TECHNICAL INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on the purchase of your ORX and welcome to the world of research and exploration.
You have invested in a high-tech metal detector capable of exceptional performance. The ORX has been designed and manufactured in France.
The ORX dierent wireless elements communicating via a digital radio link. In this new design the coil and remote control have been made independent of each other through the integration of very compact high-capacity lithium batteries.
An ultra-miniature electronic circuit, incorporated in the search coil, digitises and analyses the signals. The signal is processed at the source and not conveyed via a wire link, which greatly improves data quality.
Incorporating components from leading-edge technologies such as scientic instrumentation, has enabled us to produce a powerful, rapid, lightweight, compact and fully controllable digital detector.
Whether you are an experienced user or a beginner, the ORX lets you decide whether or not to modify any of its remote control settings. Powerful pre-congured factory programs enable all users to get started immediately, while expert detectorists can choose more advanced parameters via the intuitive interface.
is innovative in terms of metal detector design as it oers an unique system based on
Lastly, the new patented XP stem has the combined advantages of an S-shaped stem and a straight telescopic stem. It enables you to deploy or fold away the device in just a few seconds, and to change the coil in an instant.
So now you’re ready for a new adventure !

The Reactivity is a vital setting that determines the detector’s performance in terms of how quickly it analyses the signal from detected targets, and its ability to separate the signals from several targets located close together. This is also known as Recovery speed. If the soil contains a great deal of iron, hot rocks or other mineralised debris, soil penetration is generally reduced. high degree of reactivity which will help you speed up the analysis of signals. However if the ground is "clean", it is better to reduce the Reactivity and sweep slower. The machine will be more sensitive to deep masses and obtain better ground penetration.

GROUND
General features
Dierent levels of soil mineralisation can aect the performance of your detector. For example, this may be due to natural magnetic mineralisation such as iron oxide, hot rocks and magnetite, or sporadic mineralisation from sites of ancient habitation. Other magnetic items include : hearths, pottery, hot rocks, slag etc. You may also experience high mineralisation from black sand and electrically conductive salt water (depending on the beach region).
If your ground is not mineralized (check mineralisation bargraph below), your ground balance to a level below 88 : because the ground has not given a signicant spurious echo indicating low mineralisation levels.

HOW TO EXTEND DURABILITY OF THE LITHIUM BATTERY ?
The LiPo batteries are designed to take hundreds of charges and can last 5 to 10 years in your detector, if used correctly :
- Long term storage of fully discharged batteries or fully charged batteries may reduce their overall durability.
- If you wish to place your machine in storage, rst charge the batteries to half of their capacity (40 to 70%)
- Perform a discharge / charge cycle at least once every two months.
PRECAUTIONS
Acceptable ambient temperature during charging: from 0°C to + 35°C Maximum. Recommended storage temperature : 25°C.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
ADVICE BEFORE BEGINNING DETECTING
Metal detecting is a fascinating leisure activity that can bring you a lot of satisfaction. However, it requires a minimum of learning in order to get the most enjoyment. Begin by familiarising yourself with your equipment and its operation on a suitable practice ground. To do this, we recommend that you take an assortment of dierent objects : coins, everyday items, metal rubbish etc. Then nd a patch of ground relatively free from metal pollution and far away from any electromagnetic interference (high voltage power lines, electric fences, domestic appliances etc.). For instance, your garden would probably be one of the most unsuitable places to begin as there is too much domestic waste in the vicinity.
Arrange your objects on the ground then, take some time to observe your device’s reactions when it passes over each target.

Cible
LOCATING A TARGET USING CROSSED SWEEPS IN MOTION MODE
If you are having diculty locating the target then sweep the place where you heard the sound. Move a quarter turn around the spot and begin sweeping again in the same way. You should then locate the precise zone containing your target at the intersection of the two sweeps where the sound is loudest.
TROUBLESHOOTING
You become aware of abnormal performance, instability, false signals, interference, for no apparent reason
CAUSES SOLUTIONS
Sensitivity is too high.
You are in a zone with a lot of interference (high-voltage power lines, electric transformer, electric fence).
There is a storm nearby and the electromagnetic discharges of lightning are interfering with the detector.
You are close to other working metal detectors.
The ground balance is set too low. Reset it.
The ground is heavily infested with iron and other metals.
The coil does not switch on, unlike the remote control and the headphones
CAUSES SOLUTIONS
Lower it (pg 05).
Lower the sensitivity change frequency/ frequency shift or move to a dierent zone.
Switch o and wait for the storm to pass.
Change or shift the frequency (pg 05) or move further away.
Adjust it (pg 08).
Find a less infested place. Don’t practice in your garden !
You have a dierent coil selected in the menu : OPTION / COIL ON the remote control or in the menu COIL on the headphones.
The serial number of the coil that you had entered in the remote control was incorrect or was changed inadvertently.
The coil battery is discharged.
The coil is defective.
Select the corresponding coil (pg 10).
Check the coil’s serial number (pg 10).paying attention to D & O also B & 8.
Recharge it.
Contact your reseller.
There is no sound in the headphones when passing over a target and pressing the buttons generates no audible beep
CAUSES SOLUTIONS
The backphone is faulty.
The earpiece is faulty, for example its keypad was poorly reconnected to the circuit after being removed, or the audio contacts are faulty or dirty.
Change it, it is easy to replace (pg 17 ).
Contact your reseller.

RECOMMENDATION TO DETECTORISTS / THE LAW
DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY EU
Detecting is an activity which, like other leisure activities, requires a few general guidelines. These recommendations will enable everyone to enjoy their hobby to the full while respecting laws, places, the environment and other people.
- Ensure you are informed of current legislation relating to discovery of treasure in order to abide by the law.
- Declare any fortuitous archaeological discoveries to the local authorities (town hall) of the discovery site within 48 hours.
- Before prospecting on a site, obtain permission from its owner(s) or guardian(s).
- Respect the natural environment in which you are prospecting and any other places to which you need access.
- Systematically back-ll any holes you make so as to leave a site exactly how you found it.
- Keep any rubbish you nd in order to dispose of it in a dustbin.
Avoid detecting in areas where battles are known to have taken place during wartime. Exercise extreme caution with any suspect object resembling munitions, grenades, mines, shells, bombs, etc. and notify the relevent authorities (police, local authorities, etc.) of any such object you nd.
Remember that you are an ambassador for metal detecting and it is important that you convey a positive image !

ORX is a precision device, designed to be as robust as possible. Despite this, it is important to take care of it and exercise certain precautions in order to prolong its life :
- Do not store your device for long periods with discharged batteries. Ideally you should discharge/recharge the batteries at least once a month, and if possible store them 40 to 70% charged.
- Do not expose your detector to extreme temperatures, particularly inside a car in full sun.
- Do not expose your detector to the sun without reason when it is not being used.
- When you switch on the detector ensure that the coil is not near any metal objects.
- The remote control of your detector is not waterproof. In wet weather be sure to protect it !
- Use the storage case that is supplied with the headphones and never carry them at the bottom of a bag without protection.
- Use the case that is supplied with the remote control to protect it in adverse conditions, and when the detector is stored away.
- Do not use solvents or alcohol to clean the detector. Soapy water is sucient.
- Depending on how you use your detector, it may be advisable to clean its elements regularly. A damp cloth can be used to clean the non-waterproof parts (headphones and remote control).
- After use, remove any dirt from the stem’s locking mechanisms.
- The equipment must be recharged using a SELV LPS power supply.
