NORMAL DISC MODE

When rejection of a full range of other non-ferrous trash is desired, the NORMAL DISC mode will be necessary. Make sure the ALL METAL GROUND ADJUST is OFF; that is, fully counterclockwise until it “clicks” into the “0” position. The IRON toggle switch must also be OFF. Adjust the NORMAL DISC knob to reject the unwanted “trash” targets (see figure 2). When the NORMAL DISC is set at “0”, all metals will be detected. As you turn the NORMAL DISC knob clockwise, certain metals will be re- jected. At the full setting of “10”, most iron, foil, and aluminum will be rejected, while copper and silver will still yield a good signal. Adjust your sensitivity clockwise to the desired level (preferably until a slight thresh- old tone is heard, at about “8” or greater). Reduce the sensitivity slightly if you prefer silent search. In high trash areas, turning the SILENCER toggle ON will reduce, and in most cases, eliminate the “clicks and pops” that result from some rejected targets. Remember that the NORMAL DISC mode is a MOTION mode. Slight movement of the coil is required to detect an object. When NORMAL DISC is the primary operating mode, pushing the MODE TRIGGER forward switches the 1270 into the IRON DISC mode.
