Push and hold power button until you hear a double beep, did you test it with a coin

That will reset the detector hope it helps

The Sniper is usually too small for open fields, unless your wading through a ton of trash and want to go slow and only do a very small area at a time...
The key to the sniper is low and SLOW...I mean SLOW...you need to really slow yourself down and have a lot of patience with this coil...You also do NOT need to set your SENS very high...about half of what you normally use...Your not going for depth...Your going for small items and target separation...
