Target Identification and Discrimination
The Bounty Hunter Junior T.I.D. metal detector can both identify buried metals
by category, and eliminate unwanted metals from detection.
“Discrimination” refers to the detector’s ability to both identify targets and
eliminate them from detection. When a Target ID category has been eliminated
from detection, we say it has been “discriminated out.”
Target Identification (T.I.D.)
The Junior T.I.D. can distinguish between three categories of metal targets:
1. Ferrous:
this includes many
iron targets such as nails,
screws, bolts and some large
iron objects like horseshoes.
The Junior T.I.D. will respond
with a low-pitch audio tone
and display the
icon:
2. Non-ferrous low conductor:
this includes US nickels, many
rings and small jewelry but
also includes many trash
items such as tin foil, pull tabs,
screw caps and bottle caps.
The Junior T.I.D. will respond
with a medium-pitch audio
tone and display the
icon:
3. Non-ferrous high conductor:
This includes most copper and
silver coins, as well as modern
clad coins. The Junior T.I.D. will
respond with a high-pitch
audio tone and display the
icon:
Discrimination Settings
When the Junior T.I.D. is turned
on, all three categories are
enabled, meaning it will detect
all metal targets. By pressing
you can eliminate target
categories.
Press
once
to eliminate
ferrous (iron)
targets.
Pressing
again will also
eliminate low
conductor non-
ferrous targets.
Pressing
a
third time will
return the Junior
T.I.D. to the
default state and
detect all metals.

Could be something good?
The good stuff!
