Tips for listening in DISCRIMINATION mode
◆
Most iron and steel objects emit a low tone, but on occasion
when the iron is highly oxidized, you might hear a high tone. For
example, some rusted bottle caps will emit a high tone and
appear under the
SILVER RANGE
in the
Probable Target ID
fields. You can prevent this from happening by selecting the size
of iron to eliminate. See To customize targets section of this
manual for instructions on how to set progressive iron
discrimination levels.
◆
All nickels and many gold items emit a low tone, but some larger
gold objects emit a medium tone, depending on purity. These
objects will appear in the
GOLD RANGE
in the
Probable Target
ID
fields, unless you’ve selected to reject this range.
◆
Old and new pull tabs usually emit a medium or low tone. A
Beaver Tail (pull tab broken in half) or a bent, folded or highly
oxidized pull tab may emit a low tone.
ALL METAL Mode
In the
ALL METAL
mode, the volume of one continuous medium tone
increases when the Land Ranger‘ detects metal. The detector does not
have to be in motion in this mode.
▲
To select ALL METAL mode
1. Perform the steps described in Turning the Detector ON section of
this manual.
2. Press the
ALL METAL SMART TRAC
touch pad.
gb
appears briefly in the
TARGET
readout, followed by
rY
indicating that the unit has measured the ground and is ready for
operation in
ALL METAL
mode), as shown in the following diagram
.
Note that since targets cannot be
rejected in this mode, there are no
Rs under the probable ID types.
3. If
rY

to another area.
