4. Sensitivity

Tone ID

—The Metal detector produces three distinct tones based on a 

target’s metal type and conductivity.

Note: 

This  is  the  preset  notch  discrimination  pattern  for  the 

COINS

  mode. 

Choose one from five preset discrimination patterns or use the 

CUSTOM

 mode 

to save a personal pattern.

JEWELRY Mode

—Designed to find jewelry such as rings, bracelets, watch-

es, and necklaces, while ignoring most iron trash.

CUSTOM Mode

—It can be programmed by the user and the metal detec-

tor will save the changes when the detector is switched off. The factory 
preset for the 

CUSTOM

 mode is the same as the 

COINS

 mode. Beginning 

with this discrimination pattern, press 

DISCRIM

 and 

Enter

 buttons to 

customize the mode as desired. 

RELICS Mode

—Designed to eliminate small iron pieces, while detecting 

valuable targets within the range of the lower conductivity, such as lead, 
brass and bronze.

COINS Mode

—Designed to find most types of coins and to eliminate 

common trash items such as iron and foil. Some desired items similar to 
foil may also be eliminated. The detector may respond to some buried junk 
targets, such as aluminum cans.

NON IRON Mode

—Designed to find valuable targets, such as brass, silver 

and gold, and eliminate all kinds of iron trash.

Use the 

(↑)

 or

 (↓)

SENSITIVITY

 buttons to increase or decrease the sensitiv-

ity of the detector, with eight (8) levels. Increase the sensitivity when search-
ing targets that are too small or buried deeply below the earth. Decrease the 
sensitivity when the detector is working erratically (due to excessive metallic 
trash, highly mineralized soils, electrical interference or the presence of other 
metal detectors). Under this situation, the erratic operation cannot be 
resolved with discrimination.

· 

A/M

‒Detect every type of metal. All 12 cursors are displayed with no metals 

discriminated. Use this mode to find all metal items or when the material of the 
desired object is unknown. Switch to the 

A/M

 mode to help in locating a target. 

When its signal is inconsistent, it may mean that a trash target is close to a good 
target.

Headphone Jack

—Use any headphones with a plug of 3.5mm.

Targets with high conductivity (the value is larger than 60) produce a 
unique bell-tone signal.

Targets with medium to low conductivity (the value is between 40 and 60) 
produce a medium-pitched signal.

Ferrous targets (the value is less than 40) produce a low-pitch signal.

Use the MODE buttons to select the six modes.
