Key Features

• Two Operation Modes: Offers "All Metal" and "Discrimination" modes for versatile detection.
• Adjustable Volume: Control the audio level for both the speaker and connected headphones.
• Earphone Jack: Allows connection of headphones (not supplied) for private listening.
• View Meter and Pointer: Visually indicates metal detection by a swinging pointer.
• Waterproof Search Coil: Enables searching for metal objects in shallow water. Note: The control box is not waterproof.

Setup and Assembly

The ROROLL TX-640 metal detector features a collapsible design, requiring no complex assembly. Simply unfold the unit from its compact storage state. Ensure all connections are secure before use.

Before first use, install the required batteries (not supplied) into the control box. Refer to the battery compartment for correct polarity. Always remove batteries when storing the detector for extended periods.

Operating Modes

The TX-640 offers two primary operating modes:

• All Metal Mode: This mode detects all types of metal objects without discrimination. It is ideal for general searching when you want to find any metallic target.
• Discrimination (DISC) Mode: This mode allows the detector to ignore certain types of metals, such as iron or foil, and focus on more valuable targets. Use the 'MENU' button to navigate to the discrimination settings and adjust as needed.

Pinpoint (PP) Function

The Pinpoint (PP) function helps to precisely locate the exact position of a detected target. To use this function:

1. Once a target is detected in either All Metal or Discrimination mode, press the PP button on the control panel.
2. Slowly sweep the search coil over the target area, maintaining a consistent height above the ground.
3. The detector will provide a more focused signal as you get closer to the target, helping you narrow down its exact location.

Comprehensive Digital Display

The TX-640 features an intelligent LCD panel that provides crucial information during operation. Familiarize yourself with the display indicators:

• Battery Level: Indicates the remaining battery power.
• Backlight: Controls the display backlight for visibility in low-light conditions.
• Digital ID: Provides a numerical identification for detected metals.
• Sensitivity (8 Levels): Adjusts the detector's sensitivity to targets. Higher sensitivity increases detection depth but may also increase false signals.
• Target ID: Visually represents the type of metal detected.
• Target Depth (8 Levels): Estimates the depth of the detected target.
• Volume: Adjusts the audio output level.
• Power ON/OFF: Turns the detector on or off.
• MENU/ENTER: Navigates through settings and confirms selections.
• PP (Pinpoint): Activates the pinpoint function for precise target location.

Maintenance and Care

• Battery Removal: Always remove batteries from the detector when it is not in use for extended periods to prevent leakage and damage.
• Water Protection: While the search coil is waterproof, the control box and LCD monitor are not. Exercise caution to prevent water from entering the LCD monitor or any other non-waterproof components.
• Cleaning: Wipe down the detector with a damp cloth after use. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Storage: Store the detector in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Utilize its foldable design for compact storage.

Troubleshooting

Erratic Signals / False Signals:

If the detector continuously sends erratic or false signals, the sensitivity setting may be too high for the current environment. Try reducing the sensitivity level until the false signals disappear. Environmental factors such as highly mineralized soil, electromagnetic interference, or nearby power lines can cause such issues.

No Power:

Check if the batteries are correctly installed with the proper polarity. Ensure the batteries have sufficient charge. Replace with fresh batteries if necessary.

No Audio:

Verify that the volume is turned up. If using headphones, ensure they are properly plugged into the earphone jack and functioning correctly. Disconnect headphones to check speaker output.
