

Static

modes

- Button "TUNE" – serves for automatic setting of the device to ground
conditions of terrain where it works in Static mode.

- Button “LIGHT” – switch on and switch off LCD back light.

- Jack CHARGE – to charging storage batteries

- LCD for graphic display pointing level of signal and discrimination, selected modes and the
batteries status.

1. Assembling of the device:
Assembling the VEGA is simple and you don’t need any special tools.

When use the round coil 14” (36cm.): The bearing rod is assembled by inserting of the
lower part into the upper one. Choose the desired length of the whole construction and the
fixing clamp is tightened between both parts of the bearing rod. The lower part of the
bearing rod is put with the opening between the ears of the coil and the plastic bolt is
tightened by choosing the position of the coil to be parallel to the ground surface. Don't
over-tighten the plastic bolt and nut to not damage the threading of the bolt! The coil cable
is wind up tightly around the bearing rod and is switched to the terminal of the monitor unit.
Upon switching of the cable of the coil to the monitor unit, tighten the well the metal nut of
the coupling to the terminal of the box. Upon switching off, unscrew the nut completely and
pull out the coupling without pulling or twisting the cable of the coil. This way, you will
prevent the cable and the conductors in it from breakdown or short circuit. Finally adjust
search coil angle to your preference and you are ready.
NOTE: Do not allow the cable to flop loosely over the search coil. Since the detector

is sensitive enough to „see“ the tiny wires in the cable, a floppy cable can cause false

signals as the search coil senses the moving wires.

When use the search frames 1x1m. or bigger: The search frame should be held
approximately 4 to 6 inch (10 to 15cm.) to ground surface while searching. Do not
allow one end of the frame to be higher than the other. Make sure that no large metal
objects are close to the search frame for initial adjustment. Also, check your shoes or
boots since most of them contain metal parts and you would receive a signal response any
time you step near to the coil.
In order to avoid interference of the metal parts of the electronic unit, be sure to carry the

Pulse Master Pro on the side of your body that is away from the search frame.

1. Setting and use VEGA:

Searching frame is assembled and is placed on the ground paying attention to the range
and there don't have to be any metal objects. The cable is sub - connected to the device.
Turn on the detector by rotating “VOLUME” knob clockwise to "ON" position
.
