TERMINOLOGY

The following terms are common terminologies about metal detector.

Motion Mode

One of the metal detector’s modes. It means you have to move the coil

continuously during detecting. In generally, motion mode can reduce the effect of the

soil mineralization with better distinction ability.

Non-motion Mode

The other mode of the metal detector. You don’t need to move the search coil

continuously during detection. Metal will be detected once the coil approaches it at a

certain distance. In the non-motion mode, the detector can’t distinct metal types.

Elimination

It’s a setting to eliminate a certain metal. The detector won’t signal on the

specific metal, like light, sound.

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. It’s an important feature of

professional metal detectors. This mode could allow you to ignore trash and

undesirable object.

Iron

Iron is common metal. It’s usually not the detection target, undesirable iron

objects contains such as iron nail, bolts, old cans, caps and so on. But some valuable

relics may also be made of iron, such as old armaments, old armature and so on.

Ferrous

Metals made of iron or contain iron.

Trash metals

Caps, pull-tabs, bottle-caps from beverage containers are the most bothersome

trash items for treasure hunters, which you should eliminate during detecting. But

some other valuable objects have a similar magnetic field with the above trash metals,

and will also be eliminated as trash when discriminating.

Pinpoint

Pinpoint is the process of determining the exact location of the buried metal

object. As in the motion mode, you need to move the search coil continuously when

detecting, but it’s hard to determine the exact location of the buried metals. In the

Pinpoint mode, please use Non-motion mode to align the center of search coil with
