SILVER Range
1¢ 25¢--indicates that the target possibly has a silver content. Some large aluminium coins might register within 1¢ 25¢
category.
TONES
If the detector is set to the ALL METAL target mode, it sounds a single tone when it detects any type of metal. If you set
the detector to the DISC or NOTCH modes, the built in audio identification system sounds a unique audio tone for each of
three categories of metal. This makes it easier to identify the metal being detected.
The detector sounds a low tone when it detects small gold items, nails, bottle caps or nickel items. A medium tone for
aluminium pull tabs, zinc or copper items. A high tone is 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 rusted iron. An arrow appears in medium or high tone area.
Depending on the alloys used to make them, about 15 percent of gold rings cause the detector to sound a medium
tone.

OPERATION
TURNING ON THE DETECTOR
1. Switch the POWER switch to ON. The unit displays all symbols on the LCD screen. The detector sounds low, medium
& high tones respectively. After a few seconds the detector enters stand-by mode.
At this time the LCD displays ALL METAL and SENS. The value of SENS on the segment is 5. The range from MIN to
MAX for DISC/NOTCH is available.
2. SETTING THE OPERATING MODE
The detector comes with three operating modes of ALL METAL, DISC and NOTCH. You can select the desired mode
by pressing the relevant button.
a.
ALL METAL
—used for detecting any type of metal. When the detector detects any type of metal, it sounds a tone.
Note:
When you operate in this mode, controls of DISC and NOTCH do not function, except SENS. To adjust the
sensitivity, first press SENS and UP to increase the sensitivity, then press DN to decrease it.
b.
DISC
—used for target discrimination. You can set the target range from MAX to MIN by pressing DISC/NOTCH and
UP & DN keys. The detector can detect the metal type indicated on the display. Meanwhile the detector ignores other
metal types without displaying on the screen. For example, press DN key, 4 levels on segment from Max to Min is
increased. Now, the detector can detect S- CAPS, 1¢ and also 25¢, other types of metal are ignored.
c.
NOTCH
—to ignore the metal type you do not want. You can select the metal type desired by pressing the UP and DN
keys. The LCD segment will indicate the selected types of metal. The detector will then only detect the selected metal
type.
