TARGET IDENTIFICATION NUMBER
Target Identification (Target ID) numbers range from –19 to
99 with ferrous (iron) targets ranging from –19 to 0�
When a target is detected, it is represented as a number
that appears on the Target Identification Number field
on the display� This indicates the target’s ferrous or
non-ferrous properties for quick and easy identification�
For example, a US quarter has a Target ID of 89� This
means that each time a Target with an ID of 89 is detected,
there is a good chance that it will be a US quarter
A Target ID number appears when a target is detected� This example shows
the detection of a shallow US quarter� The corresponding Target ID Segment
flashes upon detection (flashing segment shown in grey)�
The last detected Target ID remains on the display for five
seconds or until another target is detected�
Note: Some non-ferrous targets display a negative ID if
there is an adjacent ferrous target�
Target ID Accuracy
Multi-IQ technology gives greater Target ID accuracy and
increased detecting performance, especially in heavily
mineralised ground� In benign ground, a single frequency
may perform adequately, however depth and stable
Target IDs will be limited by ground noise�
Multi-IQ simultaneous multi-frequency will achieve
maximum depth with a very stable target signal� In
mineralised ground, single frequencies will not be able to
effectively separate the target signal from the ground
signal, giving decreased results� Multi-IQ will still detect at
depth, losing a minimal amount of Target ID accuracy
If there is no detection or the detector passes over a
target that it rejects, the display shows two large dashes�
Two large dashes on the Target Identification Number
field when there is no detection�
DISCRIMINATION SCALE
The circular Discrimination Scale corresponds to the 119
Target IDs� Accepted (detected) targets are shown as
visible segments, and will flash when a target with that ID
is detected� Rejected (non-detected or ‘blanked’) targets
are turned Off
Discrimination Segments are turned On (accepted) or Off
(rejected) to create Discrimination Patterns�
You can discriminate between desired and undesired
targets that appear along the Discrimination Scale
Therefore you only hear target signals from those you want
to find, and unwanted targets are ignored�
You can do this by the following methods:
Accepting/Rejecting detected targets upon detection
using the Accept/Reject button� See "Accept or Reject
Targets Upon Detection" on page 36
Creating a discrimination pattern via Accept/Reject
in the Settings Menu� See "Creating a Discrimination
Pattern" on page 36
