TARGET ID
The X-TERRA has a number of different icons
that have been designed to best represent and
identify the metal objects in the ground.
Target ID
Buried metal objects are referred to as targets.
As the coil is passed over a target, it detects
its conductivity and displays this as a number.
Target Identification (ID) is used to distinguish
one type of metal target from another.
Target ID numbers range from –4 to 44 on
the X-TERRA 305 and –9 to 48 on the X-TERRA
505. Negative numbers represent ferrous
targets and positive numbers represent
nonferrous targets.
The last detected target ID stays on the
display until another target is detected. If the
detector passes over a target that it rejects, the
display will return to a blank detection screen
represented by 2 dashes.
Discrimination segment
Another identifier of metal objects, each segment
refers to a certain type of metal signal. Segments
can be turned off (to accept targets) or turned on
(to reject targets) which in turn accepts or rejects
signals from the corresponding metal objects.
(A grey icon on the diagrams in this manual
represents a flashing icon on the detector.)
Target ID
The numeric identifier of
a particular metal object
underneath the ground.
Depth indicator
A guide to how deep a
metal object is under the
ground. The more arrows
displayed, the deeper the
object is likely to be from
the coil.
