Product Description

Professional-grade security screening with unmatched portability.


The Fisher M-Scope is a professional-grade portable walk-through metal detector designed for law enforcement, event security, and facility screening personnel who need rapid deployment without compromising detection reliability. Its standout feature is full portability—disassembling into a single compact unit and reassembling in minutes—making it ideal for temporary or mobile checkpoints.


Built with a modular design, the M-Scope uses a three-zone detection system with adjustable sensitivity levels to accurately identify metal threats at head, torso, and foot levels. Operators can fine-tune detection thresholds with 100 sensitivity settings, view real-time signal strength via LED bar graphs, and customize audio/visual alerts. The unit supports both AC and battery power, with up to 40 hours of runtime on a single charge, ensuring uninterrupted performance even in remote or power-limited environments.


Engineered for rugged use, the M-Scope weighs only 85 lbs and features a durable frame with built-in outriggers for enhanced stability. The intuitive control panel, password-protected presets, and weather-resistant accessories (available separately) make it as user-friendly as it is field-ready. Whether deployed indoors or out, the M-Scope delivers consistent, dependable security screening wherever it’s needed.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How do I calibrate the M-Scope for different weapon sizes or types?

    To calibrate, adjust the overall sensitivity (0–99) and the individual zone multipliers (0.00–2.00) for top, mid, and bottom zones. A good starting point is overall sensitivity at 20–50%, with zone multipliers at 1.00. Test with representative targets at various body heights to ensure consistent detection.

    Can the M-Scope operate in environments with high electromagnetic interference (EMI)?

    Yes, but performance may be affected. If EMI causes false alarms or reduced sensitivity, reposition the M-Scope at least 3 meters away from EMI sources like motors, AC units, or monitors. You may also rotate the unit 90° to mitigate interference.

    How is the speed of a subject measured and why does it matter?

    The M-Scope uses infrared sensors to calculate the time between entry and exit. If a subject exceeds the configured speed threshold (e.g., 1.0 m/s), a "Speed Violation" is triggered. This ensures subjects aren’t rushing through to bypass detection.

    What are the differences between Factory Presets and User Presets?

    Factory Preset (key 6) offers a default high-sensitivity configuration. User Presets 1–3 (keys 7–9) store custom sensitivity and zone settings. These presets allow rapid switching between detection profiles suited for different threat levels or screening environments.

    What is the best way to test zone alignment during setup?

    Use a known metal object and pass it through each detection zone independently. Watch for corresponding zone LED indicators (top, mid, bottom) to verify proper detection and alignment. Misalignment may require repositioning the panels or adjusting sensitivity values.

    How do I interpret the LED bar graph readings during operation?

    The LED bar graph reflects real-time signal strength from detected targets. A stronger signal (more LEDs lit) correlates with larger or closer metal objects. It helps operators visually verify the presence and intensity of a detection event.

    Can I adjust alarm volume and tone patterns independently?

    Yes. Use key “1” to access the Volume menu. You can set alarm duration (1–4 seconds), select from eight tone patterns, and adjust volume using the up/down arrows. These settings help tailor alerts for noisy or quiet environments.

    How do I ensure consistent operation over long deployments?

    Ensure both batteries are fully charged (40-hour runtime). Rotate usage presets as needed to adapt to environmental drift. Periodically clean optical sensors and inspect contact pins between panels. Avoid direct rain unless using the optional Weather Protective Package.

    What happens if a photo diode becomes blocked or misaligned?

    The system enters a “Blocked” mode and displays a graphic showing the obstructed beam. To resolve, inspect for debris or misalignment. Reassemble panels if necessary and verify clear line-of-sight for all six IR beams.

    How do I secure or reset access codes for the system menu?

    Access codes can be set or changed under the Access Menu (down arrow > access code). Four levels are supported: one Master and three User codes. Lost Master codes require factory reset assistance from Fisher Labs technical support.

    Does the M-Scope have a smart charger?

    Yes, the M-Scope base incorporates a two-step charger, which qualifies it as a "smart" charger.

    What is the M-Scope’s transmit frequency?

    The M-Scope uses Pulse Induction (PI) technology, meaning it does not have a single conventional transmit frequency like VLF metal detectors. Instead, PI technology operates across multiple frequencies. However, the M-Scope does have a Pulse Repetition Frequency, which varies based on regional power environments:

    • 60Hz regions (North America): 180 Hz Pulse Repetition Frequency
    • 50Hz regions (Europe): 150 Hz Pulse Repetition Frequency

    Is the M-Scope safe for individuals with pacemakers?

    Yes, the M-Scope poses no known risk to individuals with pacemakers. Its magnetic field strength is too small to be a concern. Pacemakers are designed to tolerate various types of magnetic interference, and the M-Scope has a long track record of safe operation without any reported issues related to pacemakers.

    '...i pulled the trigger on it just in time to detect the new yard my son was on and all i can say is this machine is one serious coin shooter the first yard I scan with it I get my first silver quarter (1946) and my first Morgan dollar (1900) which was 11in .
