BASIC OPERATION (continued)
DEFAULT OPERATION
The detector defaults to ALL METAL mode after powering on. In this mode,
all types of metals will be detected. An object’s probable identification is
indicated by the arrows at the top of the display. In addition, the probable
depth of coin-sized objects is indicated by the large numeric indicator in the
center of the display. All detected objects will cause the depth indicator to
illuminate. The depth indication is not accurate for larger objects; however,
it will provide accurate relative depth indications. The greater the distance
an object is from the search coil, the greater its depth value.
DISC/ ALL-METAL Touch Pad
P ressing this touch pad will
cause the detector to toggle
between two operating modes,
D I S C R I M I N AT I O N and A L L -
METAL. If the detector is in the
ALL-METAL mode (the default
mode), pressing the touch pad
will change the detector into
DISCRIMINATION mode. If the
detector
is
in
the
D I S C R I M I N AT I O N
m o d e ,
p ressing the touch pad will
change the detector into ALL-
METAL mode.
DISCRIMINATION MODE
Discrimination is used to eliminate unwanted objects from detection.
To enter this mode, from ALL-METAL mode, press the DISC/ALL-METAL
touch pad.
After pressing DISC/ALL-METAL, the detector will:
• Beep twice
• Display an "R" under the left-most segment, Iron
Ferrous objects will not be detected in DISCRIMINATION mode.
Heavily oxidized ferrous objects will sometimes, however, be detected,
usually with a high tone and an indication to the right of the target
identification scale.
