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 large numeric indicator in the center 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/ A-M 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 an "R" under the left-most segment, Iron

Ferrous objects will not be detected in DISCRIMINATION mode. Heavily oxidized ferrous objects will sometimes, however, be detected, usually with a high tone and an indication to the right of the target identification scale.
