Target indicators
1) Numeric ranges of target:
IRON:
00-05
5 :
06-17
P-TAB:
18-26
ZN:
27-38
1 :
39-62
25 :
63-99
NOTE: There are a wide variety of metals and no target can be identified for certain until
unearthed. This table is for general reference only.
2) Types of target:
IRON: It indicates that the target is probably iron.
5 : It indicates that the target is probably 5 or a nickel. Some small gold rings might
register within this range.

Tones
The detector comes with three tones for different types of metal. But the built in audio
identification system sound a unique tone for each of three categories of metal. This
makes it easier to identify the metal being detected. A low tone is for IRON, 5 , same as
for foil, bottle cap or nickels. A medium tone if ´´s for P-TAB, ZN, 1 (aluminium pull
tabs, zinc or copper items). A high tone is for 25 , same as for brass or silver items.
NOTES: When you set the detector to DISC or NOTCH mode, the detector sounds a
medium or high tone when it detects highly oxidized iron.
Depending on the quality, about 15 percent of gold rings cause the detector to sound a
medium tone.
