Owner’s Guide

Although the new Pulsescan TDI Pro

was designed with the Gold Prospector

in mind, its features and performance will

be just as valuable to Beach, Relic, and

serious coin Hunters.

During the development of the Pulsescan TDI Pro, we kept in mind the

comfort of the user, easy to operate, in addition to producing outstanding

performance at an affordable price.

The Pulsescan TDI Pro is a deep searching, sensitive pulse induction

metal detector which incorporates a user controlled manual ground

balancing feature, a by product of which is the ability to produce an audio

tone, for possible identiﬁcation of the detected target.

User controlled manual balancing of the ground has the additional beneﬁt

of giving the user the option of ﬁne tweaking for different situations, thus

increasing the probability of hearing the faint signals of small or deep

targets.

The Manual Ground Balance feature of the Pulsescan TDI Pro can be

turned off if the ground mineralization is not severe enough to require it,

as the pulse circuitry itself is able to ignore most ground mineralization by

its very nature. In this situation, with the FINE GEB off, there is no audio

tone variation all metal targets will sound alike, and additional depth can

be attained in low mineralized grounds.

White’s is proud to have been able to work with Eric Foster, of Oxford,

England, who enjoys the worldwide reputation of being the “Father of

Pulse Technology”.

1. Remove all parts from the shipping carton and check assembly page to

make sure all parts are present.

2. Install black rubber washers on ﬁber clevis/lower rod, insert lower rod

onto loop ears. Use only nonmetallic washers, ﬁber bolt, and ﬁber thumb-

nut to secure loop/search coil to clevis/lower rod.

3. Unlock “S” rod cam-lock and insert clevis/lower rod into curved “S”

rod so that stainless steel spring clip buttons line up and lock into one of

the adjustment holes in the curved “S” rod. Turn camlock to secure. The

second or third adjustment holes are suitable for average sized adults.

Individuals six feet or taller should use the fully extended position.

Individuals well over six feet tall should purchase the optional Tall Man

Rod accessory.

4. Unravel search coil cable and wind the cable around the clevis and rod

assembly. First revolution over the top of the rod. Wind cable all the way

to the top of the curved “S” rod, (10-16) revolutions. Use the black cable

retainers, one near the search coil, and one near the top of the curved “S”

rod, to hold the loop cable in place.

5. Unlock control box cam-lock and insert curved “S” rod so that stainless

steel spring clip buttons line up and lock into the rod on top the control

box. The “S” rod is designed to curve up towards the display. However,

those who prefer to sweep the search coil close to their feet may desire

to assemble the “S” rod to curve down towards the ground. Turn cam-lock

to secure. Plug search coil connector into control box (only ﬁts one way),

screw lock ring ﬁnger tight to secure.

6. Grip the instrument by the handle, with your arm in the elbow cup with

strap and sweep the search coil over the ﬂoor. If the instrument ﬁt feels

uncomfortable, readjust clevis/lower rod length with spring clip button and

cam-lock so that the loop/search coil can be held near the ﬂoor without

requiring bending at your waist (stooping over).

7. Remove the protective paper from the two black arm cup foam pads.

Carefully align pads on the inside of the elbow cup, one on each side of

the center rod, and press ﬁrmly into place.

8. Adjust the elbow cup strap so that it is loose enough for you to slide

your arm in and out of the arm-cup without lessening the strap each time

you want to set the detector down to dig. The elbow cup strap provides

extra leverage and control. However, some prefer not to use it.

9. Charge and install battery as described in the next section.

10. It should be noted at this point that the detector might not work as ex-

pected indoors due to the high degree of metal used in modern construc-

tion. It is best to tune and practice out-of-doors to ensure stable, predict-

able results. Additionally, freshly buried targets will rarely produce the

typical depth and tone results of targets that have been naturally lost and

settled in undisturbed ground. Due to the abnormalities caused by digging

a hole in the ground matrix, and the lack of normal target to soil reactions,

it may take a number of years for freshly buried targets to respond at true

depths. The best way to determine true detection depth is in real search

conditions.

11. Hip or Chest Mounting;

a) Disconnect the search coil cable from the control box. On top

of the control box, the rod mounting plate has four Phillips head screws.

Remove these four screws and remove the rod/loop/arm cup assembly

from the top of the control box. To prevent moisture/dirt from entering the

control box, replace the four screws on top the control box (sink all the

way) without the rod or mounting plate.

b) Unravel enough loop cable from around the rod to allow slack

to sweep the rod/search coil. Connect the rod/search coil cable to the

control box. Use two black Velcro straps provided to secure loop/search

coil cable to rod, one near the search coil and one near the last revolution

of the cable around the rod.

c) The control box can be worn on ones chest, hip, or waist based

on personal preference and comfort. Belt hook provided on bottom of

control box as well as four “D” rings to attach common camera/dog leash

connector type straps.

BATTERY AND CHARGINGSYSTEMS -

The Pulsescan TDI Pro uses a rechargeable Lithium Ion Battery pack as

the power supply. This type of battery is required to supply the high cur-

rent levels while weighing much less than other battery packs that have

similar power characteristics. It supplies a nominal voltage of 14.4 volts

and approximately 500 ma of current during use.

Lithium Ion Batteries require special handling during shipping and travel.

UN #3481 & 3480, DOT09042901 (60.2 watt hours). It must be carried on

passenger aircraft with contacts taped to prevent shorting. It Cannot be

transported if physically damaged.

The GREEN Battery Light on the top right side of the control box indi-

cates battery condition. When this Green Battery Light glows brightly, the

batteries have enough voltage to operate the Pulsescan TDI Pro properly.

Once the green light no longer shines, stop using the Pulsecan TDI Pro

and recharge the battery. Continuing to use a battery “without the green

light shining” can damage the Lithium Ion Battery. Typically the Lithium

Ion battery will operate the Pulsescan TDI Pro approximately 8 hours per

charge.

Two battery chargers are supplied with the Pulsescan TDI Pro.

1. The Smart Charger (Part Number 509-0040) is used to recharge the

Lithium Ion Battery from a household wall outlet. It has two internal LED

lights that indicate the status of the battery charging cycle.

a. Connect the battery pack to the charger ﬁrst and then plug the

charger into a household wall outlet.

b. The LED lights in the charger will ﬂash RED-GREEN-RED-GREEN.

This is a self-check that indicates the charger and battery are

operating correctly.

c. The RED light then comes on steady to indicate the charger is

charging and the battery is accepting a charge.

d. When the battery reaches a full charge (a minimum of 7 hours),

the red light fades and the green light comes on indicating the

battery is fully charged and ready to use.

e. If the battery is left connected to the charger for an excessive

amount of time, the lights will return to the initial RED-GREEN-

RED-GREEN cycle indicating the system is no longer charging.

First unplug the charger from the wall, and then disconnect the

battery from the charger.

f. Only use the charger indoors, it is not weather proof.

g. Do not cover the charger.

h. Do not use the charger in an ambient temperature greater than

140 degrees Fahrenheit / 40 degrees Celsius.

i . Charger and/or battery may get very warm during charging. This

is normal.

j . During recharging, position battery on the least combustible

surface available.

k. All rechargeable batteries slowly loose their charge during

storage, particularly if stored in the metal detector. After periods

of storage, recharge the battery prior to use.

l . Lithium Ion batteries can be recharged regardless if a partial

charge remains.

2. Optional 12 Volt (Automobile Accessory Jack) Battery Charger

a. Connect the 12 Volt charger to the 14.8 Volt Lithium-Ion Battery pack.

b. Connect the Charger to a 12-volt automobile accessory/cigarette

lighter plug in.

c. The charger light will ﬂash RED-GREEN-RED GREEN. This

self-check cycle indicates the charger is working properly.

d. The RED light will turn on to indicate the battery is charging.

e. When the battery reaches full charge in about 3 hours, the GREEN

light will turn on and the battery will be ready to use.

f. Disconnect the charger from the 12-volt automobile accessory

/cigarette lighter plug in ﬁrst, and then disconnect the battery from the

charger.

g. It is normal for the charger and battery to get warm during the

charging cycle. Position the battery on the least ﬂammable surface

available.

h. This is a fast charger (3 hours) compared to the standard wall

charger that requires a minimum of 7 hours. Fast charging is not

recommended as the sole means of battery charging.

i . Do not use the charger in an ambient temperature greater than

140 degrees Fahrenheit or 40 degrees Celsius.

CONTROLS

ON/ OFFGain -

What it does

The ON/OFF GAIN control turns the Pulsescan TDI Pro, ON (clockwise)

and OFF (fully counterclockwise) and selects the range at which the de-

tector will hear a given target. Gain increases or decreases the ampliﬁca-

tion of the receive signal determining both how deeply the Pulsescan TDI

Pro will hear a target (in ideal conditions) combined with how it is inﬂu-

enced by ground and external interference (in less than ideal conditions).

How to use it

Ground mineralization gets in the way of hearing target signals. This so-

called bad ground can be balanced out by a ground balance procedure (a

form of ﬁltering) so that targets can be heard clearly. This process can be

accomplished more easily and effectively if the Gain is set at an appropri-

ate level.
