Instruction manual

Golden Mask Deep Hunter Pro5 is a professional treasure and

relic hunting metal detector designed primarily to detect deeply

buried metal objects and discriminate between ferrous and non-

ferrous metals.

Golden Mask Deep Hunter Pro5 is an advanced pulse induction

metal detector, with newly developed full range “flash automatic

ground exclusion balance”, “trash re ect control” and

discriminate between ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Its

powerful performance is based on the very high uality state-of-

the-art sophisticated electronics.

Golden Mask Deep Hunter Pro5 can significantly reduce the

negative effects of power line and other electrical interference.

This detector offers remarkable stability, sensitivity and accuracy

that is achieved with the use of very simple and intuitive settings.

Pulse induction is based on the processing of short and intensive

magnetic pulses which are emitted by means of a search coil.

Those magnetic pulses produce electrical eddy currents in

conducting metallic objects. Eddy currents will be stored in a

metallic object around of the search coil but will uickly die away

after the magnetic pulse emitted by the search coil has ended.

The eddy currents and their time delay are read by the receiving

phase by the search coil which now acts as a receiving coil. The

received signal is amplified to drive an audio response via built-in

loudspeaker or headphones when a metallic object is within the

field of the search coil.

Eddy currents produced in a metal object by means of the high

intensity pulsed primary field will die away at different rates

depending on the conductivity of the metallic object encountered.

1.Golden Mask Deep Hunter Pro5 Set

1.1 Electronics Unit

It has a built-in 12.0V/2600 (3700) mAh NiMH battery, providing

up to 8 (12) hours continuous use per battery charge. The

electronics unit is housed in a protective leather case with an

around-the-neck carrying strap. Never remove the electronics unit

from the leather case as the unit can be damaged and the

warranty will be void.

1.2 Search Coils

The detector is delivered with a variety of coils as desired by the

customer. The use of self-made or other brands of coils will

damage the Electronics Unit and will void the warranty. The main

search coils of the Golden Mask Deep Hunter Pro5 is a s uare

frame made from PVC pipes, unions and elbows that form the coil

support frame. The antenna is a special cable-like loop that is

attached to the support frame with Velcro straps. Searching with

this type of antenna is a two person effort. For individual searches

(without an assistant), round coils are attached to the handle with

a built-in arm rest. Round coils are suitable for areas where the

movement of the frame coil is difficult or impossible, as well as in

residential areas (walls, floors and ceilings), and on steeply

sloped terrain.

2.Operating Principle - high-fre uency pulse induction

(advanced version) with full range flash automatic ground balance

and multichannel signal processing to identify between ferrous

and non-ferrous metals.

3.Settings - Golden Mask Deep Hunter Pro5 has extremely

simple and intuitive settings, that include 4 knobs (of these: 2 with

switching function - one for switching-on/off the unit and 1 for the

special “Silent” mode), 2 buttons, 1 switch and 1 special

indicator.

“VOLUME ON/Off” - knob to switch “ON/Off” the detector and

adjusting the level of sound.

“SENSITIVITY” - knob to adjust the sensitivity of the detector;

“AUDIO TONE On/Off”- knob for adjusting the “ticking”

fre uency in absence of metal within the area of the search

antenna; In position “On” the detector is in its core search mode.

This is strictly individual adjustment and relates exclusively to the

individual auditory characteristics of the operator. It is best to set

a low “ticking” rate in the absence of metals near the coil. It does

not affect the performance of the detector and is designed solely

to provide a better detection of weak signals.

Golden Mask Deep Hunter Pro5 – Instruction manual

GM Electronics Ltd.

When “AUDIO TONE On/Off” is in position “Off” the detector is

switched to “Silent” mode, with this mode the detector does not

emit a “ticking” sound during searches. The presence of a metal

object in the area of the coil is indicated by a low pitch tone (for

ferrous metals) or high pitch tone (non-ferrous metals). In this

mode, the detector's sensitivity is lower, but it is suitable for work

in conditions of heterogeneous and/or highly mineralized soil,

including the presence of ceramic residues and/or small metal

objects that are not desired for detection.

The “TRASH” knob is for rejecting undesirable small pieces of

metal and noise reduction in extremely mineralized soils. A higher

value rejects more objects.

The “RETUNE” button is for uick readjustment and stabilization

of the detector by removing interferences encountered during the

search process. “BOOST” is for amplification of the received

signal: in position “ON” it gives about 20% extra depth of

detection without use of additional battery power.

After turning the switch “BOOST” to “ON” position, "RETUNE"

must be pressed.

"SIGNAL" is a precision high uality analog meter indicating the

strength of the received signal and the level of charge of the built-

in battery; there are 3 embedded LEDs for indicating the type of

the metal and the condition of the battery: "Fe", "n-Fe" - LED

indication of the type of metal - green for ferrous metals and red

for non-ferrous metals;

"Battery!" is a LED for indicating less than 10% residual charge

of the built-in battery, indicating a necessary recharge (see #11);

Golden Mask Deep Hunter Pro5 – Instruction manual

GM Electronics Ltd.

"Battery Check" - button to check the level of battery charge.

This button can be used at any time when the detector is switched

“ON”. When the arrow is in the red sector, the battery should be

recharged!

4.Ground Balance.

The Golden Mask Deep Hunter Pro5 provides full range

automatic ground balance based on a proprietary “Flash Auto

Ground Balance” system that is uni ue to this detector. It does

not need any settings and continuously rejects the signals

generated by changing soil conditions encountered while

searching.

In extremely high mineralized soils the noises can be reduced

additionally by the “TRASH” control knob or by reducing the

“SENSITIVITY” of the detector (decrease the value) and/or

switch “Off” the “BOOST” function.

5.Search for metal ob ects with frame search coil.

The Golden Mask Deep Hunter Pro5 is designed to be used

with large “frame” type search coils. This is the most effective way

to search for deeply buried metal objects.

The search coil is moved slowly at a constant height (15 cm or

more) above the ground. Coils of type “frame” are delivered in the

form of “coil-cable loop” in length corresponding to the respective

size of the supporting frame and a set of PVC pipes and fittings

for assembling the supporting structure of the frame. The “coil-

cable loop” is composed of series-connected conductors in a

multi-conductor special cable which form a send-receive coil. The

“coil-cable loop” is mounted onto a frame of PVC pipes, unions

and elbows attached to the PVC frame using the included “Velcro”

cable straps. The connecting cable is plugged into the connector

labeled “Coil”, which is mounted on the right edge of the front

Golden Mask Deep Hunter Pro5 – Instruction manual

GM Electronics Ltd.

panel of the electronics unit. The connector ring must be

tightened.

The search with a “frame” re uires an assistant who controls the

level horizontal movement of the frame, using the included belts.

With another belt, the operator determines the height and

direction of movement and controls the detector.

Another way for individual work with a “frame” type search coils is

for the operator to stand/walk inside the frame holding both belts

while controlling the detector.

WARNING!

The use of this method, and/or any “entry” of the operator

or another assistant inside the “frame” of the Golden Mask

eep Hunter Pro5 detector while in working mode can suffer

adverse effects caused by the very strong electromagnetic

field that can lead to serious health problems and/or injuries!

If you do not have an assistant, “dragging” of the search coil on a

non-metallic sled (PVC, for example) is recommended. The sled

must provide a constant height (about 15 cm or more) of the

frame from the ground surface. The search should always begin

with a brief pressing of the “RETUNE” button (the same is

recommended to be carried out periodically during the search) in

order to maintain maximum stability and sensitivity.

The movement of the antenna should be carried out in parallel

bands that overlap by up to 30% in order to not miss any portion

of the search field. The speed of movement should be about 1

yard per second.

6.Search for metal ob ects with handle-mounted coils: When

the terrain does not allow searching with a “frame” coil, Golden

Mask Deep Hunter Pro5 can be used with handle-mounted

round search coils. Search with such antennas does not differ

from the search with a “frame”. The round coils are much more

Golden Mask Deep Hunter Pro5 – Instruction manual

GM Electronics Ltd.

sensitive to identifying small objects and should be used for such

searches. In addition, the purpose of the round coil is to replace

the “frame” in inaccessible areas and provide an opportunity for

individual work, without an assistant. The movement with round

coils should be done very slowly.

Unlike traditional VLF metal detectors, using the principle of

inductive balance, the Golden Mask Deep Hunter Pro5 can

detect metallic objects without motion. The movement is only

necessary to identify the type of metal, a speed of about one m/s

is sufficient for the discrimination system to function properly.

The search height above the ground surface with the round coils

antenna must be constant (about 10 cm or more).

If you hold the coil too low or touch the ground, you will

experience faulty signals. All activities and settings recommended

for the use with “frame” coils apply as well to searches with “hand”

the round coils.

7.Indication of the presence of a metal ob ect within the coil

area: The signal from a metal object, located in the area of the

search coil is indicated by increasing the fre uency of the sound

signal (“ticking” sound).

Most weak signals an operator is able to notice are improved by

doubling the preset fre uency of the sound with the “AUDIO

TONE On/Off” knob. This is perceived accurately by the human

ear and therefore it needs to be set very precisely, so that the

sound fre uency without the presence of a signal to be only a few

Hz (slow “ticking” sound).

Each “signal” has “start” and “end”. The Golden Mask Deep

Hunter Pro5 has a very well expressed “zone” indication from

deeply buried metal objects with the use of a frame coil. The

length and width of this “zone” is a guide to the depth/size of the

metal objects. When this length is greater than the size of the

search antenna and has an expressed peak in the middle this

certainly indicates a deeply buried metallic object. If the signal is

Golden Mask Deep Hunter Pro5 – Instruction manual

GM Electronics Ltd.

of a short duration (small area), but is captured only in the central

part of the coil, then you can also expect a deeply buried metal

object. Double audible responses corresponding to the passage

of the front and rear ends of the “frame” over the metal object are

a sure indication of relatively small metallic object not deeply

buried. The use of a round coil gives a slightly different and

shorter signal compared to frame coils. After reaching a certain

signal strength (which will be indicated on the indicator

“SIGNAL”), the identification of the type of metal through the

LEDs mounted in the indicating “SIGNAL” will start to work. The

red color indicates non-ferrous metals and green indicates ferrous

metals (iron). To present a high probability of proper metal type

identification, when you detect a target, move the coil outside the

target area, press the “RETUNE” button and then pass the

antenna over the target from a different direction. Repeat as many

times as you want to identify the type of the metal more securely.

With a little experience, anyone can learn to recognize the nature

of the various signals, which will lead to better use of the great

capabilities of the Golden Mask Deep Hunter Pro5

8.Signal additional amplification (“BOOST”).

The additional amplification of the received signal provides

increased depth of detection (about 20%), but Its’ use is

recommended only after ac uiring some experience in working

with the unit, since increased sensitivity could lead to increased

number of ghost or false signals. Setting different values of the

“SENSITIVITY” and using the “BOOST” button can lead to

different behavior of the device. You will understand this function

with practice and experience.

9.“Silent” Mode

In “Silent” mode the detector can be switched with the “AUDIO

TONE On/Off” knob, when it is set to "Off". This mode can be

chosen at any time. In “Silent” mode the “ticking” sound is not

Golden Mask Deep Hunter Pro5 – Instruction manual

GM Electronics Ltd.

heard and the presence of metal target will be indicated with a

high pitch tone for non-ferrous metals, and low pitch tone for

ferrous metals. In the “Silent” mode the sensitivity is lower, but

this mode is very suitable for highly “trashy" sites (where some

small, mainly iron metal objects are present, and these objects

are not an objective of the search). In “Silent” mode, the detector

achieves a better “rejection” of junk metals and provides a much

more efficient search of large objects.

10.Re ection of small metal ob ects.

Often, in an area where large metal objects are searched for and

the metal detector is set to high sensitivity, many (unwanted)

small metal targets could be indicated. Decreasing the sensitivity

and/or use of “Silent” mode sometimes could return acceptable

results, but the Golden Mask Deep Hunter Pro3 provides the

ability to eliminate small metal objects without reducing the

sensitivity. This is accomplished with the “TRASH” knob. The

lower the value selected with this knob, smaller metal objects are

detected. After doing some tests with multiple "samples" of

different metallic objects and sizes, you will learn which values of

the “TRASH” settings are best for your needs.

11.Charging the built-in battery: To ensure longer life of the

built-in battery it must be charged with only the supplied charger.

You should regularly check the charge level of the built-in battery

with the button “Battery Check” (inspection is possible only

when the detector is switched “On”) and you must turn off the

detector once the red LED "Battery" (located in the lower right

corner of the indicator) is lit.
