3. VOL (Volume)

Press 

to illuminate the VOL menu icon.

The default volume setting is 7.

Press 

to increase speaker volume. Maximum volume is at setting 20.

Press 

to lower speaker volume. The minimum volume setting is 0, no

sound.

With volume set to 0, the Target-ID, Depth Bar Graph and Iron-Indicator will

function as normal, but the detector will not emit a sound when targets are

detected.

The overload volume signal will always sound off in the event of signal

overload, even with the volume set to 0.

Because  the  TreasureTek  Elite  is  so  sensitive  to  even  the  smallest  iron

targets, the detector incorporates FeTone™, Adjustable Iron Audio, a feature

to reduce the volume of iron targets to minimize user fatigue.

Volume settings 10 - 20 are available to control the volume level of iron

targets.

As you increase volume from 10 to 20, iron-volume changes from silent to

maximum. Note that, depending on the DISC setting, iron targets may

induce V.C.O. tones; in this case, the V.C.O. tones in the iron range (ID 1

- 40) will also have the same reduced volume.
At each of the 10 - 20 volume settings, nonferrous target response is maximum

volume.
Volume control applies only to motion target detection.

Volume  changes  do  not  affect  the  Pinpoint  Mode  volume,  or  the

keypad volume.

HOW DEEP WILL IT GO?

The  TreasureTek  Elite  Metal  Detector  will  detect  a  coin-sized  object  to  a

distance  of  about  24  cm  (9.5”)  from  the  searchcoil  at  maximum  sensitivity.

Large  metal  objects  can  be  detected  to  a  depth  of  more  than  a  meter.

Detectability is directly related to the size of the metal object -- the larger the

object, the deeper it can be detected.

Accuracy of target identification is also related to distance from the searchcoil.

Beyond a distance of 20 cm (8”), the accuracy of target identification begins to

diminish.

2. DISC (Discrimination)

The discrimination system in the TreasureTek Elite is unlike systems in other

metal detectors.
Press 

to illuminate the DISC menu icon.

With each press of 

or 

, the DISC setting changes by one.

Press-and-Hold 

or 

to rapidly advance or reduce the DISC setting.

Target IDs from 1 to 69 can be eliminated from detection. Target IDs from 70 to

79 cannot be eliminated, but the user can change tones in this range.
See the DISCRIMINATION section of the manual for a complete description of

the DISC function.
