Target ID and ID Filtering
It may take some time and experience to utilize the Target ID feature in your search area
because Target IDs as well as the depths the IDs are generated by different brands and
models of detectors are also different.
As indicated before, ID FILTER feature is the ability of the device to perform search without
producing warning tones for unwanted metals. ID FILTER feature is not active in the All
Metal mode. ID FILTER values of discrimination modes are preset. Users may modify the ID
FILTER values from the menu anytime.
In order to change the ID FILTER value, select the ID FILTER option from the menu and
decrease or increase the value using the + or - buttons. Please remember that you can miss
certain metals, other than the ones you want to ignore, or signals may become weaker
when performing this action.
For instance, when you set the ID FILTER to 40, the device will ignore all reflected signals
with an ID lower than 40 and will not provide a warning tone. In the case that the ID of a
target under a rock is reflected under 40, the device will not detect the target.
To give another example, in the case of receiving multiple IDs - let's say 35 and 55 - due to
target orientation or metal property, if you filter the IDs up to 40, 35 will fall in the filtered
range so the signal strength may diminish and depth may decrease.
