PINPOINT
Press and hold
to activate this feature
This is a static detection mode; no coil
motion over the target is required to
detect metal while pinpoint is depressed.
This feature is most effective for
pinpointing the exact location of small
buried objects. Reduced sensitivity, and
thus a smaller search field, can be
achieved by pressing the
pad while an object is in the coil’s
detection field. The greatest sensitivity to large, deeply-buried objects is
achieved with this mode.

categories from detection.

Each press of DISC
will change the status of a target category
(starting with iron, from left to right). If an icon was previously
illuminated, indicating inclusion, then it will disappear, indicating
that it is now eliminated from detection. If an icon was previously
turned off, then it will reappear, indicating inclusion.

Only one category can be notched at a time.

4-TONE AUDIO SYSTEM
While the LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) is very accurate in identifying
buried objects, the user in the field does not always maintain the
display screen in his field of vision. Therefore, we have incorporated an
audio feedback mechanism to alert the user to the nature of buried
objects. This audio feedback system first alerts the user to the presence
and classification of objects, whose nature and location can be
confirmed using the LCD display.
The 4-tone audio target identification system functions only in the motion
modes of operation. The detector must be in the DISCRIMINATION
mode, as indicated on the display. In PINPOINT mode, the detector will
emit only a monotone sound.
The detector can sound four different tones, depending on the object
detected.

Ferrous objects, such as iron and steel, will induce a low tone.
The smallest gold objects can also induce a low tone.

Newer pennies (post-1982), larger gold objects, zinc, and small
brass objects, will induce medium tones. Many recent vintage
non-U.S. currencies will induce medium tones.

Silver and copper coins, larger brass objects and older pennies
(pre-1982), will induce high tones. Quarters, dimes and other
precious coins fall into this category.
