My Legend turns on by itself sometimes when I hook to charging port. Some times it don’t turn on.

Does it totally power up to the main detection screen or does the display momentarily light up and then go dark. The second scenario is normal depending on the power source. The first scenario isn’t.

Powers up all the way sometimes.
 
Powering fully up when you plug in the charging cable happens occasionally, and it's normal. Mine does it about 1 in 10 times. Just turn it off.

The screen momentarily going bright, then dark to the charging screen is also normal.

My first Legend system box would act normally when the charging process started......momentary lighting up of the screen, screen goes dark, the charging icon appears top left of the screen. Sometimes during charging, like an hour later, it would just power on spontaneously....... and I would have to power it off manually. In the middle of the night, that was annoying. That system box was replaced by Nokta Makro under warranty for that issue and two other power management issues.

I just shared what my machine did sometimes.
Is this normal?
Who is to say?
Yeah I turned it off. Duh!

TN, that was a good catch you made on that test. Being a legend owner I'm glad your finding the flaws,so they can be addressed and fixed .Thing about these updatable machines is they can fix that.. thanks for the video
 
Video showing possible problem or glitch.
Having to do with adjusting tone break using 60 tones.
Enjoy.

I checked tone freq setting using 60 tones. Appears to work as advertised in manual.

PS
What I am seeing.
Could this be what is causing some speakers to blow??

This behavior has been confirmed by another Legend user. Youtuber Iffy Signals.

Here’s another video confirming tone pitch option, adjusting works as advertised. This video done to eliminate confusion.

Edited — Another video coming early tomorrow
Reading around some folks may be confused about tones on detector.
I still have to do a few experiments.
Then I will show some video explaining.
Stay tuned.
