detectors.
Work in lower discrimination mode, set by DISCRIMINATOR switch, is recommended only in
extreme necessity. So if the terrain allows it, it is recommended always to work under a mode
"III". In mode "III", the metal detector has the lowest, but the safest discrimination. Working
in small mode, for example "II" or "I", only makes sense when mode "III" is insufficient to
comfortably search. These are situations in which the aim is ignoring at a greater degree of the
characteristics of the terrain, such as highly contaminated terrains, terrains with a high content
of ore and slag, and areas with hot rocks. In mode "I", the metal detector muted in most the
response signal caused by the ore and slag.
When is detected metal object, the consistent switching in different modes of the DISCRIMINATOR
switch, allows examination of the detected object at different levels of discrimination and at different
behavior of the metal detector. Thus, relatively easily, may become more complete idea for the
detected object.
The specific behavior of the metal detector at the appropriate mode of the DISCRIMINATOR switch,
depends and from the current settings of the DISCR LEVEL and DISCR DEPTH potentiometers.
Therefore, the optimal setting of discrimination is different for each terrain and can only be achieved
with practice and knowledge of the metal detector and the terrain.
It is recommended to work at possible higher mode of DISCRIMINATOR switch. Working at less than
real proper mode of discrimination, selected by DISCRIMINATOR switch, in combination with set at a
higher levels DISCR LEVEL and DISCR DEPTH potentiometers, may lead to rejection of signals from
small or deeply buried non-ferrous metals, especially when they are at great depth in mineralized
terrains, or under mineralized ceramics and/or mineralized stones.
