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.
