TERMINOLOGY
The following terms are used throughout this manual and are standard
terminology among detectorists.
RELIC
A relic is an object of interest by reason of its age or its association with the past.
Many relics are made of iron, but can also be made of bronze or precious
metals.
IRON
Iron is a common low-grade metal that is an
undesirable target in certain metal detecting applications.
Examples of undesirable iron objects are old cans, pipes,
bolts and nails. Sometimes, the desired target is
made of iron. Property markers for instance, contain
iron. Valuable relics can also be composed of iron;
cannon balls, old armaments and parts of old
structures and vehicles can also be composed of iron.
FERROUS
Metals which are made of, or contain iron.
ELIMINATION
Reference to a metal being "eliminated" means that the detector will not emit a
tone, nor display a Target-ID icon when a metal object passes through the
searchcoil's detection field.
DISCRIMINATION
When the detector emits different tones for different
types of metals, and when the detector "eliminates"
certain metals, we refer to this as the detector
"discriminating" among different types of metals.
Discrimination is an important feature of
professional metal detectors. Discrimination
allows the user to ignore trash and otherwise
undesirable objects.
PINPOINTING
Pinpointing is the process of finding the exact location of a buried object. Long-
buried metals can appear exactly like the surrounding soil, and can therefore be
very hard to isolate from the soil.
GROUND CANCELATION
Ground Cancelation is the ability of the detector to ignore, or "see through," the
earth's naturally occurring minerals, and only sound a tone when a metal object
is detected. This detector incorporates proprietary circuitry to eliminate false
signals from many mineralized soils.
