Successful metal detector users will be the first to tell you to Read and then Re-Read your Instruction Manual if

you want to get the most fun and “Treasure Finds” using your new metal detector. If you are new to metal

detecting or even an experienced detectorist, it will help you more easily understand all the functions of this

CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR PURCHASE

of your new Treasure Commander TM TC3X metal detector is part of a new series of metal

detectors designed to help you find treasure no matter where you live and what your

experience level is when it comes to treasure hunting.

including Phil’s brother “Uncle” Si Robertson of the Duck Commanders TV show. Treasure

Commander TM metal detectors will let you start finding lost valuables as soon as you

unpack the box. The TC3X is the first metal detector to feature a True Touch Screen LCD.

The “Flagship” of the Treasure Commander Digital Metal Detector Series is the Phil

Robertson Signature Edition endorsed by Phil Robertson himself. Phil Robertson started a

small company in Louisiana called “Duck Commanders” making duck calls in a small shed.

Through hard work and producing high quality products that really worked as advertised,

his company “Duck Commanders” is now the largest manufacturers of duck calls in the

world. Phil Robertson’s signature says it all. The NEW Treasure Commander TC3X is a high

quality metal detector that will work as advertised. You can find treasures while

eliminating most trash and junk!

We welcome you to America’s fastest growing sport - hunting for treasures with a metal

detector. Metal Detecting is an Adventure that you, your family and friends will enjoy for

years to come. It’s fun and exciting to find old valuable silver and gold coins, gold and

diamond rings and gold jewelry. Recover relics from the Civil War and other historic

battles. Discover lost and hidden buried treasures. All these treasures and more are

waiting to be found with the latest and most advanced metal detectors now available.

Your Treasure Commander TM TC3X is capable of meeting your needs in a wide range of

treasure hunting situations. As with any other metal detector, familiarity with this

instrument is probably the limiting factor in determining how successful you can be. I

recommend that you read this manual and fully understand how to operate this detector

before attempting to use it in the field. As you become more familiar with your detector

through practice, your rate of success will increase dramatically.

Your new Treasure CommanderTM TC3X is a quality electronic device that will last for

years. We hope your adventure is one that brings excitement every time you use your

new metal detector!

Phil Robertson and the Kellyco staff!

Getting Started

Your Treasure Commander TC3X comes complete and ready to use. The first step is to

unpack the box and check to make sure you have all the items needed to quickly

assemble the detector. You should find the following parts inside the box:

•Handle Unit with Arm Cuff and Stand

•Top Rod with Locking Collar

•Bottom Rod

•Search Coil with Bolt Assembly

•Cable Pulling Tool

•Operator Instruction Manual

•Warranty Card

If any of these items are missing, contact Kellyco Detectors immediately. It is

recommended that you make a record of your detector's serial number and store it along

with your proof of purchase in a safe place in case you ever need this information for

warranty service.

Assembly

Assembly of your new Treasure Commander TC3X is very simple and requires no special

tools.

1 Connect the Search Coil and Bottom Rod:

Unscrew the bracket from the bottom rod as it comes

shipped from the factory. Place the bottom rod inside

the tabs on the search coil and insert the bolt through

the hole. Tighten the bolt until snug but take care not

to over tighten it as you can damage the coil or the

bolt.

NOTE: The large hole in the end of the bottom rod

must be facing downwards - this is where the search coil cable will enter the rod and be

fed upwards to connect into the control housing.

2Connect the Bottom and Top Rods:

Loosen the locking collar on the top rod (do not

remove it) and slide the bottom rod into the top rod.

Adjust the rods to the desired length and tighten the locking collar by turning it counter-

clockwise until snug. Do not over tighten as it may be difficult to adjust the length or

disassemble the detector for storage.

NOTE: The groove on the top rod needs to face away from you when you perform this

step. Align the grooves to ensure the rods remain properly positioned.

3Connect the Search Coil Cable to the Control Housing:The Treasure

Commander TC3X's search coil cable is run through the inside of

the bottom and top rods which keeps it from being caught by

branches or underbrush when searching for treasure in

overgrown areas. This is yet another feature that was added

with the active treasure hunter in mind.

Take the Cable Pulling Tool and slide it down the inside of the

rods starting from the top end. When the end with the screw

connector appears in the large hole on the bottom rod, connect it

to the Search Coil Cable and slowly pull the cable back up the

inside of the rods.

Once the connector on the Search Coil Cable has exited the Top

Rod, remove the Cable Pulling Tool.

Lineup the white arrow imprinted on the Search

Coil Cable Connector with the alignment arrow on

the corresponding connection at the base of the

Control Housing. Push the two connections

together but take care not to force them as this

indicates the connectors are not properly aligned.

Once they have mated, screw the metal collar until

snug to ensure the cable does not come loose.

4Securing the Top Rod to the Control

Housing:The Top Rod is connected to the

Handle Unit through the use of a cam-lock

fitting located at the base of the LCD Assembly.

Pull the cam-lock lever downward and slide the

Top Rod into the Handle Unit. When the Top

Rod is fully seated, press the cam-lock lever

upwards so that it is flush with the rod.

5Installing the Batteries:Your Treasure Commander TC3X is powered by six (6)

AA batteries contained in the compartment found on the rear of the LCD Assembly pod.

To access the battery compartment, unscrew the two (2) screws found on the top of the

cover. Insert the batteries according to the markings inside the compartment making

sure that the batteries are properly aligned. Replace the battery compartment cover and

tighten the screws.

Either standard AA or rechargeable AA batteries can be used on the TC3X. Alkaline AA

batteries are recommended for optimal performance and service life.

NOTE: The Treasure Commander TC3X features a continuous battery strength indicator

on the LCD screen which will help ensure you do not find yourself with dead batteries

miles from the nearest store. If the display indicates less than 25% of battery strength

remains, either replace the batteries or bring a spare set with you when you head out into

the field.

6Adjusting the Display:The TC3X offers a full range of adjustment to provide users

with optimal screen visibility. To adjust the angle of

the LCD Assembly pod for viewing under different

lighting conditions, you can tilt the pod forwards or

backwards.

NOTE: Be careful not to force the pod into position

in order to avoid damaging the adjustment point.

Understanding the LCD Display

The LCD True Touch screen on the Treasure Commander TC3X provides a wealth of

useful information that will help you find more treasure while ignoring unwanted trash

targets such as aluminum, rusted iron and the like. The figure above shows all of the

information that is available on the LCD screen; however, not all of the information is

provided at all times; i.e., the information displayed will depend on the mode selected

(more on that subject will follow). The information includes the following:

•Battery Life: The battery symbol in the lower right area of the display shows the

strength of the batteries. New or fully charged rechargeable batteries will be

indicated by 6 dark segments. As the batteries discharge, the number of dark

segments will decrease. When only two segment remains, the batteries should be

replaced or recharged.

•GPS Locator: The half circle in the upper right area of the display is used to

provide GPS-based directional information when the GPS option is activated and a

waypoint has been saved. Additional details on this function are provided in the

Operating Modes section.

•Metal Categories: The eight (8) segments that appear in a semi-circle on the LCD

True Touch screen provide you with an indication of what a detected target might

be. Categories of commonly found targets - treasure and trash - are provided on

the screen. The following figure shows what types of targets will register in each of

the eight segments. A useful function on the TC3X is the ability to accept or reject

any of the segments independently from each other allowing you to quickly and

easily create a custom program designed to handle any conditions you might come

across in the field. Use the Notch Mode to setup a custom Notch or Discrimination

Pattern. ( see Page 10)

It is important to note that the eight segments capture commonly found targets but

not all targets you might come across are listed. Military artifacts including lead

bullets, brass buttons and iron artillery shells or cannon balls can register in

segments that might indicate they are trash. The same holds true for jewelry which

can vary greatly in terms of content and size. The following figure shows the wide

range of segments that can indicate a gold target has been detected. The rejection

of specific segments should be based on a combination of the likelihood of finding

what might be rejected in the specific search area, how much trash is actually

present and how much time you have available to search.

•Sensitivity: This function determines how strong a signal is needed to produce and

audio / visual response from a target. Detecting deeper or smaller targets typically

require higher levels of Sensitivity to be used; however, erratic operation can occur

if the level is too high for conditions at the specific site being searched. The

selected level is indicated in the lower section of the LCD display to the right of the

IRON segment. NOTE: Ground mineralization, trash or nearby electrical

interference can require a lower Sensitivity level to be selected. Sensitivity range

can be adjusted for 1 to 8. Volume: The selected volume level is indicated by the

number to the right of the Sensitivity setting. CAUTION: If you are using

headphones that do not have a built-in volume control, it is recommended that you

set the Volume level at a low value before plugging the headphones in. Adjust the

volume to a comfortable level by sweeping the coil across a target. The Volume

level can be adjusted from 1 to 4.

•Depth: When a target is detected, the target’s approximate depth will be

displayed in inches on the right side of the LCD next to the QUARTER segment.

•NOTE: This indication assumes the target is coin-sized so a larger target will

appear to be shallower that it really is and a smaller target will appear deeper than

it really is. Use this as a guide to avoid damaging targets when recovering them

but recognize that the accuracy depends on the size of the target.

•Factory Preset Detect Modes and Discrimination / Notch Modes: The upper

left area of the LCD screen will indicate which mode you are in as well as when

searching, which of the three (3) factory Preset programs are active. Same is true

for the two (2) Custom Discrim and Notch programmable modes.

•Signal Strength: Located just beneath the P-TAB / S-CAP segments, this icon will

provide indication of how strong the signal from a detected target is when the

Pinpoint trigger is activated. Combined with the Depth indication, the Signal

Strength indication can help you determine the relative size and depth of a target

before you recover it.

•Identification: Located in the center of the LCD screen, this will provide an 8-digit

identifier active when one of the five (5) Detecting Modes or the GPS function is

selected.
