CS6MX

CS6MX Overview

The CS6MX is a high performance specialist metal detector operating on the

‘MOTION’ principle. This means that the search-head must be kept moving at

a steady sweep speed to achieve optimum performance. The 6MX features

multiple discrimination allowing the user to detect the smallest and thinnest

coins on the most heavily contaminated or mineralised sites.

The CS6MX provides the option of interchangeable search-heads to

optimise performance on a variety of site conditions. There is an iron volume

control alongside a discrimination control with discrimination volume to aid

identication of targets; a pinpoint switch to aid exact target location; and a

manual / auto ground option to handle all ground conditions

The CS6MX is designed to offer extremely high performance and, with

practice, will give you excellent results. We wish you good hunting and

a great hobby with the excellent CS6MX!

Follow these simple steps to start using the CS6MX within minutes:

1) Insert the lower stem into the upper stem (rst press in the spring clip).

2) Twist the locking device so that the stem is locked at the required length.

3) Coil the search-head lead around the stem.

4) Plug the search-head lead into the socket on the control box.

5) Remove the battery compartment cover by loosening the four retaining screws.

6) Fit 8 x AA batteries to the battery holder being careful to observe polarity

and good contact and replace cover.

7) Rotate the Iron Volume control to number 8 on the scale.

8) Rotate the Disc control to number 4 on the scale.

9) Rotate the Disc Volume control to number 8 on the scale.

10) Set the Ground Control to ‘AUTO’.

11) Switch on and rotate the Sensitivity control to number 8 on the scale.

12) START DETECTING... Good metal targets give a sharp, high pitched audio

signal from the loudspeaker... Targets that have been discriminated will be

identied by a low tone tone... Signals from small pieces of iron are ignored...

Switch to pinpoint to identify the exact position of the target.

Rapid start

1) On Off/Sensitivity control.

Rotary control switches the detector on/off and adjusts the sensitivity. Ground containing

mineralisation and some beach situations may cause instability or false signals requiring

a reduction of the sensitivity level.

2) Ground Level control.

Start off with this set to AUTO. Extra sensitivity can be achieved on consistent ground

by adjusting this control manually in conjunction with the sensitivity control (see section

‘Detecting with the CS6MX’).

3) Pinpoint

The ‘motion’ aspect of the CS6MX is switched off whilst the pin-point mode is selected

(switch in up position). In pin-point mode the search-head can be held still to determine

the precise target position. Pinpoint mode operates in ‘All Metal’, ie. whatever level

of discrimination you have chosen will be switched off while the pin-point button is

depressed. This is a useful facility which allows you to trace around the edges of a

signal to identify large pieces of iron. (Note: very large pieces of iron, such as discarded

agricultural machinery and iron stakes tend to give positive signals even when the

detector is set to high discrimination settings). Once the pinpoint switch is released the

detector returns to motion mode.

4) Iron Volume control.

Iron targets are identied by a low pitched tone. The volume level of this low pitched tone

can be adjusted as required. To ignore iron this control should be set to zero.

5) Discrimination Level control.

This is used to set the discrimination point. When fully anti-clockwise, the detector will

respond to any target from silver paper to gold with a high pitch tone. As the control is

rotated clockwise, the lower conduction metals are identied by a mid pitch tone.

6) Disc Volume control.

Used in conjunction with (5), the Volume level of the mid pitch tone can be adjusted

as required.

7) Control box mounting clip.

For ultimate lightweight metal detecting the CS6MX control box can be removed and

tted to a belt around the body. This leaves only the search-head on the stem which

reduces fatigue on the arm.

8) Loudspeaker (and battery condition indicator).

The presence of metal is indicated by a short tone from the loudspeaker as the search-

head is passed over a target.

The CS6MX Features and what they do

CS6MX

Assembling the CS6MX

The stem lock should be slackened to allow the lower stem to enter the upper stem

section. The spring clip should be pressed in to allow the lower stem to slide into the

upper stem. This spring clip will pop into any of the holes in the upper stem and rmly

x the two stems together. Tighten the stem lock to stop any movement in the stems.

The search-head lead may then be wound around the stem as shown in the photograph.

A search-head lead which is not well secured to the stem could move about causing

false signals. Cable ties or tape may be used to hold the lead in position. Align the arrows

on the plug and on the socket to connect the search-head lead to the control box

Adjust the position of the search-head so that it is parallel to the ground when the user is

in a normal standing position. Tighten the wing-nut on the search-head retaining screw.

Do not over-tighten. Friction of the head lugs against the neoprene washers keeps the

search-head in position. Excessive pressure on these parts should not be necessary.

(If some form of lubricant should ever nd its way onto these washers it will be necessary to

disassemble the parts, wash and dry them before careful reassembly).

Each search-head is supplied complete with a lower stem to make changing easy.

Unplug the connector by pulling the plug outer case. This releases the catch to allow the

plug and socket to separate. Remove the lower stem assembly and ret the alternative

search-head. Always take care not to get water or dirt in the plug or socket. It is for this

reason that we recommend changing heads in clean conditions. Coil the search-head

lead tightly around the stem and x with cable ties or tape for best performance. Align

the arrows on the plug and on the socket when connecting the search-head lead.

Changing Search-heads

Belt mounting

Squeeze the control box retaining clips together using your thumbs as shown in the

photograph. The control box will now slide towards you free of the control box mounting

clip. The control box can be tted to your belt using the clip provided. In belt mounted

use, be sure to wind the search-head cable up the stem at least to the stem lock and

secure it with tape or cable tie. This is because the lead will be detected like a target if it

is left free to move.

Undo the 4 battery compartment retaining screws and take out the battery holder.

Fit eight good quality AA type batteries into the compartments of the battery holder.

Observe polarity of the batteries (the spring contact goes against the at, negative end

of the battery). Roll the batteries in the holder to ensure good contact and replace into

the battery compartment with the contacts on the holder lining up with the contacts in

the compartment. Replace the battery compartment cover being careful to avoid cross

threading the screws. Battery condition is monitored continuously on the CS6MX. Low

batteries are indicated by a warble alarm repeated every few seconds.

Above: Slide the belt mounting clip into the xing slots on the underside of the control box and

push all the way until the retaining lugs click into position.

CS6MX

On the majority of inland sites the ground control should be set to AUTO

and the recommended sensitivity setting between 7-9 on the scale will give

the best results. Some types of ground may give rise to false signals and the

sensitivity level should be reduced to a point where operation of the detector

becomes stable.

Sweep the detector head from side to side with a steady relaxed motion.

Keep the search-head parallel and as close as possible to the ground right

across the arc of the sweep.

Search your chosen site carefully by moving forward only the width of the

search-head at each sweep. Move up and down the search area in lines so

that there is plenty of overlap in the ground you have covered. Search with the

sensitivity set as high as possible according to the ground conditions.

Setting the GROUND control.

Experienced users can achieve higher sensitivity settings on ground with a

constant effect. This ground is usually low in contamination and mineralisation.

1. Set DISC to All Metal mode and Ground to AUTO then check for an area

that is free from metal.

2. Turn the IRON VOL to 10, and set the GROUND control to 5. Rapidly raise

and lower the search head. If the audio is high pitched, decrease the GROUND

setting. If the audio is low pitched, increase the GROUND setting. Repeat this

process until the setting is reached where the detector is silent. Then set the

IRON VOL. to your normal preferred setting.

Detecting with the CS6MX

Searching.

When the detector gives a signal, move the search-head to the approximate

area where the signal was heard, hold the switch in pinpoint and move the

search-head carefully around. The strongest signal will occur directly below

the centre of the search-head. Dig a neat hole by cutting around the signal

position with a sharp edged trowel and remove a divot of earth which might

now contain the metal object. Run the detector over the area again in pinpoint

mode to see if the metal object is still in the hole or in the piece of earth which

you have just removed.

Dig some more and sift through the earth until you nd what you are looking

for. Fill in the hole before moving on.

The use of headphones will increase battery life and make it easier to discern

faint signals.

Follow the ‘Countryside Code’. Do not trespass. Do not touch anything you

suspect might be live ammunition - inform the police.

Do not take your detector on any scheduled historic site. If you nd

anything which looks like it could have historical signicance, report it to

your local museum.

Acquaint yourself with any laws relating to the use of metal detectors

particularly if you want to go detecting in countries other than the UK.

Detecting with the CS6MX

Sensitivity, ground eect & discrimination

You will be able to get more performance out of your detector if you

understand the relationship between three aspects of detector operation -

sensitivity, ground effect and discrimination.

If you increase the power of a metal detector too much the ground itself is

detected and false signals make the detector difcult to use. The ‘motion’

electronic system of the CS6MX will ignore many ground effect signals

but some types of ground, notably waterlogged or containing salts or

mineralisation require the detector to operate on reduced sensitivity.

However, the discriminate control must be used with care because some

objects, which could be valuable, have similar electrical characteristics to

rubbish items as far as the detector can tell. Higher levels of discrimination

also have the effect of reducing the depth of detection. For these reasons it

is best to keep the discrimination setting as low as possible.

Depending on how the controls are set the CS6MX can be set to ignore signals

from certain types of metal targets. Iron targets are identied by a low pitch

tone, however you can adjust the volume level of this tone so it can be clearly

heard or totally inaudible. The three tone discrimination is futher enhanced

by the Discrimination control in conjunction with the Discrimination Volume

control.

The discrimination control is used to determine the detector’s response to

‘mid range’ targets such as foil, nickel and 9ct gold. with the control set to

minimum, (and the disc volume set to maximum) every target apart from iron

will give a high pitch tone. As the control is turned progressively clockwise,

the response from these metals will then become a mid pitch tone. It is then

possible to reduce the disc volume on these targets so that only targets above

discrimination point are identied. This can be used to ignore the effects of

coke contamination.
