AUDIO TARGET IDENTIFICATION

While the LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) is very accurate in identifying buried

objects, the user in the field does not always maintain the display screen in his

field of vision. Therefore, we have incorporated an audio feedback mechanism

to alert the user to the nature of buried objects. This audio feedback system

first alerts the user to the presence and classification of objects, whose nature

and location can be confirmed using the LCD display.

The detector can sound four different tones, depending on the object detected.

BASS TONE

Ferrous objects, such as iron and

steel, will induce a bass tone.

The smallest gold objects can also

induce a bass tone.

LOW TONE

Pull-Tabs, nickels & smaller gold

MEDIUM TONE

Newer pennies (post-1982), larger

gold objects, zinc, small brass

objects, and most bottle screw caps

will induce medium tones. Many

recent vintage foreign curre n c i e s

will induce medium tones.

HIGH TONE

Silver and copper coins, larg e r

brass objects, older pennies (pre-

1982), and highly oxidized metals

will induce high tones. Quarters,

dimes and other precious coins fall

into this category.

Audio Target Identification (ATI) classifies metals into three categories.

LOW TONE

Pull Tabs, Nickels,

& Smaller Gold

MEDIUM TONE

Zinc US Pennies (Post 1982),

Larger Gold Objects, Many

Screw Caps.

HIGH TONE

Copper, Silver & Brass

Copper Pennies (Pre 1982)

BASS TONE

Nails, Iron Objects,

& Smallest Gold Objects
