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.

NOTCH MODE

To selectively eliminate a category from detection within the metallic spectrum, use the NOTCH Mode.

Technical Note:

The NOTCH touch pad causes the status of an "R" segment to toggle between ON and OFF.

To use the NOTCH Mode:

The NOTCH touch pad can be depressed at any time. But for first-time use, place the detector in ALL-METAL mode.

A first demonstration is best accomplished as follows:

1)Turn the power OFF.

2)Turn the power ON.

3)Press NOTCH.

A flashing "R" will appear under the IRON-1 segment.

4)Press the DISCRIMINATION touch pad several times. Notice that the "R" moves upon each press of the DISCRIMINATION touch pad.

5)Press NOTCH again.

The flashing "R" will become permanently illuminated.

If an object has been “notched-out”, you can return it to detection status. To “un-notch” a category:

1)Press NOTCH.

2)Move the flashing “R” over the permanently illuminated “R”, using the DISCRIMINATION or touch pads.

3) Press NOTCH again.

ZAP

The ZAP control is a convenient way to eliminate a known undesirable metal object from detection.

To demonstrate the ZAP control:

1) Set the detector in All-Metal Mode

Note: ZAP functions in all motion modes, but is best demonstrated first from the All-Metal Mode.

2) Pass the search coil over an undesirable object.
