Cursor indicating the ID of the detected target and its position on the ID 

scale. It also indicates the IDs masked by ID FILTER and NOTCH FILTER as 

well as the tone breakpoints.
Target ID scale
Search mode indicator
Section which shows the TARGET ID during search, the ground balance 

value during ground balance adjustment and the estimated target depth 

during the pinpoint process. Also, the numeric value of any setting selected 

from the menu is displayed in this field.
Section which shows the fine tuning value during ground balance 

adjustment and current ground balance value during search. TRACKING 

on/off status is also shown in this section.
