Toggle Switch
The TOGGLE selects between the two operating
modes DISC and ALL METAL.
DISC
is the most common operating mode and will pro-
vide one of three distinctive tones depending upon
the metal type.
Low tone (broken or inconsistent) indicates iron or
steel.
Medium tone indicates jewelry/nickel. Lead and
medium size aluminum also indicate in this me-
dium tone category. An operator must dig lead and
medium aluminum in order to successfully recover
jewelry.
High tone indicates copper/silver coin range. Large
aluminum (pop cans) may also indicate in this high
tone range.
ALL METAL
This position responds to all types of metals with
the same tone “beep”.
All Metal may detect deeper in some areas when
compared to the DISC mode.
Pinpointing is best completed in the All Metal
mode. Although some slight motion of the loop is
required for continued detection, the degree of mo-
tion is very minimal.
The LED display will still indicate target category
regardless of the TOGGLE position.
Setting of the GROUND control is recommended
in the All Metal mode.
RESET
This position resets or clears the LED display lights
and while being held in RESET switches from
DISC to All Metal.
It is not necessary to reset the LED display during
normal searching. Each new target will automati-
cally reset the LED and provide a new indication.
An operator may want to reset the LED display and
sweep a particular target a second time during test-
ing or experimentation.
Primarily, the RESET is used to momentarily ac-
cess the All Metal mode for quick pinpointing.
Once released, the TOGGLE will automatically
return to the DISC position.
