Discrimination and target identification (T.ID)
Display T.ID (Target Identification)
Adjust the Discrimination level from -6.4 to 99 using + and - (0.0 to 99 for beach pro-
grams).
Increase the discrimination to gradually reject targets with a lower conductivity than the
setting. Example :
• Adjust to 10 to reject items with a target ID lower than 10.
• Adjust to 40 to reject most small aluminum foil.
DEUS II displays deep targets more precisely through its multi-frequency processing that
removes a large proportion of the troublesome ground effects.
The metal target conductivity scale below from -6.4 to 99 will give you an idea of the dis-
play and discrimination range :
To reject unwanted targets with a higher conductivity (aluminum tabs, lead, copper cartridges, etc.), you
will have to accept losing certain desirable metal targets. A more satisfactory alternative is to continue
using a low discrimination level (e.g. discrim. at 8) and use preferably:
• The visual target display for visual discrimination.
• Multi-tone mode for audio discrimination.
• The B.CAPS function (bottle caps) to reject the rusty ferrous caps effectively (Discri > Expert).
By default, the negative zone (-6.4 to 0) is silent because it covers the ground zone and very small ferrous
targets. You can make it audible by lowering the discrimination below 0. In this case, all targets above this
setting will sound like a good target and the low tone reserved for ferrous will become inoperative.
One of the advantages and special features of
is its programs, as they use different combina-
tions of simultaneous frequencies while adapting to multiple ground types (see Programs).
However, a few ferromagnetic targets will generate specific displays on certain programs. These targets
cannot be generalized due to their ferrous components, otherwise there will be a risk of falsifying the dis-
play of all the other targets. E.g. two euro coins (ferromagnetic ring + copper center) will display 80 in the
Diving and Deep HC programs but 75 in all the other programs. Diving and Deep HC use fairly low detect-
ing frequencies from about 4 to 13 kHz, whereas the others include higher frequencies such as 40 kHz.
