BASIC OPERATION
(continued)
ALL METAL MODE
(Default Operation)
The detector defaults to ALL METAL mode after powering on. In this mode,
all types of metals will be detected. An object’s PROBABLE identification is
indicated by the arrows at the top of the display. In addition, the
PROBABLE
depth of coin-sized objects is indicated by the rectangular segment indicators
on the left side of the display. All detected objects will cause the depth indicator
to illuminate. The depth indication is not accurate for larger objects; however,
it will provide accurate relative depth indications. The greater the distance an
object is from the search coil, the greater
its depth value.
DISC/ ALL-METAL Touch Pad
Pressing this touch pad will cause
the detector to toggle between two
operating modes,
DISCRIMINATION
and
ALL-METAL . If the detector is in the
ALL-METAL mode (the default mode),
pressing the touch pad will change the detector into DISCRIMINATION mode .
If the detector is in the
DISCRIMINATION mode
, pressing the touch pad will
change the detector into ALL-METAL mode .
DISCRIMINATION MODE
Discrimination is used to eliminate unwanted objects from detection.
To enter this mode, from ALL-METAL mode , press the DISC/A-M touch pad .
After pressing DISC/A-M , the detector will:
• Beep twice
• Display 3
"R"s under the left-most segments, Iron 1, 2 & 3
Ferrous objects will not be detected in DISCRIMINATION mode .
Heavily oxidized ferrous objects and very large iron objects will sometimes,
however, be detected, usually with a high tone and an indication to the right
of the target indentification scale.
To increase the level of discrimination, press the DISCRIMINATION
▲
touch
pad
. Each time the ▲
pad is depressed, an additional "R" will appear, thus
eliminating from detection the objects which fall into the corresponding
categories.
To decrease the level of discrimination, press the DISCRIMINATION
▼
touch pad
. Each time the
▼
pad
is depressed, an illuminated
"R"
will disappear, thus returning to detection the objects which fall into the
corresponding categories.
Discrimination Mode is a fixed-start-point elimination system. Objects are
cumulatively eliminated as the level of discrimination increases.

PINPOINTING
Accurate pinpointing takes practice
and is best accomplished by
“X-ing”
the target area.
1. Once a buried target is indicated by
a good tone response, continue
sweeping the coil over the target
in a narrowing side-to-side pat-
tern.
2. Take visual note of the place on the
ground where the
“beep”
sounds.
3. Stop the coil directly over this spot
on the ground.
4. Now move the coil straight for-
ward and straight back towards
you a couple of times.
5. Again make visual note of the spot
on the ground at which the
“beep”
sounds.
6. If needed, “X” the target at
different angles to “zero in” on the
exact spot on the ground at which
the
“beep” sounds.
COIL MOVEMENT
When swinging the coil, be careful
to keep it level with the ground about
one inch from the surface.
Never
swing the coil like a pendulum.

NOTE:
This modern Metal Detector is referred to as a Motion Detector since it can
respond to a target only while the searchcoil is being moved over the Target.
