This manual provides comprehensive instructions for assembling, operating, and maintaining your ACE 400i to ensure optimal performance and longevity.

تتضمن الميزات الرئيسية ما يلي:

• Target Conductivity Indication: A numerical display (1-100) helps identify the probable nature of the target.
• آيرون أوديو: Allows users to hear discriminated ferrous targets, aiding in distinguishing valuable items from trash.
• Increased Frequency (10 kHz): Provides enhanced detection depth and sensitivity to smaller targets.
• تعديل التردد: Helps eliminate interference when detecting near other metal detectors or electrical sources.
• التمييز من الدرجة الأولى: Customize discrimination patterns to ignore unwanted metals.
• Pinpoint Function: Precisely locate targets for easier recovery.
• تصميم خفيف الوزن: Weighing approximately 1.32 kg, it is comfortable for extended use.

4. التجميع والإعداد

Follow these steps to assemble your Garrett ACE 400i metal detector:

1. قم بربط ملف البحث:

   Align the search coil with the lower stem. Insert the plastic bolt through the holes on the coil and stem, then secure it with the wing nut. Ensure the coil cable is wrapped snugly around the lower and middle stems.

2. ربط صندوق التحكم:

   Slide the control box onto the upper shaft. Secure it using the provided cam-locks. The new cam-lock rings prevent movement and play over time.

3. أدخل البطاريات:

   Open the battery compartment on the control box. Insert four (4) AA batteries, ensuring correct polarity. Close the compartment securely.

4. Adjust Length and Arm Cuff:

   Adjust the length of the shaft to a comfortable height, allowing the search coil to be parallel to the ground when you are standing upright. Adjust the arm cuff for a snug but comfortable fit on your forearm.

5. توصيل كابل الملف:

   Plug the search coil cable connector into the corresponding port on the control box. Ensure a secure connection.

5. تعليمات التشغيل

Familiarize yourself with the control panel and its functions before beginning your search.

5.1. تشغيل / إيقاف التشغيل

اضغط مع الاستمرار على قوة button to turn the detector on or off. The detector will power on in the last used search mode.

5.2. Understanding the Display (LCD)

The large LCD screen provides crucial information:

• Target ID Cursor: Indicates the probable target type (e.g., Iron, Foil, Nickel, Zinc, Copper, Silver).
• Digital Target ID (1-100): A numerical value representing the target's conductivity. Higher numbers indicate more conductive targets (e.g., silver coins), while lower numbers indicate less conductive targets (e.g., iron).
• مؤشر العمق: Estimates the depth of the target in centimeters (5cm, 10cm, 15cm, 20+cm).
• مؤشر مستوى البطارية: يظهر عمر البطارية المتبقي.
• مؤشر الحساسية: Displays the current sensitivity setting.

5.3. Search Modes

The ACE 400i features five pre-programmed search modes. Press the وضع زر للتنقل بينها:

• Zero-Disc: All-metal mode. Detects all types of metal without discrimination.
• مجوهرات: Designed to ignore iron and small trash items, focusing on jewelry.
• مخصص: Allows you to create and save your own discrimination pattern. Use the تمييز و V/X buttons to adjust the NOTCH segments.
• عملة: Optimized for coin hunting, typically discriminating against iron and some foil.
• Relics: Designed to find relics, often with minimal iron discrimination, as many historical artifacts contain iron.

5.4. تعديل الحساسية

استخدم حساسية أزرار (+ و -) to adjust the detector's sensitivity. Higher sensitivity increases detection depth but can also lead to more false signals in mineralized ground or areas with electrical interference. Adjust as needed for stable operation.

5.5. Discrimination (NOTCH and Iron Audio)

• NOTCH Discrimination: In Custom mode, you can eliminate specific target segments from detection. Use the تمييز button to move the cursor and V/X to toggle segments on/off.
• آيرون أوديو: اضغط على ايرون اوديو button to activate this feature. It allows you to hear discriminated iron targets at a low tone, even when they are notched out. This helps in identifying complex targets (e.g., a valuable non-ferrous target next to iron) and avoiding large iron objects.

5.6. تعديل التردد

The ACE 400i operates at 10 kHz. If you experience interference from other detectors or electrical sources, press the FREQ ADJ button to slightly shift the operating frequency, which can help mitigate interference.

5.7. Pinpoint Function

Once a target is detected, press and hold the يحدد بدقة button (target icon). Keep the coil steady over the target. The detector will emit a continuous tone, and the signal strength indicator on the LCD will help you center the coil directly over the target for precise location.

6. الصيانة

• تنظيف: امسح جهاز الكشف بالزيتamp cloth after each use. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. The control box is rain-resistant but not submersible.
• العناية بالملف: استخدم دائمًا غطاء ملف البحث لحماية الملف من الخدوش والصدمات.
• استبدال البطارية: Replace batteries when the low battery indicator appears. Remove batteries if storing the detector for extended periods to prevent leakage.
• تخزين: خزّن جهاز الكشف في مكان بارد وجاف. تجنب درجات الحرارة القصوى.
