REJECTED TARGET
When “X” appears under a target
category, objects falling into this
category are eliminated from
detection. This feature is
commonly referred to as target
discrimination.
With each press of the TARGET
REJECT touch pad, you will
progressively eliminate, from left to right, the common, less
desirable, targets. When all three “X” are illuminated, the next press
will erase all “X”s, returning the detector to all-metal detection status,
where all types of metals will be detected.
