Discrimination pattern A two-dimensional pattern made up of shaded and clear regions of
the Smartfind screen. Characteristics of a target are used to
determine its position on a two-dimensional display. A discrimination
pattern is typically a target pattern modified by the user to accept or
reject certain objects through the use of combined targets from the
SELECT menu or created in Advanced mode’s LEARN or EDIT
displays.
Edit One of Explorer II’s Advanced displays. Edit allows the user to
customize an existing discrimination pattern to match preferred target
characteristics.
Ferrous Composed of or containing iron. A ferrous object is one that is
predominantly or completely iron. Ferrous objects (e.g. nails) are
usually not desired by the detectorist.
Full Band Spectrum (FBS) Simultaneous 28 frequency transmission ranging from 1.5kHz to
100 kHz. This range in frequencies means that the signal received
from the detector coil is analyzed from a wide range of responses.
Full screen Target details shown on the full screen with display border and the
other screen elements removed. An icon at the center right of
screen switches to full screen display.
Ground compensation The ability of the detector to compensate for the effects of ground
mineralization.
Handle assembly Part of the detector made up of the control box, handle and armrest.
Inductance The electrical property of a metal target to oppose variations of the
magnetic field. This characteristic is referred to as ferrous content
in Smartfind.
