CONTROL FUNCTIONS
Iron Discriminate (All Metal/Disc)
Figure 4.18
Selects between discrimination or to turn off the discrimination altogether
(All Metal).
In All Metals, the detector will give varying volume and pitch signals but
this information does not indicate the type of metal in the object.
In Disc, a strong response from a ferrous (iron) object will cause the
threshold to be 'blanked' or silenced.
NOTE If the target response is too weak for accurate
discrimination, the detector will give a normal target signal.
Level Adjust
Figure 4.19
Level adjust gives the user the ability to select the sensitivity
and likelihood of a target being ferrous or non-ferrous.
It also affects how the detector recognises mineral effects in the ground,
as opposed to metal targets, when 'ground balancing'.
NOTE It is important that you read pages 37 and 38 in
Chapter 5 for more information.
Soil (Normal/Sensitive/Salt)
Figure 4.20
Optimises the detector for different soil conditions and targets by changing
the signal processing.
• N (Normal) may be used in all areas, including areas with highly
mineralised soil. This position has very good sensitivity to a wide
range of nugget sizes and is the most versatile of the three positions.
