LCD IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM
The LCD will also show you an indication of the type of target you
have found, in conjunction with the audio tones, by showing you
a number preceded by a “-” or “+” sign. The target identification
system works as follows:
When in either search mode (ALL METAL or DISC), a target
will produce a number between 0 and 36 indicating target
type.
In addition, the - or + sign in front of the number
indicates whether the target is ferrous in nature
(an iron target) “-” / or nonferrous (a non-iron target) “+”.
The target I.D. numbers correspond
to the following target types:
All negative (-) numbers: Iron
+0 to +8:
Foil
+9 to +11:
Nickel
+17 to +18:
Square Tab/Brass
+20 to +22:
Zinc Pennies
+28 to +30:
Copper pennies, dimes
+30 to +34:
Quarters
+34 to +36
Silver
Remember, this Numeric I.D. system is activated in either
the All-Metal or Disc. modes (although the 4-tone audio
I.D. is only active in the Disc. mode).
Also, the discriminator can silence the audio for certain
targets, but the two-digit I.D. will always reveal the target
identity.
