Identifying Targets Before You Dig 

 
The  Treasure  Commander  TC2X  provides  you  with  two  ways  to  identify  targets  before 

recovering  them.    The  first  is  the  indication  on  the  LCD  screen  via  the  eight  Metal 

Category  segments.    In  addition  to  the  visual  indication,  the  audio  response  will  vary 
based  on  the  type  of  metal  that  has  been  located.    The  four  tones  and  the  metals  that 

correspond to each are defined below: 
 

 

Bass  Tone

:  Ferrous  metals  such  as  nails,  smaller  bolts,  stainless  steel,  cast  iron 

and very small pieces of gold 

 

Low Tone

: Tinfoil, aluminum, nickels, newer pull tabs (rectangular style) and some 

gold jewelry 

 

Medium Tone

: Older pull tabs (winged style), bottle and screw caps, newer U.S. 

pennies  (post  1982),  newer  Canadian  $1  and  $2  coins,  small  silver  jewelry,  most 

gold jewelry and military artifacts such as bullets and buttons 

 

High  Tone

:  Older  pennies  (pre-1982),  dimes,  quarters,  half  dollars,  dollars,  and 

silver jewelry 

 

Using the GPS Function 

 

The Treasure Commander TC2X incorporates Global Positioning System (GPS) technology 
which allows you to relocate sites that you have discovered. 

 

To  save  the  coordinates  of  a  site  you  want  to  revisit,  press  the  "

GPS

"  touchpad.    A 

message  prompting  you  save  the  location  will  appear  on  the  LCD  screen.    Press  the 

ENTER

 touchpad and then use the arrow keys (

 and 

) to name the location for 

easy reference.  Each name can have up to eight characters. 

 

To return to a saved location, press the "GPS" touchpad and use the 

 or 

 touchpads to 

scroll through list of saved locations.  When you find the location you want to visit, press 

the 

ENTER

 touchpad. 

 

The GPS icon (upper right circle on the LCD screen) will 
show you which direction to head with an arrow and how 

many yards remain to the location. 

 
The arrow and distance will change as you approach the 

location.
