BARSKA BE11642 Elite Edition Metal Detector - Manual (Page 9)

9
TONES
If the detector is set to the ALL METAL target mode, it sounds a single tone
when it detects any type of metal. If you set the detector to the DISC or
NORTCH modes, the built in audio identification system sounds a unique audio
tone for each of three categories of metal. This makes it easier to identify the
metal being detected.
Tone Detects
Low Tone Foil, nails, bottle caps and/or nickels
Medium Tone Pull tabs, zinc and/or copper items
High Tone Brass and/or silver items
Notes:
• When you set the detector to DISC or NOTCH mode, the detector
sounds a medium or high tone when it detects highly oxidized iron. An
arrow appears in medium or high tone area.
• Depending on the quality, about 15 percent of gold rings cause the
detector to sound a medium tone.
